Rammstein is a German NDH band formed in 1994

★★★★★ Their musical style incorporates elements of metal/hard rock and electronic music. Their songs are performed almost exclusively in German. They have sold over 10 million records worldwide.

Rammstein's entire catalogue is published by BMG Music Publishing. Rammstein was started by Richard Z. Kruspe in 1994. In 1989 he escaped from East Germany over the border between Austria and Hungary where he eventually ended up in West Berlin and started a band in 1991 (Orgasm Death Gimmicks). At that time he was very influenced by American music and after the wall came down, he moved back home to Schwerin where Till Lindemann worked as a basket-weaver and played drums in the garage-rock band First Arsch.

At this time, Richard lived with Oliver "Ollie" Riedel (of the The Inchtabokatables) and Christoph "Doom" Schneider (of Die Firma). Richard realized that the music he had previously made was not right for him. He envisioned something with machines and hard guitars together. The three started working together on a new project.

Richard soon found it hard to write music and lyrics at the same time. He got the both strong and poetic Till to join them as he had often heard him singing while working. A contest for new bands was announced and the prize was studio time. The four of them recorded the first Rammstein demo and won. Paul H. Landers knew them all and wanted to know what they were doing. After listening, he agreed to join. At this point, all they needed for the machine-sound was a keyboardist. They tried to get Christian "Flake" Lorenz to join, as he had played with Paul before in the punk-rock band Feeling B. Flake was not entirely thrilled with the idea at first and had to be pestered for weeks before finally joining. About the time the band was formed, they all had relationship problems which provided the foundation for their debut album Herzeleid ("Heartache") in 1995.

Rammstein's second album, Sehnsucht ("Longing"), was released on 22 August 1997. The cover art was created by famous Austrian artist Gottfried Helnwein . It sold very well, and today it is the only album entirely in German to be certified Platinum by the RIAA in the United States. The next year Rammstein went on tour, with the live album Live aus Berlin ("Live from Berlin") being released in 1998.
