New video by Rammstein

[Virvatuli]

Okay. I was rather curious about the new video, wondered what the boys of Rammstein would do next... I mean, they've done it all already so what's next? What's the next big (or small) shocker going to be? Well I never would've guessed, that's for sure.
Some of you know what an innocent mind I have, but this video sure was too much for me :D I still haven't decided what to think about it... I mean, what do you think? Totally tasteless or do they have a point somewhere there? And will anyone notice if they do? :D Oh gosh... i'm really getting way too old for this kinda shockers...
Those of you who have not seen the video, go to http://visit-x.net/rammstein/ ... if you dare

P.S. and what a lousy song too!

uh - at first I didn't recognize rammstein at all, hell what has become of this band... the video especially in connection with the really bad lyrics of this song is quite tasteless - and if the choose to do porn they should do it on a higher level. what I disliked most is a passage sayong "Blitzkrieg flesh gun" ??? but maybe I didn't get father beyond the message than I should go fucking round the world because my pussy is german.
I once thought rammstein do not need sex to sell - situation must be bad, if they are choosing this kind of presence.
will someone notice? depends on which album this kind of song shall be released - some teens beyond 15 will be fond of it for shure, because similar videos from the hip hop scene are really prefered under those kids now. In this situation I think as well I#m far too old for this stuff - and I'm not out of my teens that long. maybe they've been sitting on DSF and similar "call me now!" shows at TV for too long, that would be an explanation for this lousy product.

Well imo the video still screams parody, as does the song, so I wouldn't take it too seriously when it comes to the lyrics...  So if some 15 year old kid wants to take it literary, then be it so. And I don't think they're exactly using sex to sell music in the sense some rap artists do... They are just braking another tabu to shock people, and that's what they've done for a rather long time imo...
Perhaps their point is just to make people think about the reasons why this kinda stuff is so shocking... I mean, everyone knows porn exists, everyone knows that a lot of people watch it, and everyone's seen at least one of those gross hip hop music videos, where the music doesn't matter as much as the asses on the screen. So what's the problem? That they show it all? Hmh...
Well at least they've done it again, shocked everyone and gotten the publicity they want...

at most of their songs I got the Ironie, but here I seem to have totally missed it - maybe the problem is, that they stay too general in what they sing. the video for itself - well as I said, I wasn't disturbed by seeing just porn, but by seeing this dull, mediocre stuff (so here it s I should have found the ironie I think).
I'm not quite sure if I am understood correctly (hell reading english is far more easy than actually writing) but I'm not afraid some innocent 15 year old may be "spoiled" by this video - but I don't see me as the group the song is aiming at.
But I have to admit, wouldn't you have posted the video here I wouldn't have noticed it, because since the last two albums I am bored by their style.
