Rammstein's second album, Sehnsucht, finds the German prog metal band making a great leap forward. While the group still sounds a little unfocused in places, their blend of industrial noise, grinding metal guitars, and operatic vocals is staggeringly powerful. No other European metal band sounds like Rammstein, nor does any American metal group -- this is powerful, gothic metal that is unlike anything else in late-'90s metal. Sehnsucht may be an acquired taste, but it's one worth acquiring. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
fujeeznchorteez hit the nail on the head. KMFDM is one of the great overlooked music-shapers in this genre of the last decade (or more). I'm glad someone else recognizes this.
Prog Rock Metal-- I wouldn't put Rammstein in any other category. I remember when everyone was listening to this while I was in Middle school, singing 'Buck dick' and other stupid things. The scary thing is-- those people grew up!
