In May, Rammstein launched its first album after ten years. The German industrial metal band’s album has no title and includes eleven new songs.

Since late March 2019 , the single “ Deutschland ” (Germany) had been released and only in a week, its video already had 25 million views on Youtube , as informed the German edition of magazine Rolling Stone .

As usual, the video has caused controversy because the members of the band wear attires similar to those used by prisoners in concentration camps while the Afro-German actress Ruby Commey portrays “Germania.”

In this regard, Felix Klein , commissioner of the German government for anti-Semitism affairs declared that “the staging of Rammstein musicians as prisoners in concentration camps sentenced to death exceeded a red line.”

The album has different musical undertones although the band keeps loyal to its formula: “an amazing horror spectacle,” as says the web edition of German magazine Spiegel .

Among the most used rhetorical stylistic resources is the oxymoron , that is, the use of contradictory concepts, as happens in the song “ Tattoo ” where the use of German proverbs uses this device.

In the song “ Ausländer ” (Foreigners), the sextet portrays nationality stereotypes and a cosmopolitan vision while in “Zeig dich” (Show yourself) they address the accusations of sexual abuse against the Catholic Church .

In addition, the song called “ Halloman ” (The Hello Man) also addresses the topic of abuse of minors, while “ Weit weg ” (Away) talks about voyeurism, and “ Puppe ” (Doll) talks about prostitution.

Rammstein’s tour, known for its firework shows , has planned to visit Norway, Spain, Russia, Denmark, France, and the Czech Republic, among other countries.
