Ok I thought I’d let people in on the origin of my username “Rammstein21″
Rammstein being my favourite band EVER! Their live shows are phenomenal, I first heard of them in 2002 when i was 12 seeing the movie Triple X, they appear in the beggining onstage performing their song “Feuer Frei!” translating to “Fire at Will”… They are German, they sing all in German, except one or two b-sides that have been in English and one song on the last album “Te Quiero Puta!” which is entirely in Spanish…
They are a 6 piece band consisting of Till Lindemann (Lead vocals), Richard Kruspe (lead guitar / backing vocals), Paul Landers (rhythm guitar / backing vocals), Christoph Schneider (drums), Christian ‘Flake’ Lorenz (keyboards), Oliver Riedel (bass / backing vocals) …
they formed in 1993 and released their first album in September of 1995 “Herzeleid” translating to “Heartache”, the album was highly successful throughout Europe but their “breakthrough album” titled “Sehnsucht” released in 1997 got them known all across the USA and they soon became the most successful non-english speaking band of all time… They have released a total of 5 studio albums and 2 live albums throughout their career “Herzeleid -1995″ “Sehnsucht -1997″ “Mutter -2001″ “Reise, Reise -2004″ “Rosenrot -2005″
Their live shows are known as some of the most intense around, everytime they have been nominated for Best live act they clean up the award… one of their main instruments onstage is Fire using “Flamethrowers, Fire pots, flaming microphone stands, Till singing whole songs engulfed in flames, flame shooting masks etc…
They were once very well known for their stage act during the song “Bück Dich” where Till would have a dildo attached to the inside of his pants that sprayed water and milk all over the audience and other band members, many people took this very seriously while others found it hilarious…
My favourite line from any of their songs comes from their song “Feuer und Wasser”
Feuer und Wasser kommt nicht zusammen
Kann man nicht binden sind nicht verwandt
In Funken versunken steh ich in Flammen
und bin im Wasser verbrannt
Im Wasser verbrannt
Which translates to:
Fire and water don’t come together
Can’t be bound, aren’t related
Sunken in sparks, I am aflame
and am burned in the water
Burned in the water
And the origin of the 21 in the name is about my first ever crush’s birthday was on 21/11/89 and my birthday is the 2/1/90
Simple 2 and 1 together 
My favourite numbers are 21 and 11 – 11 because my GF’s bday is the 11/05/90…
Simple 
I’ll post a few videos of Rammstein if anyone wants to check them out:
This one is from their 2005 concert in a small club in London: performing Feuer Frei! with Fire masks at the end:
And here is another video of the 2005 France concert of Rammstein performing “Morgenstern” -the best bit is at tim-3:10, 4 mortar hits go off on the stage and the whole arena glows red, it’s bloody AWESOME!!!
This is their music video Mein Teil: the song was written about a cannibal in Germany who found a willing victim over the internet who wanted to be eaten, they met had sex then the victim cut off his penis, cooked it and they ate it together before the victim bled to death… (dont worry the video isn’t like that lol)
