The Virus Inside
It appears so. I'm not really a fan of the very minimalistic approach they have taken with this record's art and lack of title. But I guess at the end of the day, it's the music that really takes the main spotlight. As long as that's good, the rest shouldn't matter. So far I'm digging what I hear in the clips.
Just tickles my balls!
So much for Tallymann, haha.
The clean white artwork reminds me of the Made In Germany era.
...no deluxe edition with extra tracks?
Matador de Froot Loops
Yeah, the art it's similar to "Made in Germany".
It's not the first time they had "minimalistic" art "Reise, Reise" comes to mind...
Behold the morning star
I wonder what the special edition on the website will be.
House Always Wins
Wonder how hard vinyl presses will be to get of this when they hit pre-order.
The Virus Inside
It appears that is just a "gate fold" version with the photos and the booklet part of the cardboard fold out (think of made in Germany packaging). The normal seems to be a tradition jewel case with a pull out booklet.Originally Posted by Conan The Barbarian
Yeah, but even the Reise, Reise cover had a certain charm to it. This one just seems... really lazy.
@Erneuert -regarding the "bonus track's" - Yeah, what gives? They said they recorded 16 tracks in total. I was hoping for a deluxe edition with the extra tracks. We know for a 100% fact they there is a stupid version of Ramm4 that was recorded though, because it was played during the Europe stadium tour teaser video.

Maybe we’ll get proper b-sides on the upcoming singles for a change rather than remixes?
The Virus Inside
That's true, they said they were going to have 5 or so music videos. Was just surprised to not see a B-side on the Deutshland single. Ramm4 would have worked well on there.

I’m actually surprised they haven’t announced a butt plug flight case version akin to the 2009 dildo box, especially since there is a song called Sex on the album.
The Virus Inside
Give it time good sir, give it time. Once the "Sex" single comes out, expect a full blown sex toy box set lol.

One of my colleagues is out for rehearsals now, and it's the first time in a while that I've actually had gig envy.
Not that anyone would have thought otherwise, but you guys are in for a great show.

Preordered the vinyl. This all looks nice!
The Virus Inside
I've been a fan since 1997 and it's always been a dream of mine to see Rammstein in Europe, so I am pretty choked I couldn't make this stadium tour. I have no doubts that this show is going to be amazing in every aspect. They always tone their shows down a bit when they come to North America. So I'm with ya on this one. I have gig envy of anyone lucky enough to see one of the European stadium shows this summer.
Matador de Froot Loops
Yep, but after the highly-elaborated-so-produced "Deutschland" video, i don't mind....
The Virus Inside
So that's why they skimped out on the artwork! They blew their art budget on the video! Makes sense now.

Second I read "I pre-ordered the vinyl" on this thread I immediately did too.
It's surreal in my brain that it's an actual option to do after 10 fucking years.
Even when I hold this in my hand and even after I've heard the album 10 times it's still not going to register for a good while that it's even real.
Hell yeah.
Just tickles my balls!
So this will be the first R+ album proper not to have a title track.
...unless there is a hidden, untitled track at the end. heh heh
The Virus Inside
The scary thing is, that totally didn't feel like 10 years. 10 years on paper sounds like a fucking long time, but in reality, it goes by pretty goddamn fast. At least for me anyway. When I was younger the thought of waiting 5 years was excruciatingly long, let alone 10, but that really didn't feel like it was that long ago. Now that's a scary thought.

Ditto. When I thought about TDS being released in 1994 back in 2004 it felt like a century to me. Now it’s... well, it’s best summed up by the band:
Save each other from heartache
for the time that you are together is short
For even if you are united for many years
one day they will seem like minutes to you
Heartache
Save each other from togetherness

Going to see Rammstein at Milton Keynes Bowl in the UK in July and I hope to fuck the weather holds up. Last time I saw them was at Download Festival 2016 (I think) and it was nicknamed Drownload as it just pissed down all day (in fact I think it pissed down all weekend but we were only there the one day thank God), it was a really miserable experience, couldn’t dance due to shoes just sticking in the mud and nearly coming off
The Virus Inside
First of all, holy shit I didn't realize that was THE WHOLE SONG there.
I originally thought "that's a very nice part of the song he quoted there" until I looked it up to see what the rest of the lyrics were. Then my second thought was "This sounds WAY better sung in German. Sounds like crap reading the English"
I miss herzeleid.net That place was the bomb in the early 2000s. That used to be my mainstay until Jobarr basically got lazy and gave up on it.
I also used to rock those free @herzeleid.net e-mail's like nobody's business.
Ah, the good old days.

Yeah, the lyrics always seemed shorter to me in English.
I think the passing of time thing also feels a lot different now with the internet where you can easily go back to a particular virtual place in time on forums, etc, back to old archived 2002 ETS and such, whereas that didn’t exist in 1994. At least not to the extent that we have it available now. That time period feels like a relic.

Where did you order your copy from?
Just tickles my balls!
Does anyone else keep getting reminded of That’s My Heart by Lindemann when you look at the song title Diamant?
The Virus Inside
No, but my brain keeps seeing "Dammit"
