Lindemann: Till's solo project

[Waidmann]

The belgian magazine Humo (most popular magazine of our country) was quite negative as well. They said they laughed a lot, but didn't think it was a very good record. Though it didn't seem as if they really payed much attention, like the ones from ultimate-guitare. In Humo they misquoted, talked about how homophobic the album sometimes sounded (I mean wth? When???) or how they thought the lyrics of Golden Shower, Cowboy and Home Sweet Home had a lot of flat humour (why on earth Home Sweet Home??? Where's the humour???).

I can always accept it when people dislike the music I like, but only if they give valid arguments (which explains 95% of my quarrels with Snake ). I mean, come on, why is this guy from Ultimate-guitare still so bothered with the offensive dimension of some songs? That sounds more like a comment from the early 80's, seriously. I can recommend some christian family caroll singers, if he prefers.
Also the fact that he sells his opinion as truth is unacceptable journalism to me. He says there's just nothing funny about the lyrics, period. Saying that is more cheap than the things he's actually criticizing as such. Many is made to laugh and has many people laughing. Also period.
Only the lack of language skills can indeed seem like a valuable point. The lyrics often seem somewhat simple and weirdly sung. I can understand it striks as a bit simple and annoying, but personnally I'm not at all bothered.

We want to show all opinions. it's not necessarily how we feel about the album

In shock over the review, not that you bring it. Of course you do that, but the reviewer seems to have missed the whole point entirely.

Lindemann USA has shared this review, I'm still in shock...

^I've heard about Madrid's insane summer heat. It's a city far above the ocean level and far away from the coast, so that can make the warm temperaturs so unbearable. I hope you will get through it fine

Usually during summer we have several weeks over 40ºC, one week(or two) and temperature decreases, later another. This is the fourth week with high temperatures, last weekend temperatures decreased 4 degrees, but since today thermometers are going up again, it seems to never end.

Time for another interview translated by Rammstein US, this time for Laut.de

I'll be in Brussels the entire day, teaching Spanish people some Dutch (@Maya: there's room for one more ).

I would love it but unfortunately, I 'll be working in Madrid, with this terrible heat... Temperatures are increasing again.

^I know you iive in Belgium, and if i go there it might be Brugge or Antwerp, not Brussels. (Isn't that mostly French-speaking).

Aha, Brugge is my hometown! If you're on the central square, just realize you're within 200m of my appartment . You'd probably even pass by it.
Indeed, Brussels is mostly French-speaking, and that's exactly why they need me as a Dutch teacher . The capital is offically bilingual, so as you should be able to speak both languages in administration nowadays, many adults are forced to learn Dutch as quickly as possible.

This has everything to do with Till's solo project .

Thanks, I'll be by tomorrow and brush up on my Dutch. So if you see an old Danish woman in a R+ t-shirt, carrying way too much camera-gear and speaking broken Dutch: It's me

Hehe, too bad, I live in Belgium, not the Netherlands. I'll be in Brussels the entire day, teaching Spanish people some Dutch (@Maya: there's room for one more ).

[Maya]

Thank you The Rose.

It would be amazing if you meet

[The Rose]

Thx @The Rose, it was a fun read after all . Helped me practise my Danish as well (I always struggle with that language, don't know why). Btw, in Dutch we say "ant-fucking" .

Thank you very much, can I share it on FB?

Of course, be my guest :-)

@Snake: thx for sharing the making of, though we didn't learn much from that I'm afraid . It's always Till bringing new aspects to every interview, and since he didn't say anything really, it was a bit same old, same old.
