A Warm-Up for Cardiff

The Welsh are a lovely bunch. I've never checked out this lot. They're a tad out of my reach, but RAMMLIED sounds like a fun little warm-up for the Made in Germany tour.

Swedes Are So Supportive

Rammstein have announced that the Swedish band, Deathstars, will be supporting them on the Made in Germany tour. I don't know a damned thing about them, but they're from my country of birth and they're metal, which tends to be a good combination.

UK residents can go into the draw for tickets to the Made in Germany show of their choice here.

On a Lighter Note...

Cookie: Pussy, parodied, badly:



Well, not so badly done, musically. The lyrics could have been much more amusing with a little thought.

I guess it had to be done.

Mein Herz Brennt

I'm a bit irritated. Some smacktard posted all sorts of highly provocative crap in a website post entitled 'Rammstein Concerts: Better than killing Jews' and now the damned thing won't go away. His blog post was apparently meant to be about a Rammstein show, but then became all about shooting Joe Lieberman (many times). It sounds as though it was the usual toxic, hate-driven, rectal leakage we see from white supremacists whenever they get onto their bandwagon. It's drivel, not worthy of our attention, but because this sad little twerp mentioned that he thinks Lieberman should be shot it has become a ubiquitous story, indelibly associated with Rammstein, a left-wing band, made up of middle-aged Germans who grew up behind the iron curtain. Really? Why?

Heartburn. That's what the racists are giving me. And it's not the good Rammsteinish variety either.
