Rammstein Artist Snapshot:

German Industrial powerhouse Rammstein made a gloriously cantankerous racket upon their arrival on U.S. soil at the tail end of the 90s. Their monolithic, clattering machinery truly re-defined "heavy metal," and their disciplined, Teutonic demeanor brought a dark, bondage-influenced tint to an already dark genre. Fire-breathing live spectacles and unsettling videos made them a multimedia brand name, despite recording almost totally in their native tongue, and appearing on the soundtrack for maverick filmmaker David Lynch's LOST HIGHWAY put them over the top internationally. As noisy and efficient as a tank factory, Rammstein's final product has almost as much firepower.

Review

Spin (5/01, pp.144-5) - 6 out of 10 - "...'SPROCKETS'-meets-James Hettfield on fire....bizarre proof that one hit weirdness out-bizarred underground high-concept time and time again..."
Entertainment Weekly (4/6/01, p.120) - "...Sternly self-parodic, headbanging horror rock at its finest..." - Rating: B+
Alternative Press (6/01, p.81) - 4 out of 5 - "...Chock-full of red-faced thrills....one of the few metal albums just as suited for knocking boots in the bedroom as it is for knocking heads in the pit."
CMJ (4/9/01, p.5) - "...The band largely pull from the same bag of tricks that it used on 1998s SEHNSUCHT: Metallica-esque riffs, Gothic string pads, growling...The difference is that this time they've stepped-up their songwriting and production..."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.52) - "Imbuing their sound with a cinematic scope previously absent from their works, MUTTER is a stirring record."

Title Note

Rammstein: Christoph Schneider, Christian Lorenz, Richard Z. Kruspe-Bernstein, Till Lindemann, Paul Lander, Oliver Riedel.

Additional personnel includes: Khira Li (spoken vocals); Gunter Joseck (condutor); Film Orchestra Babelsberg (strings); Florian Ammon (programming); Bobo (background vocals).

Engineers include: Ulf Kruckenberg, Michael Schubert.

Recorded at Miraval, France; Galaxy, Belgium; Nukleus, Saal 1 Studios, Berlin, Germany.

Where Germany's Rammstein explored a sinister, electronic-oriented sound in their previous work, MUTTER finds the doyens of doom turning more "organic," if no less ominous. In place of techno beats and synthesizers, this album offers crunching electric guitars and pounding drums, offset by operatic backing vocals and orchestral washes. The whole affair is awash with an almost Wagnerian sense of grandeur and an undeniable darkness.

The unsettling aspects of MUTTER are underscored by Rammstein's vocals, which highlight the most guttural aspects of the German language, and the gloomy industrial-rock feel that pervades the album. It's clearly the band's intention to disturb, an agenda achieved with flying colors on this album, which looms large with barely suppressed rage and other ugly emotions rising to the sonic surface.
