1576 Rammstein - Rammstein

1576 Rammstein - Rammstein

From: Herzeleid, Year: 1995
Genre: Neue Deutche Härte/Industrial Metal

About three weeks ago I picked Rammstein's new single and since then that post shot itself into my top ten most viewed posts of all time, which is quite fast. Usually popular posts take at least ten months to a year to get there, but I guess you should never underestimate Rammstein. Anyway, I figured I would pick another one of their songs to mark the occasion.
This song of the band's namesake, of course, hails from their first album and is actually one of the first songs written by the band. It was written about the Ramstein Airshow Disaster, which happened in 1988. From what I've read many believe that the band was named after the event as well, however the band has denied that assertion.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
