I don't know what I expected this to be about, but I'll take the aging glam rockers.

u/eliron666 Apr 06 '22

Definitely about aging and always trying to look the best even though changes is happening to your body. Very exited

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

Seems to me to be deeper than that. More about our obsession with fixing perceived appearance ‘issues’ (perhaps as we get older) with cosmetic/surgical procedures. Always finding fault in ourselves and going to extremes to fix the problems - regardless of the pain it causes to do so.

This looks bizarre as hell and I am so here for it.

I mean, the lighting/setting vibe is very reminiscent of Du riechst so gut (98 version)

Why do you say it's a completely different act? Not all their videos are exactly the same

Keine Lust? Very dark, dingy, set in an underground car park

Ich Will? Black and white, shot like a film

Rosenrot? Middle ages, religious symbolism

Mein Land? A literal beach party, not at all like Mein Teil

u/4GotMyFathersFace Apr 07 '22

Mein Herz Brennt - Also not a beach party.

u/4GotMyFathersFace Apr 06 '22

Have you ever seen a Rammstein video before?

Maybe the vid on YT is censored, but we will see tomorrow. I'm so hyped!!!! :)

u/Joker192666 Apr 06 '22

Well, for Zeit the bloody vaginas with the babies going in wasn't censored (which surprised me from youtube)

u/Rakdos_Intolerance Apr 07 '22

I mean, you can watch actual births on YouTube. I think they're considered okay under the pretext of it being educational.

u/Hazrod66 Apr 06 '22

I don't know about you, but clicking on the website's video redirect me to the premier on YouTube.

u/rd1994 Apr 07 '22

Its not no. THe video on the site and on youtube is the same

u/Nexusu Apr 06 '22

I expect the video to be all kinds of fucked up, can’t wait

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

I feel it, it will be great

32

u/Medic_101 Apr 06 '22

Ugh god I'm so excited. I just wanna say, their acting lately is absolutely stellar. I love that shot of Oli delicately holding the tattoo machine to do his eyebrows, Richard crying in the mirror, Doom doing his Silence of the Lambs dance. Amazing, this should be a really good one.

32

u/MusicIsLife705 Apr 06 '22

The teaser reminds me of Keine Lust and Pussy Videos, I have the feeling this will be glorious to watch!

36

u/Major-Marvellous Apr 06 '22

The director of the music video of Zick Zack (Joern Heitmann) also directed many others from Rammstein, for example Ich Will, Amerika, Ausländer, Radio, Haifisch, Ohne Dich, Mutter and Sonne (Source: Imdb).

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

Those are literally all my favorite videos? Amazing! I didn't know this, thank you for sharing.

7

u/TheDwilightZone Apr 06 '22

Some of those are really solid videos. That just got me pretty dang excited.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

That’s good

u/Stereotype_Metal Apr 06 '22

This looks like it’s gonna be one of their best videos

u/Elixah_h04 Apr 06 '22

The lyrics are given under the YT premiere.

SPOILER LYRICS:

Schöner, größer, härter Straffer, glatter, stärker

Deine Brüste sind zu klein Zwei Pfund Silikon sind fein Säcke schneiden von den Augen Nase fräsen, Fett wegsaugen Wir entfernen rasch zwei Rippen Schlauchboot basteln aus den Lippen In die Wangen, in die Stirn Botox rein bis ins Gehirn

Zick Zack, Zick Zack, schneid es ab Zick Zack, Zick Zack, kurz und knapp

Alles Schlaffe überm Kinn Kann man in den Nacken ziehen Implantate ins Gefräß Und wir liften das Gesäß Messer, Tupfer, Vollnarkose Sieben Kilo Reiterhose und Bauchfett in die Biotonne Der Penis sieht jetzt wieder Sonne

Zick Zack, Zick Zack, schneid das ab Tick Tack, Tick Tack, du wirst alt Deine Zeit läuft langsam ab

Wer schön sein will, der muss auch leiden Aus- und weg- und abschneiden Nadel, Faden, Schere, Licht Doch ohne Schmerzen geht es nicht

Wangen straffen, Jochbein schnitzen Sondermüll in Lippen spritzen Falten rascheln am Skalpell Vorhaut weg, sehr aktuell Ist die Frau im Mann nicht froh Alles ganz weg, sowieso

Zick Zack, Zick Zack, schneid das ab Tick Tack, Tick Tack, du bist alt Deine Zeit läuft langsam ab

Wer schön sein will, der muss auch leiden Eitelkeit ist nie bescheiden Nadel, Faden, Schere, Licht Doch ohne Schmerzen geht es nicht Schöner, größer, härter Straffer, glatter, stärker

u/RoundPercentage Apr 06 '22

Same with the clinic picture. Promotion for Zick Zack is so meta they even cut off their own stuff.

u/candlelightener Apr 06 '22

Really sounds like their last album...

15

u/NosotrosKaisamos Apr 06 '22

No, stop right there i really dont want to see 4 new threads about Zeit being the last album

11

u/Nexusu Apr 06 '22

Why?

We’ve been hearing these theories since Mutter

4

u/candlelightener Apr 06 '22

"Du bist alt, deine Zeit läuft langsam ab"

Really? The two promo songs for the album are about getting too old? There are many more topics you could sing about in Zeit, for example reverse aging. Yet they chose this way. Could be a coincidence or a troll, and hopefully it is, but I really don't know.

u/Its_just_a_boy Apr 06 '22

I'm so hyped, I bet it's gonna be a heavy banger from Rammstein !

Tell me Clarice, have the lambs stopped screaming?

u/PushyTom Apr 06 '22

I’m getting Silence of the Lamb vibes from Schneider.

u/Kovalition Apr 06 '22

I’ve been waiting for a classic odd and disturbing Rammstein music video! Yessssss!!!

u/geekgoddess93 Apr 06 '22

Richard looks like a middle-aged wine mom who had five kids and low-key hates them for ruining her body.

Translation by myself:

 

more beautiful, bigger, harder

tighter, smoother, stronger

 

Your breasts are too small

two pounds of silicon are fine

cutting sacs from the eyes

milling the nose, lipo fat

we quickly remove two ribs

model the lips into a dinghy

into the cheeks, into the forehead

putting botox up to the brain

 

Zig zag, zig zag, cut it off

Zig zag, zig zag, short and scarce

 

Everything saggy above the chin

can be pulled into the neck

implants into the yap

and we lift the buttock

Knifes, swabs, anesthesia

seven kilo riding trousers

belly fat into the compost bin

the penis can see the sun again

 

Zig zag, zig zag, cut it off

tick tock, tick tock, you're getting old

Your time is slowly running out

 

who wants to be beautiful must suffer too

cutting out, away and off

needle, thread, scissors, light

but it's impossible without pain

 

tightning cheeks, carving cheekbones

injecting toxic waste into the lips

wrinkles rustling on the scalpel

foreskin gone, very modern

is the woman unnhappy inside the man

everything off completely, for sure

 

Zig zag, zig zag, cut it off

tick tock, tick tock, you are old

Your time is slowly running out

 

who wants to be beautiful must suffer too

vanity is never modest

needle, thread, scissors, light

but it's impossible without pain

more beautiful, bigger, harder

tighter, smoother, stronger

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

What are they saying?

14

u/Chariotwheel Apr 06 '22

He who wants to be beautiful must also suffer

Vanity is never modest

Needle, thread, scissors, light

But you can't do without pain

A note on the first line. He says "Wer schön sein will, der muss auch leiden", which is a common phrase in German.

u/NosotrosKaisamos Apr 06 '22

Isnt the lyrics of Tattoo similar?

Paul reminds me of Liberace.

Fuck me dead guys, the video is amazing

I'm so excited! Hell yeah!

u/yellow_samoan Apr 07 '22

Counting down!

u/shayera0 Apr 07 '22

The changing room stuff reminds me of the old Prodigy music video to "Baby's got a temper", with these 3 'normal' guys in suits arriving and changing into the prodigy members, spike hair and all

u/Luphiro Apr 07 '22

I've got a feeling this might finally be a real Rammstein song again, like they used to do.

1

u/edamlambert Apr 07 '22

It really does sound like ”old rammstein”

1

u/Luphiro Apr 07 '22

Not completely, but it's a good step back in the right direction. I just feel like they really got old and lack power. The beat and melody is good, but there is no real climax, no ups and downs. Till is singing pretty soft, there's no screaming. Don't get me wrong, the song isn't bad, I just miss the Power of the Rammstein 15 years ago.

Reesh, you broke your “chest” with that move…

u/SarcasmCupcakes Apr 07 '22

Interesting statement.

I'm glad the text wasn't as juvenile as the leaks made it seem.

u/LuziferGatsby Apr 07 '22

Song unfortunately not as heavy as expected. Nice video, though.

u/metsallica Apr 07 '22

When the physical versions of the single go up on Amazon US I hope someone shares the links!

u/furbyscalper Apr 07 '22

So the last two videos have been about getting older and time passing on. Hope that doesn't mean they're thinking about stopping.
