Music reviews of Mutter
Music Review: One of my top 5 favorite albums of all time.
Rating: 5 Stars
Rammstein is an amazing sextet from Germany that has managed to gain popularity here in the states, despite the fact that their vocals are almost always in German. On this, their best album, they combine industrial metal with classical and the formula works like a charm. However, the techno music used on this album is not like that used on earlier songs like Du Hast, Eifersucht, and Du Riechst So Gut. It fits into the song perfectly without standing out. Some songs are heavier than others and some contain more techno or more string arrangements and orchestra parts. Every song, however, is excellent, even though I don't understand German. I once searched the internet for translated lyrics, but I didn't like some of the lyrics for certain songs on Herzeleid and Sehnsucht, so I decided that I didn't want to know the lyrics for Mutter. Therefore, my review will focus on the music itself. The album begins with Mein Herz Brennt, a song that starts out slow with beautiful strings and then erupts into heaviness. This song also features acoustic guitar. The second song is Links 2-3-4, which opens with the sound of marching because it is a marching anthem (Links 2-3-4 means Left 2-3-4). It is a real headbanger. The third song is Sonne, which is my favorite song of all time by any artist. It is very heavy but also indescribably beautiful. I never get tired of listening to it. Next comes Ich Will, a mid-tempo song with eerie techno and angry vocals including the sound of a shouting crowd, followed by Feuer Frei. Feuer Frei (Open Fire) is a heavy song with unique techno mixed in, including the sound of gunfire. Unfortunately, it always reminds me of the dumb movie XXX. The sixth song, Mutter, is the first of two ballads on the album. It contains beautiful singing by Till Lindemann, who has one of the best singing voices I have ever heard. It also contains dramatic strings and has a somewhat sad vibe. Next comes Spieluhr, a moderately heavy song that features a child's voice during the chorus and the sound of a music box playing, followed by Zwitter, my least favorite song on the album. Rein Raus comes next, another headbanger that makes for a great live performance, followed by Adios. Even though Adios is a Spanish word, this song is still in German. It is both heavy and soft, and features a techno 'solo' if you will. The final track is the second ballad, Nebel, which brings an amazing album to an amazing close. Nebel has strings of course, and it also has one of the longest first verses of a song that I have ever heard. It is very dramatic, but still beautiful. This album overall is very unique and original, as well as diverse. It contains heavier songs like Links 2-3-4 and Feuer Frei, softer songs like Mutter and Nebel, and songs that are somewhere in between, such as Mein Herz Brennt and Sonne. Rammstein's album Mutter may be an acquired taste, but it's a taste well worth acquiring.
Description of Mutter
This German industrial-metal machine has proven itself to be quite popular, with their engaging, potent brand of electronic-enhanced guitar rock and outlandish stage shows appealing to everyone from young teens to fortysomethings. (Their last studio release, 1998's Sehnsucht, went gold in the U.S.) On their third studio album, Mutter, the sextet augments its propulsive sound with a live string section and a soprano on a few tracks, while offering two mellower tracks to show their soft side. Even if they're not breaking down major barriers with their latest release, the enigmatic Rammstein should still continue pleasing numerous musical insurgents across the globe. --Bryan ReesmanAlt Industrial CDs
