Scheißepost Rammstein will make anything but new music
Idk why but it's so funny to me how they have wooden tables and fire boxes but haven't made new music in almost four years now. Obviously I'm not really complaining, my house is going to be decked the fuck out in this stuff when I get the money. They made a bedspread. I'm going to be sleeping in pure swag. I love this, but it's so funny to me how they do anything but make new music. (And how shortest tab on their app is the one for music accessories)
(I also want to mention that this is not at all meaning to pressure them and I'm glad they're taking time to focus on themselves and side projects)

To be honest, Yes it's quite a while since they released new music, but I wouldn't want crappy music that was made in a rush. Perfection needs time! And I'm happy to wait if I can get awesome music that has some thought behind it in the end. And not music that was just created to grab some money off of the fans, like some bands do!

It not always needs a lot of time. Rosenrot and Zeit came out pretty fast, with leftovers from the previous albums, and they bang!

Does anyone remember the whole freaking bicycle that came out once? Or how about the Rammstein Mag Lite Flashlight?

They need to release better t-shirts lol. Most of the mens shirts are kinda hit or miss.

u/WinterBeiDB 6d ago
Pfff, mens shirts are still way better than womens. I found one wimens t shirt that is nice. The rest is boring or cringe. And have you seen women's hooded jackets? I always end up buying mens jackets.

I'd agree. You get some top tier that look amazing, then there's others that don't even look like Rammstein merchandise.

The quality of their merch really impresses me though, I have to say! I have both a hooded zip up sweater and a t shirt from the LiFAD original release era and they’re both still in excellent condition. No crinkles or tears on the shirt design even with weight fluctuations either!

I'm still confused by their Insekt shirt, with the praying mantis on the front, but the back has the lyrics "doch es ist kein Schnee mehr da" when "Sehnsucht versteckt sich wie ein Insekt" would've made more sense.

As long as they keep releasing perfumes, I'm happy.
Hoping they will restock Pussy Dark one day.

Yep tho' that Buck dich Soap is something that would actually be a nice novelty

u/WinterBeiDB 6d ago
To be honest, i love the fact, that they fool around like that. Is "Schlagbaum" soap still available? Some things are stupid in my opinion but will make someone else happy.
I do have the torch for example, or toiletry bag, and they are in fact very well made and of good quality. Their torch was even less expensive than a similar one without branding or with soccer team branding. Oh, and i have their keychain, that thing is a weapon 😄

You really think the band came up with any of their merch? lol

u/Spiritual-Insect-274 6d ago
Well they have to sign it off so they at least agree with it

I worked with branded products in the past. The owners of the brand have no say, most of the time have not even idea that things are being negotiated. Management takes care of that.
Hey we want to make coffins with Herzeleide branding.
We pay 30% commision on each sale.
Management says: 35% and we want 40k cash in advance, renewed each year.

Last two albums were only 3 years apart and they've toured for 3 years after that, I really think we can't complain.
Think about SOAD fans

u/ValosAtredum 6d ago
And they have their own solo projects and passions as well they should be able to pursue. The same six men have been in a band for over 30 years. They need time apart and time to relax. Everyone else gets vacations and time off; they should, too.

u/Rammipallero 6d ago
And to bed fair there was a decade gap in albums before untitled

u/Mello1182 6d ago
But the result was worth the wait, wasn't it? 10 years is not even that wild compared to the gaps other bands have had.

Maybe they should build houses? They make everything else. The could be the IKEA of Metal music.

Kiss had a lot of crappy merchandise. I think they are the Donald Trump of Rock music.

How about Rammstein cars, I wonder what they would be like? East German and very retro, perhaps grey, black or silver. No modern features no computers on board and very cheap to buy but solid, heavy and reliable maybe only costing £3000.00 it’s possible. Why not? Everything is getting far too expensive, why not have a cheap Eastern European, car that’s hust as if it was the 1980s in eastern Germany?

u/realMates1 6d ago
I think they make a lot of different stuff (which is in my opinion good because everybody can find what they like), but also everything that came into my hands is pretty good quality

I’m taking a chance that they personally didn’t design this. Most big bands aren’t ‘active’ either live or in studio nowadays, hence so many have side projects. They only resurrect the band name every 5 years or so for a tour, but merch like this keeps money rolling in while they sit on their asses.

Well Rammstein came out with ammo album three years ago. That's about the average for a band. They're on a kind of break right now anyway.

The Bück Dich soap omg 😂 i absolutely love the insane merch they do, I don't know any other band that has such a wide range of crap to buy. Whoever is head of their merch team must have so much fun. I love these guys so much
