Interview: “Oomph!” guitarist Flux talks about the evolution of his band and the other goals. He also said something about Rammstein.
Question: People always say, you are the original and Rammstein the copy. What do you think about such statements?
Flux: In the music history is it so that we founded our group 20 years ago, and Rammstein just the mid-1990s. They were with us at the concerts and had their first demos we delivered. They call us nicely in interviews again and again as the influence and sources of inspiration. However, Rammstein then went their way and we ours further. Rammstein play with stereotypes, which we would never do. If we do these sterotypes, we could not see our face in the mirror next morning.
Question: What awaits the visitor at your concert tour?
Flux: Our show focuses primarily on us as personalities. If you have expected a fire show like Rammstein, you are wrong. We do not want such distracting elements in our music. Of course we will play many songs from the new album, but also many older stuff, so a colorful cross-section of our creation. It will be a big party, Dena goes into the audience to work with people.

hi. fuck oomph! rammstein is god
HAHA…Agreed!!! 😀
Ich werde warten, bis das neue Album, wollen nicht zu spät ist.
Rammstein is still way better and they will be even better when the new album comes out very soon!
I've always known they're not too keen on Rammstein. They prefer smaller live shows without distracting pyros. That's their way of performing their music. I'm a fan of OOMPH! and I let them have their own opinion. While Rammstein's been in coma I've been listening to OOMPH! a lot. They're great with their fans, too. I had chats with them online and they're great and hilarious guys.
I think Rammstein dont know who Oomph are.
I Reckon!!!!!!!!!!
they are the ones dat inpired me to play heavy metal guitar
FUCK THEM RAMMS+EIN RULEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
lol no poor guy just gay guuy
fuck oomph with those kind of comments u can see that they want to be like Rammstein but they just cant… rammstein imitation poor guy
And they use fire. i dont see any fire.. Rammstein is the orginal and Oompha is the copy. I dont think Rammstein imitate any band.. Rammstein have own ideas.
Yeah i dont understand the stereotype thing either
there nowhere near the “average” band
they really hate it that Rammstein are more famous then them 😀
such suckers. i have not heard a single oomph song that sounds like a rammstein song. not one.
what is he talking about “play with stereotypes”? there is nothing ordinary about R+…an unfortunate thing for him to say.
