Feuerschwanz: TodsĂŒnden

For the love of all that is holy, Feuerschwanz’s latest album TodsĂŒnden contains 16 covers that I didn’t know I needed in my life. Feuerschwanz treats their fans to covers of ABBA, Bloodhound Gang, Ed Sheeran, Ghost, Rammstein, The Weekend, Europe, Sabaton, Manowar and so so many more. Can a German metal folk band really pull this off? You bet your sweet bippy they can … Continue reading Feuerschwanz: TodsĂŒnden

Watch: Angst by Rammstein

What I interpret … Continue reading Watch: Angst by Rammstein

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! #1 song for Halloween goes to one of my favorite bands: RAMMSTEIN. I remember watching this video and thinking what in the hell?!? Background on the “Mein Teil” is that it was inspired by the case of Armin Meiwes, who was convicted for killing and eating a voluntary victim. Even knowing the background, made the video even more disturbing. Christoph is dressed as a … Continue reading #1: “Mein Teil”

Track of the Day: “Eat You Alive” by Emigrate

Words cannot describe how excited I am to have this song/video in my life. Actually, to be honest, I am just happy to have new EMIGRATE in my life. For those unfamiliar with EMIGRATE, the band is RICHARD KRUSPE of RAMMSTEIN‘s band. Not a solo project but another band. His words, not mine. Those who aren’t familiar with RAMMSTEIN may think EMIGRATE is similar in … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Eat You Alive” by Emigrate
