The new single Liebe ist für alle da, which has not been officially confirmed yet is dangerously spreading on internet. Pirates are active and stole the song before its release.
Also this site is now in a big danger. It is very hard to review all the comments and forum threads and to control the content.
Please be advised that all posts containing links to the song (youtube, rapidshare, torrents or other) will be deleted. Additionally if you post them, a legal action may be taken against you due to a copyright infringement.
Please note that every time you post a comment, your IP address is stored and can be later used to prove your guilt.
In case we don’t manage to control the site we will be forced to close it to avoid any legal problems. Please keep it clean and legal.
UPDATE: first assholes have already commented this post with a link to rapidshare. If necessary, we will hire the best lawyers and will send you to prison for many years.
I agree with the last two posts. if its SUCH A BIG deal, why were they so careless to allow it to be stolen. from what ive heard the management seems well up tight, its anoying. fans who lisened to it soo quickly will still buy the album. why doesnt the band update there site, thats the best way to get/keep people keen.
Yes, it’s terrible that the song has leaked in this way. But I’m not in the least bit surprised. Rammstein’s Managment is so damn tight liped about everything, other bands like to share alot with their fans, and look at emigrate, they released some songs for LEGAL download. I’m also not surprised this song has spread like swine flu because of that reason. I heard the song on you tube thinking it was another hillarious fake, DAMN imagine my surprise when i heard, well the drumming made me think, hmmmm could be real, then Till confirmed it. I will buy the album, but i wish there was a way I could give the money only to Rammstein and not their bullshit managment
It’s not that black and white, this is a huge grey area. Somebody in the inner circle of the band has fucked up bigtime by leaking this song to the internet. It’s kind of shortsighted to say that people who spread the song, have no intention of buying the album. I myself have everything by Rammstein in original state, and the new album will be no exception. To have the original cd has some advantages: you have the artwork, you can listen to it quite some time and not fear that your cd will wear out and most of all: you’re not operating illegally.
So be sensible people: if you got the song, don’t spread it. Legally you’re wrong once you UPLOAD the song to the internet. Strange enough, in The Netherlands it’s not illegal to download something, as long as it stays on YOUR computer. Once you upload something, you are operating outside the law and therefore you can be prosecuted. The band asks everyone to delete the stuff and not publish it on any website. I say: support them.
and beside..if we don’t pay for their music,what are they going to do…work in a McDonald?
Real fans would not download the leak, that’s truly disrespectful towards Rammstein, they have worked hard to create incredible beautiful music for us and we should return the favor by avoiding piracy and report anyone with links or content with this piracy. It’s so repulsive how some people can be and I am truly sorry for Rammstein and as a true fan I will wait till they officially release their album to listen to their new material.
very tempting to go and find it but ‘at the end of the day’ im not going to, i remember when reise reise came out whe i go the cd it was the best feeling ever. if i downloaded it and listened it to on my pc it would have been no where near as good. CANT WAIT TO BUY THE CD AND HEAR THE MUSIC FOR THE FIRST TIME!
that song is great ! I am already addicted to it.
will definetely buy that single ,and album of course.
now just wishing that they would come to Estonia in 2010 🙂
whoever steals rammstein’s new music…should be fed to tills meat clever 😀 and then should be burnt in a pot !
I think it’s meant to mean “thanks Internet(you’ve ruined our website)”
It’s also some sort of in joke following on from a previous thankyou thread that Jeremy posted in the other day where people were praising Jeremy’s contributions over the years. It’s a bit of a turnaround to go from being universally praised to having what ammounts to a concerted attack directed at your site.
I think it’s very stupid of you to put up that the new single spreads on the internet on the front page of this website!
Ppl will go “wow, must download!”. You could have just shutdown the forum temporarly because of “maintance” or sumthing, c’mon!
If you really don’t want this to be spread on the internet you shouldnt write that it’s out!
Imo…
I don’t think it’s a kind of protest or punishment for people leaking the song. Jeremy and most of the moderating team there have been doing this a long time and are well aware that the internet is full of antisocial idiots.
I think it’s more of a practical thing because Jeremy is unwilling to take the risk legal entanglements with management over the hosting of links to their copyright and because people were posting the links too rapidly for the volunteer moderating team to keep up. The mods and admins shouldn’t have to put up with that kind of crap: so they’re not.
Yeah I want to know what happened to Herzeleid.com too, but it has something to do with the spreading of the song. I guess Jeremy decided to shut down the site before someone posts illegal material through it or something like that. Or he shut it in a protest way. “Thanks, Internet”, I think he said that in an ironic way referring to the song leaking.
>Hey, does anyone know what happened to HERZELEID.COM?
The same thing that I guess will happen here if people don’t stop posting banned materials.
The law is irrelevant, Even the threat of legal action is more than fan site owners deserve to have to put up with. If people want to go fight a war with Pilgrim over what is or is not copyright violation then go buy your own hosting in your own name and do it there.
People can find torrent trackers on their own, people can find youtube vids on their own: keep the fan forums clean! Most of the people posting these banned links have never done anyhing for the fan community. Jeremy hosted the best fan site on the web for 11 years and people repay him with this kick in the guts. Can’t tell you how angry I am.
yeah it was kinda frustrating that someone put “liebe ist für alle da” to the internet, but there is also people who DON’T spread it, just wanted to listen it, like me. 😀
although i cannot find myself as committing a crime, i bet the single is coming soon out.
What if i’ve heard this song before it’s official release? What is a big deal about this? I will buy their album anyway… Maybe it’s better promotion for them to spread this song all over the internet?
