Rammstein singer quits

2007-07-16 by Damrod EMERITUS | 38 Comments
It will be hard for Rammstein. In a way, Till Lindemann was the face of the band. Lindemann will leave the band after the next studio output of the band is finished. Currently, the production process for the album is in it's final stages. According to a press release by band manager Emanuel Fialik, Lindemann is looking for new challanges - be it a solo carreer or a new band project. Reason for the "thought through decision" is named in the growing tensions within the band. Though many would doubt that Lindemann could be replaced, the band wants to go on with a new singer.

In a statement (on access via Blabberouth.net), Richard Krupse and Christoph Schneider explained that a new singer would have to be charismatic, but on his own way as they do not want a Lindemann-carbon-copy. The decision fell on En Esch, founder of Electro/Industrial-group KMFDM.

Of what kind the tensions were that lead to this departure is not revealed. The band states that he will be missed though, and closes it's statement with: "Please welcome the talented En Esch — Till's footsteps are big, but maybe he can dry our tears rapidly."

For some reason, I thought and said aloud "Yes..." when I saw the title.
I didn't care for his voice.

i swear not too long ago i thought about them breaking up, although they said on their Live aus Berlin DVD, when one quits - the band is over. doesn't seem to be the case here. at the same time i thought it would be a shame if they didn't release their final/sixth album, because they're six members in the band ;P. so it's not all that sad. but they're never gonna find a worthy replacement.This Message Edited On 07.16.07

They gave me a chuckle. Nothing more nothing less. But the singer did have a fucking demonic voice. Sad to hear.

Rammstein management haven't released a press release or anything, so pretty much everything has been founded on rumor.

I told my roommate who is a big Rammstein fan about this and he was in silent disbelief before I realized this was 4 years old and told him everything was ok.
