My favorite metal group is Riot, and i agree with thunderfoot with the no music would be here if it wasnt for the oldies but goodies.
just had to check that one out (like the song, never checked the translated lyrics for it) and yeah, pretty bad. Stein Um Stein is, frankly, more disturbing - I mean, c'mon, saying you're going to take your love and put her into the foundation of a house and build it up around her stone by stone is just a little creepy. Really aweseom song though - reminds of of 'Purity' by Slipknot, which is my favourite song by themJohn Q. Mayhem said:Weisses Fliesch is worse
I don't listen to them, but I hear that GWAR could kick alotta butt in this area of vileness. Yick.John Q. Mayhem said:And I'll pit "So What?" against any Rammstein for crazy vileness. But Rammstein's still darn vile.
'atta boyJohn Q. Mayhem said:EDIT: I love 'em anyways
Nyaricus said:I also love Rammstein Personally, my absolute favourites at: Mein Hertz Brent, Feuer Frei!, Moskau, Stein Um Stein, Rosenrot, Spring, Engel and Spiel Mit Mirr. I find their slower songs are some of their better ones, but I like all of their styles. So good all-around though
However, some really messed up lyrics (I'll let some of you more adventurous ones figure out the translations for Spiel Mit Mirr or Zwitter)
Close - Te Quiero Puta is it's proper name - and I'd have to say that it threw me off the first time as well. Of course, Amerika is an English/German song of which I hadn't beenaware of until I bought the CD 'Reise Reise' so hearing him sing in English was like *jawdrop*Dog Moon said:I just heard a song recently by them call Te Quiero Punta [I THINK, though I might have spelled them wrong]. Hearing Rammstein sing in Spanish is just weird.
I like Du Hast as well, though it's not my favorite. Just the first song of theirs I've ever heard. I've been in a total Rammstein mood recently and have listened to them a LOT. Had they been in English, I think I could prolly sing them by heart by now.
That's pretty much what I was thinking, and I'd say alt over prog (with the latter being represnted by such bands as the forementioned Dream Theater, and King Crimson et al), but as I said before, I find the ever-increasing proliferation of subgenres etc. a bit bewildering at times.LightPhoenix said:A Perfect Circle is definitely not metal. They fall somewhere into the rock category... I'd either go with alt rock or prog rock.
Nyaricus said:>>>Actually my friend and I were talking about Rammstein last week and he was saying that DU Hast has to be one of the the dumbest, coolest singles out there by any metal band. How many english-speaking bands could get away with singing over and over again "you. you hate. you hate me." and making it actually sound good? Not many.
John Q. Mayhem said:I hated that song when I thought it was just "You. You hate. You hate me." Then I read the lyrics, noticed some stuff I'd been missing, and discovered that it's a song about a man about to be married running away at the alter!
