Rammstein

Rammstein is a six-man band from Germany. They were formed in 1994 after East German escapee Richard Z. Kruspe wanted to make music that mixed musical grooves with a machine-like sound, which they'd later describe as "Tanz-Metall", and gathered the rest of the group to bring it about. They take their name from the Ramstein Air Force Base where an airshow ended in disaster when three planes collided mid-air in 1988, adding an extra 'm' by mistake, though the band insists they took the name for a kind of battering ram once they got popular. Their stateside popularity began in 1997, when a couple of their songs were featured in David Lynch's Lost Highway, and the song "Du Hast" became a smash hit.

The band is notable for their absolutely absurd and spectacle-driven live shows that feature impressive pyrotechnic displays and plenty of Audience Participation Songs, to the point where Till lets the crowd sing some songs in their entirety.

The song example is "Ich Will".
