Rammstein

Rammstein is a German band formed in 1993. Their musical style, which they have dubbed Tanz-Metal, or "Dance Metal", incorporates elements of metal, industrial and electronic music. Their songs are performed almost exclusively in German.

Covers and adaptations

Rammstein's songs have been covered by a number of other artists, notably the Pet Shop Boys (who remixed the song Mein Teil) and Nina Hagen with Apocalyptica who covered Rammstein's Seemann. More unusually, the German composer Torsten Rasch has produced a classical opera cycle entitled Mein Herz Brennt, based on the album Mutter. The song Alter Mann was also done for the CD.

They've also done several covers themselves including Das Modell by Kraftwerk, Stripped by Depeche Mode and Pet Cemetery by The Ramones, which was based loosely on the Stephen King novel of the same name, and sung by keyboarder Flake Lorenz.
