Now we're going really retro today 😊 with the 90's 'boy band photoshoot' 😊

I honestly never knew where that came from:

- is it a lazy typo by that magazine

- were they bored and having a bit of fun on the side coming up with fake facts about themselves (as they did more often imo)

- or was the mag confusing the name with that of at the time pretty famous German discusthrower Lars Riedel (olympic champion if i'm not mistaken)

😊

New allegations of abuse, this time against Flake. These articles spread like wildfire throughout german media this morning (17.07.23). Haven't found an article in English yet, so you might want to use the translation feature.

I'm just... I don't know anymore.

[marimayscarlett]

I'm sorry to be so blunt, but my staring-into-space moment is just 'Summer of 2023'. Horrible time for the band, horrible time as a fan, especially here in Germany. Never again, no thank you.

ok, i'm really curious: what would y'all consider to be the rammstein fandoms 'g note'

like the one thing that makes our ears perk up and we go insane or just stare into space like "oh god..."

i have two:

any screenshot from till the end (obviously sfw but the ones where you clearly know where they're from)

hearing any song that's vaguely 'rammstein shaped' as i like to call it (cha cha cha by käärijä and rim tim tagi dim by baby lasagna come to mind)

i'd love to hear more thoughts on this 😭

[notsosilenthowl]

As a start for this small blog I'd like to share a few pictures I've just made, because I'd like to show you what the naTo, the location of Rammstein's first show, looks like today and that it isn't just a club or small event location.

Whenever I pass this building and really look at it, it strikes me again how small it is. Like: Really SMOL. Imagine how much stage equipment the band could fit in there until the place would be bulging at the seams.^^

As it is sitting there rather inconspicuous at one end of a triangular square (oh English language ... this is an unfortunate ambiguity of the word square ...), this building has witnessed history. Not only Rammstein's first gig. In the GDR in this very building the alternative youth culture has met, but it has also been the official residence of the Stasi bureau for this specific part of the city. For those unfamiliar with this part of history: The combination is more than a little spicy, to say the least.

Today, and also back in 1994, it has been and is a free sociocultural venue. Independent and open-minded. A very nice vibe. You feel welcome instantly.

The words "Freedom of thought", "Safety", "Participation" and "dignity" are written on the wall. Below there are plaques with the human rights printed on them. Next to it there are graffiti complementing the different articles.

"We love democracy" it says on the banner. Below words like "theater", "to interfere", "to experiment", "self made" and many more tell you what this house stands for. It's so fitting that Rammstein's live shows started here.

Concerts, theater, movies, documentaries, exhibitions (a lot about the punk and left culture and history), a cozy bar. This place is so damn wonderful. :3

MW2 Task Force 141+König Hyperrealistic HC’s ✰

Ghost

-Not as reserved as you think he’d be, he’s actually very talkative. Him and Soap’s comm dialogue is more then enough evidence to show that he enjoys a good conversation and even jokes.

-Does that soldier sleep position often x . He’s a light sleeper, always ready to defend. When comfortable you can find him mumbling in his sleep, usually soft “yes”’s and “no”’s.

-Doesn’t fully understand American culture, he’s very confused by common American delicacies. “Y/N, what the fuck is a bucee’s?” He’d ask with a stressed look.

-Avid user of the word “cunt”. Top three favorite words. Also loves saying, “cheers ya slag”, he thinks and waits for scenarios so he can use it.

Gaz

-Very passionate about the military and his career. Gaz as a child would attend parades only to see the soldiers and wait at the end of the parade to meet them, his room was also filled with military toys and articles.

-His main song he listens to is Red Nation by The Game and Lil Wayne, it’s one of the few songs he downloaded on a portable music player.

-Is always around Price no matter where. You can always find him in Price’s office just chatting away and discussing documents. The two are bonded and Gaz is grateful to have an “older” and experienced father figure.

-Enjoys quiet days at the base. He likes just being able to hang out and be around his friends and team, he’d go to great lengths for his fellow soldiers.

Soap

-Soap’s accent can be super thick at times, causing the team to not understand him at times. He doesn’t attempt to correct himself most times, just continuing to ramble and goes on with the conversation.

-Is terrified of Ronald Mcdonald. “He be too happy, y’know?” He’d claim and frown. BIG fan of Grimace and the Hamburgler though, often always commenting on his love for them when the team mentions fast food.

-Secret artist. Soap’s mystery talent is he’s very gifted in drawing, he keeps his sketch pads under his mattress. He’d never show anyone but he is engrossed in sketching the team. There’s pages full of Ghost, Price, and Gaz just doing common things like sitting in a meeting or having a conversation with another team member.

-Absolutely hates doing dishes. Whenever he’s on dish duty he always complains. “A'd ower die.” He’d say and convince Gaz to do it, with the agreement of him doing Gaz’s chores for a week.

Price

-Is always rambling to Gaz or Soap about old movies he loves and makes them watch it with him. It became a weekly occurrence to find Price with the team watching some old western or military film.

-Enjoys watching documentaries about ancient civilizations, his favorite is Mesopotamia and the Shang dynasty.

-Price is always making sure his team is feeling good, often spending an equal amount of alone time with each member to talk and company them. “How’re you feeling, son?” He’d ask with a gentle but firm hand on their shoulder.

-When Soap is rambling and his accent is completely drowning a coherent sentence Price just nods and hums to him. He never comments on it, even if he doesn’t fully understand what was said.

König

-Huge fan of Rammstein. His teenage room was covered in posters of them and other bands like Helloween. Even as a full grown man he is not afraid to admit his love for Till Lindemann.

-A firm believer of Krampus and is very passionate about the subject. “Mein Gott! Don’t you know Knecht Ruprecht will get you if you’re naughty?” He’d tease to his soldiers, always backing it up by saying he knew a kid who got whipped by him.

-Has catatonic tendencies, will frequently withdrawal and get irritable. He’ll stay in his room going rigid and stays stupor. At times no Kortac member will see him, always wandering around base to try to find him. Once he snaps out of it he’ll often not remember it. “Was meinst du?” He’d ask and furrow his eyebrows, talking about a past day mission as if it were yesterday.

-As a child he was always absorbed and immersed in his mother’s snow globe collection. Gripping onto the mantle he’d watch the faux snow twirl around in the liquid. Was always afraid that somehow the globes would miraculously all fall off the mantle and shatter onto the ground.

The Prince and The Fox (7)

[ modern! • Aemond x friend! • female ]

[ warnings: kissing, fluff, swearing ]

[ description: After the events of her childhood, despite her best efforts, her neighbor and the younger brother of her friend Helaena, Aemond, does not want to know her. This state lasts until a house party organized by his older brother, Aegon, during which an incident occurs that will change their relationship forever. Slow burn, angst, toxic ex-Alys, rough Aemond. This is several anon requests combined into one fic. ]

WARNING: The main plot between the characters takes place in high school. Yes, in high school. The belief that teenagers wait with an intimacy when they are in love in high school is ridiculous to me. Aemond and the character here are the same age. Don't ask me how old they are, in my country you are of the age of consent in your first year of high school and an adult in the last year of high school, so if it is more convenient for you, think about it that way and decide for yourself. In this story, I am not following the trail that they are magically friends right away, but how they become friends and what that even means. I'm writing this fic to give the perspective of young, lost people, not adult women who want to see exactly themselves in everything they read. If that's all you expect, this isn't the fic for you.

I don't want whining about this in my comments or asks. I will delete these and block you. You have been warned.

_____

From the day he called her there was a change in him that surprised her. He would come up to her at breaks of his own accord, stand and talk to her, telling her about his day, what he was reading and playing. After what he wrote to her, Alys never spoke to him again and he told her that he felt like a huge stone had fallen off his back.

They often wrote after school, complaining about homework or tests, no longer having the energy to study, tired and discouraged. They usually wrote for hours about nothing, sending each other memes or screenshots of articles they had just read, however, she enjoyed it very much and, most importantly, he enjoyed it too.

They always sat together on the bus listening alternately to his and her playlist. He let her lay her head on his shoulder, himself resting his cheek against her hair.

She knew she was in love with him, had known it for a long time, but she felt that everything was as it should be.

That they were coming closer together in slow, small steps.

He surprised her one day when they were standing at the bus stop. She already knew him enough to feel that he wanted to say something, but as usual he had trouble getting it out. He looked down at his trainers, his hands slipped into the pockets on the front of his black hoodie, his lips tightened.

After a moment, he grunted, not looking at her, she had a feeling his skin was rosier than usual, as if he was hot even though it was cool and unpleasant around them.

"I've been thinking a lot lately." He began, licking his lower lip as if he was carefully analysing the next sentence he wanted to say.

"I…em-well." He paused, as if he had lost the thought. She glanced at him with sympathy seeing how difficult this was for him.

"I figured if you wanted to, I don't know, hold my hand sometimes, or do some other dating shit, I wouldn't mind." He choked out quickly at last, embarrassed, his nostrils moving in an anxious breath, he wasn't looking at her.

She blinked, feeling herself blush, a hot sensation spread throughout her body, a pleasant tickle in her belly. She pressed her lips together, lowering her gaze, embarrassed.

Was he just telling her that he was ready to take things a step further?

That he wanted something more than friendship?

"Okay." She said softly, not knowing what else to add, as stunned by it all as he was, it seemed to her that she had never felt anything like it before in her life.

As usual they sat on the bus together, but this time she had the feeling that he had specially pressed himself tighter against her with his arm, his knee touching hers.

She was hot with emotion so she had to pull her jacket off, and as she returned to her previous position, she placed her hand gently on his.

He looked at her surprised and swallowed loudly, his cheek immediately pressed against her hair as she laid her head on his shoulder, his pleasant scent filling her lungs.

She felt him intertwine their fingers, his Adam's apple waved as he swallowed hard again, his thumb stroking her skin gently in a gesture of such immense tenderness that she felt emotional.

She didn't dare hold his hand as they walked down the shool corridor, she was afraid of malicious comments towards him from others, she knew he only dreamed of sitting in his shadow and never coming out of it.

However, he would sit next to her on the floor during breaks, listening to music with her on his headphones, he made her really like Rammstein, they often listened to her favourite song 'Du Hast'. He would sometimes send her great recordings of their concerts, which she watched with blazing eyes in bed in her bedroom.

What pleased Helaena most about their closeness was that she could spend time with both of them at the same time without fear of conflict.

They often played online games together on the PlayStation, something she hadn't done much before but had become addicted to because of them, also joining in remotely with them via her laptop when she couldn't see them.

She wrote him back quickly without a second thought, knowing that tomorrow was Saturday and she could sit up late with them.

She told her parents where she was going, grabbed a few things to change into thinking that if she stayed up late she would spend the night in Helaena's bed and ran across the street, knocking on their door.

She heard Vhagar's loud, excited barking and then someone's footsteps, Aemond opened it for her and invited her in.

"Hi!" She shouted loudly into the ether looking around for Helaena, she saw him give her a surprised glance, following her into the depths of their living room.

"No…we are alone. Helaena and Aegon have gone off somewhere, my parents are away until Monday." He said looking at her uncertainly, as if he felt he might have inadvertently deceived or confused her in some way.

She blinked, tightening her lips, feeling butterflies in her stomach.

They would be alone.

Like a couple.

"…if you don't want to, then..."

"− no, it's fine. What are we going to play?" She asked pulling her backpack off her back and placing it next to the couch.

They spread out comfortably on the large sofa next to each other with the pads in their hands, browsing through the various online games, unsure of what to play. They usually played as a group of three so they didn't want to continue through the levels Helaena was helping them with.

"How about this?" He asked lowly, opening a preview of a game in which the characters were warriors flying on dragons, fighting in sky battles against other players who were also online. The gameplay was for up to two players.

"Oh, yes, I've always wanted to play this!" She exclaimed excitedly, sliding slightly down in her seat, and he hummed under his breath, starting up the game, waiting for it to load.

They were able to choose their gender, outfits and equipment with great detail and also the appearance of their dragon, so it took them the first hour.

"A bow? Don't you prefer a crossbow?" He asked with some kind of disappointment looking at her choice.

"I want a bow." She burbled undaunted, moving on to her heroine's hair colour and what kind of hairstyle she wanted.

They decided they'd start with training to learn how to control their big sky beasts at all, and it turned out not to be easy to pilot them so that they flew where they wanted, didn't hit each other, and at the same time shoot at their opponent.

"Shit. This is a game for kids aged 12 and up. It shouldn't be that fucking hard." He muttered, clicking the buttons of his pad loudly, as soon as he shot his dragon flew off a bit to the side and the arrow didn't reach his opponent. She sighed loudly at his words.

"We are poor players. I don't know if there is any point in humiliating ourselves by fighting experienced twelve-year-olds who will destroy us after a few seconds." She said amused to watch them both get tired, she heard him chuckle lowly and felt her cheeks blush.

"Yeah. We can check out the exploring cities mode. There are whole maps here. Then the gameplay is about flying to specific points and completing missions." He murmured, quickly clicking something on his pad, switching them from training mode to travel mode.

"Oh, great! I love it!" She said happily, pleased with how nice and detailed the graphics were, their dragons flying side by side and circling over a large, golden city reminiscent of some medieval kingdom.

They played like this for a while, commenting only briefly on what they were doing and the dialogue between the other characters, occasionally getting into fights with someone, but without the control of the dragons it was much easier and they both got caught up in the story. She was surprised and blinked when she suddenly saw him press pause.

She glanced at him questioningly, thinking he had to go to the bathroom or wanted to get himself something to drink, but he just looked at her and slid a little lower on the couch so that their faces were at a similar height.

She could feel the heat in her lower abdomen and her heart beating fast, she felt her cheeks burning, she couldn't hold back a slight embarrassed smile. He hummed under his breath, the corner of his mouth curving upwards involuntarily.

"Wanna kiss?" He asked, and she felt a wave of heat surge through her body, she clenched her thighs together, feeling a pleasant pulsing and tickling between them, she felt like her lungs were filled to the brim.

She nodded her head.

He smiled and reached his hand up to her cheek, his warm, soft, wet lips clinging to hers in a sticky, loud, tender kiss. He pulled away from her for a moment to look at her, and then they embraced and kissed again and again, her hand slipping into his hair, soft and smelling pleasantly of masculine shower gel, she thought with her heart beating hard that he had taken a bath before she came.

She heard him murmur as she felt him reciprocate his kisses, once in a while sucking his lower lip between hers, his hand tightened on the nape of her neck and hugged her tighter, their warm bodies touching.

His hands roamed her cheeks, her hair, her neck and her back and although she felt desire in that touch, it didn't make her uncomfortable, it wasn't intrusive.

She didn't want him to stop.

She felt something begin to happen to her as they both began to breathe loudly, their kisses faster, deeper, more intimate, more greedy, accompanied by the embarrassingly loud sound of their saliva, their fingers pressed painfully tight on their bodies.

"− so pretty −" He breathed out into her mouth and she trembled all over hearing it, feeling as if a pleasant wave of heat had passed through her body, the inside of her core between her thighs pulsed hard, for some reason she felt that she was terribly wet.

"− mhm −" She mumbled only, deepening the kiss thinking only of making sure he didn't stop, that she wanted this, that she wanted him.

That she wanted him to touch her.

He paused for a moment, panting loudly, his nose pressed against her cheek as he felt her take the arm he was embracing her with in her hand and slide it lower, grabbing his wrist.

"− did I do something wrong? −" He whispered in a trembling voice and drew in the air loudly, surprised when she took his hand in hers and gently placed it on her breast covered only by the material of her Tshirt.

"− fuck −" He muttered in shock, involuntarily his fingers tightened tentatively on her soft flesh, she could feel his accelerated breath on her face, that he was looking at what he was doing, where his hand was. "− so soft −"

She felt his words between her thighs, sighing quietly, unable to believe how pleasant it was, how warm and large his hand felt, his touch gentle, full of curiosity, respect and uncertainty.

He kissed her again, still keeping his hand on her breast, kneading it gently, sighing in delight as she struggled to catch her breath, moaning quietly when she felt the tip of his tongue gently brush her upper lip.

"− fuck − mmm −" He hummed quietly, thrusting greedily into her lips, panting loudly along with her, her hand pressed his fingers firmly against her breast forcing him to squeeze her harder and he groaned low right down her throat, her free hand roaming through his hair, his tongue invading deep inside her mouth.

They pulled away from each other, terrified and moved back quickly hearing the sound of a lock being turned and someone's laughter, Aegon talking loudly on the phone.

"She pisses me off, she's always jealous, I don't even get a moment's peace. No, I'm not going back there, I'm already home. Hi little nerds!" He threw them a greeting as he ran up the stairs to the first floor in a few sure strides, and after a moment she heard the sound of his room door closing.

They both swallowed loudly, trying to calm their breathing. She pressed her lips together not believing what had happened, afraid to look at him, not knowing what she should do now. She felt a terrible tension and a throbbing that she didn't know much of what to do about, and she was ashamed to ask him about it, so she just grunted quietly, looking down at her hands.

"Em….so. Shall we keep playing?" He asked in a low, slightly hoarse voice, and she nodded quickly.

They played for a few more hours without saying much, but they sat closer together, their thighs and shoulders touching, she could feel his body with her every move.

Neither of them pulled away, quite the contrary, sometimes when she was waiting for him to move she would lay her head on his shoulder, as she often did on the bus, watching him play and hearing him swallow loudly each time, trying to concentrate on what he was doing.

At some point she felt herself start to fall asleep, it was late but she didn't want to go home. It felt silly to be left without Helaena for the night though and she was afraid that Aegon would tease both him and her later.

That's why she simply laid back in with her face pressed into his neck inhaling his pleasant scent and allowed herself to close her eyes, just for a moment.

"− hey − Foxy − are you asleep? −" She heard him whisper, his warm hand gently stroking her thigh.

"− mmm −" She murmured softly, embracing his arm with her hands, cuddling into him like he was a teddy bear, he was pleasantly warm and smelled of himself, just the way she liked it, it felt good and comfortable. She felt him kiss her cheek a few times.

"Sleep. I'll cover you with a blanket later." He whispered, launching some other game on the pad, apparently a single-player one.

She felt him take his arm from her grasp only to embrace her and hug her close, and she snuggled eagerly into his chest, laying herself comfortably, his cheek resting against the top of her head, all she could hear was the quiet clicking of his pad and the sounds of the game which he had turned down so that she could sleep in peace.

After a while she fell into a deep sleep, squirming in his embrace. Then she felt a sudden emptiness and muttered under her breath discontentedly, searching for him with her hand in the darkness.

She felt someone's lips kissed her hair and stroked her cheek, she smelled his scent, his warm body laid behind her back and embraced her, covering them thoroughly with a warm blanket.

She placed her hands on his intertwining their fingers, his face snuggled into the hollow of her neck, she heard him sigh quietly as if relieved.

She fell asleep.

"The NDR confirmed to LTO that there are several ongoing court cases related to the podcast." Now this sounds interesting...

Well, well, well, if it isn't the consequences of your actions.

I hope they bleed these maggots dry, and I love that Till is suing them separately on personal grounds.

Why Farin Urlaub's support for Flake means so much to me

Had a short conversation with @marimayscarlett about that topic that made me realize something...so here you have a little personal post about my thoughts and feelings about that collab between Flake and Farin Urlaub (member of the german band Die Ärzte).

I loved die Ärzte from my childhood, my older brother introduced me to them. I started loving them and becoming an active fan around the age of...14 maybe (I'm now 36). Farin was always my favourite member. I was a die-hard fan for many, many years, went to several concerts, watched every bit of them on television, listened to their interviews, read everything I found about them. Especially about Farin. For me, he's one of the most intelligent people I "know". I love his views on things, value his opinions, admire his openess, his modesty, his creativity, his very balanced opinions. He reads and travels a lot, and it definitely shows. I would love to meet him and just listen to his storys. I really, really admire him as a person. He had a huge impact on my life as a teen, he also formed my inner moral compass. He's for example the reason why I never got into drinking alcohol (took a sip here and there, but gladly never started). My fan-fire for Die Ärzte has cooled down and made room for Rammstein, but I still am a huge fan of the man himself.

When that Row-Zero shit started last year, needless to say, I was devastated. My fan bubble was about to burst, I had a huuuuge moral conflict, as I'm sure most of us had. Was it still OK to like this band? To visit their concerts? To listen to their music? To write fanfiction about them? After many (!!!) conversations, read articles, listened podcasts and more conversations I decided that, YES, I can still enjoy this band without betraying myself and my moral compass. Till Lindemann doesn't equal Rammstein. The whole band surely has some sort of responsibility for what happened. But for me this was/is not a reason to turn my back on them. I heard (via youtube-videos from concerts) that Die Ärzte made some comments on that topic during their shows in 2023, they made some (bad) jokes about it. All in all, it was such a hard time with many hard discussions and difficult feelings.

I had to heal after this.

Now seeing Farin Urlaub, probably my most beloved celebrity, hero of my teenage-years and sculptor of my moral compass making a song and a video together with Flake, member of the ostracized band Rammstein....this really, really feels incredible. It's like an official OK, that my decision to stick with this band and to still love them is okay.

Seeing that Farin Urlaub obviously can differentiate between all the accusations, the accused persons, the band, the media...that he formed his own opinion and decided that it's okay to collab with him...this feels like healing to me. As I said, I have a very high opinion on Farin Urlaub. So seeing this sign from him makes me sooo incredibly happy and relieved. Obviously there's a shitstorm going on in the guestbook on Farin Urlaub's webpage - many people are disappointed by him.

I myself am very, very grateful and happy.

Danke Farin <3

[plunderherz]

I have to say that this Vulture article about Neil Gaiman really shook me to the core. Not because I was ever a big Gaiman fan, but because I loved Amanda Palmer, whose silence is currently making me all angrier. She's always talking! All the time! Now, when she should be talking, she's silent. And that drives me crazy.

We need to talk about the victims. About art. And idealisation.

What I'm writing here might trigger some readers, so this warning first.

The year before last, when there was this debate about Rammstein, I received a huge backlash for my statement on FB from many - mainly male - fellow musicians, promoters and DJs, which eventually ended up being much less about Rammstein and much more about women in general daring to talk about metoo in the entertainment industry. The debate was still very fresh at the time and I dared to say that something had to change. And that really shocked me. There were people I knew; not trolls, not anonymous people hiding behind avatars; who I actually valued and who I was sure weren't too stupid to peel a banana.

The comments ranged from ‘There have always been groupies’, to ‘Who knows what the back story is’, ‘He doesn't need it’ and ‘They all just want their 15 minutes of fame’. Was that because that's how it's learnt? Accepted? Because as men, they've never had to go through such experiences?

And then I inevitably wondered why the artist who is being criticised is the one who is constantly being talked about. Fans wondering what's going to happen to their fandom, work and author and stuff, colleagues defending colleagues, amateur psychologists snooping around the internet and thinking they've found something fishy in the ‘evil whistleblower's’ CV. You have to keep the legend alive. Somehow. Instead of talking about wrongdoing.

Why is there no talk about these girls who obviously experienced something that made them speak out at some point? And it doesn't matter what the back story is: No means no means no. Even if it was wanted before and then it wasn't: no still means no. And honestly: nobody wants 15 minutes of fame with a story like the one I had to read in detail today. Really nobody. BDSM, kinks, back and forth, if everything is consensual, everyone should do what they like - but: No means no.

And then we're sitting here, it's 2025, after Harry Weinstein and all these other horrible things and we still have to talk about filth like this. Now about someone who had such a nice feminist image like Neil Gaiman.

Talk about these girls, dammit. Listen to them! How many women have a story to tell and are afraid to talk? How many women and girls (and all other genders too!) have experienced a history of abuse or other sexual violence and live in shame and fear every day and have to stay silent! Be fucking loud! Get help! You are not alone! And dear fans of all art forms: What you love is the work of an artist. Not the artist himself. And no matter how great he or she may seem, no matter what clever things he/she says in interviews (if you only knew how much of it is clearly agreed….); the person behind it is not your friend. You don't know him or her.

Most of the ‘groupies’ I've met backstage in my life have been the opposite of what I imagine them to be. Not sex-crazed sassy bitches who do it for fun. Instead, they were very lovable, very emotional and sometimes naively romantic girls who later slipped into something that they later bitterly regretted. And who, unfortunately, didn't let themselves be talked out of it beforehand.

And I'll say it again: something has to change. Talk to your sons. And your daughters. And help them so that they never find themselves in such a situation of power.

If not Rammstein, Schneider would be perfect - and versatile male model. I can totally see him both in pal zileri and rick owens, remember that beginning in angst mv when he stands with his arms high - what a sophisticated vibe!

(another really old ask 😊)

Schneider could totally be a fashion model (so could Olli imo, but that wasn't the ask 😊)

He's a natural at it, just look at these early Rammstein photoshoots

not much into fashion myself, i didn't know the designers anon mentioned, so with the reference of the Angst video

i looked up Pal Zileri's work, and i can see this working for him

although i think we can safely say Schneider would prefer to wear something different when posing in water 😇

by the way...this photo from an article about Pal Zileri, gives me 'Angst' vibes in a different way 😊

and look how handsome he looked when he went shopping for designer-wear at Herr von Eden

he's made to model 🌺

that is...

unless anon meant this with the Angst reference, in which case i should have answered in a whole other direction 😄

Got Rammstein delivered to my doorstep this week - well, kind of 😊 The lovely @thegothicviking was so kind and sent me two issues of the Metal Hammer May 2021 'Rammstein Mutter: 20 years on' edition for my mother and myself 🤍

With the wonderful and iconic pictures from the Mutter era, a quite interesting article about the album and the tour, and several interesting picture descriptions and quotes:

Thank you again, dear, another item for my collection 🤍

Hey. Not to be intrusive or tell you who to like or not or write about, that's entirely your business. But I'm not sure if non German fans are aware of this. There are several credible allegations against Till Lindemann, for sexual coercion, sexual harassment, sexual acts with severely inebriated fans and underaged fans. It's been kept rather hush-hush outside of the German scene and even inside the scene a lot of "well it's just he-said-she-said" was used to shut down people talking about it. So I was wondering if you knew. Just since it seems in rather bad taste to write non/dubcon rpf about an (alleged) predator.

Hey! It’s actually incredibly well known for any fan that knows of Rammstein and chooses to do research. There’s plenty of articles, notes, and what have you. What I’ve heard last is that the case/ assault allegations have been dropped due to lack of evidence and “vague allegations”. And the articles posted about this were from 2023 if I remember correctly.

Whether it’s true or not that he has done those things, I don’t really know. And in the end, It’s not my job to defend him, nor do I really choose to get involved in it. I love the music of plenty of problematic people. I can’t choose what they do, I can’t force them to be “better”, but I can enjoy their music if I so choose and write whatever I’d like!

I also want to note that if you look at my masterlist, there are notably no fics written about Till. He is certainly not my first choice to write about (which is probably pretty apparent with how much Schneider is on that masterlist lmao). Till’s a great musician and incredibly talented, but I just don’t align with his personality, and that makes it difficult for me to write about him. I’ve had a few requests, and maybe someday when I feel more comfortable doing so, I’ll write about him. I still enjoy hearing all the headcanons and requests so this certainly isn’t me saying I don’t want anything to do with it! I mean shoot, maybe this will kick me in the ass to start writing solo fics about him!

But I will include him in my Ich Will fic because of course, he’s apart of the band and important to the story. But in saying that, there will be no drugging, raping, dub/noncon in this fic regarding him. But you do have to keep in mind, all of this is fictional before anything else. Just because I capture their personalities at least a little bit well, doesn’t mean I’m writing exactly about them as people. It’s an AU!

I hope this doesn’t come across as rude as it’s all purely informative and my own opinion. I appreciate you sending this message since it was obviously sent to inform. But being a fan of both Rammstein and Till’s solo project, I’ve heard the rumors and I’m abreast of them even if I choose not to respond all the time.

In the meantime, I hope you can enjoy my other fics and send in a request if you have something you’d like me to write!

Much love! <3

Flake will play guest role in crime series “Tatort”

As HR confirmed upon request, not only songwriter Heinz-Rudolf Kunze and Christiane Rösinger (Lassie Singers) will be seen in guest roles, but also a third very well-known musician. Christian "Flake" Lorenz from the band Rammstein plays a doctor.

Of course they had to bring accusations in the article

The keyboard player of the German metal band, like frontman Till Lindemann, was recently in the media connection with the scandal surrounding the so-called "Row Zero". This is not an obstacle to his involvement in "Tatort", as an HR spokesperson confirmed when asked by teleschau: "The accusations against him made in the media were not brought to court. We are presumed innocent."
