| Without a doubt, the highest profile German group out there today, Rammstein has completely outdone themselves with this latest album. With strong singles like "Links 2, 3, 4" and "Sonne" leading the way, the group churns out a heavytour de force that will please even the most devout metalheads.

While some of the tracks come off as very very blur (not that there is anything wrong witht his at all), others break new groud and have a new "Gorillaz" vibe about them. |
| The first single "Clint Eastwood" has been big in Europe for sometime, and has even recently been getting some airplay on MTV2 in the US. All in all a good first album from a group whose members exist only in 2D. |
