Reviews 
Lyrics Reise, Reise translates literally from German to "Journey, Journey" or "Travel, Travel" and
The album name comes from an old sailor's expression to waken other sailors: "Reise, Reise aufstehen! Kommt hoch nach alter Seemannsart". Hence, the translation of the title would be "Arise, Arise".

Reise Reise... yeah I really was terribly unimpressed the first time I heard this release. I wasn't much of a Rammstein fan anyway, liking some of their heaviest songs but further thinking of them as a boring and average industrial metal band. Now I think differently. After a comment by a friend of mine made me listen to Rammstein's lyrics more closely I was greatly impressed. Yes, in my opinion lyrics are the main thing that Rammstein gives us. Be it the social-critical Amerika or the cannibalistic Mein Teil or Dalai Lama, a modern remake of Goethe's world famous "erlkönig" (erlking) in which the father squeezes his son to death out of fear for his child's life, or Morgenstern which shows a lot of similarities to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. The lyrics are simply brilliant. Like on all other albums the songs are filled with brilliant metaphors and every single song can be listened to with two or three different meanings. Like always the lyrics are about modern decadence, violence and sex. Listening to the lyrics will unfortunately be very difficult for non-native German speakers though. Because a lot of the lines are parables and idioms. For anyone who speaks very good German I greatly recommend Rammstein for the lyrics alone though. Read more ›› |

With nervousness and anxiety, I went out from the disc store to my house as fast as possible, almost running across a sea of people by the pedestrian streets in downtown, and then waiting with desperation for a bus to take me home quickly to check my expected new acquisition. While finally in my room, I remove with trembling hands the plastic covering the CD, open it with strength and the disc finally finds its way to my player. Read more ›› |

"Ohne dich" in a German lesson? Bad choice for beginners, because some of the lyrics are written with lyrical grammatic, like "Dahin wo ich sie zuletzt gesehen ["HABE" fehlt]

Reise Reise Amerika and Stein un Stein are my favorites on this album.

This album was one of the first huge disappointments in my music-listening life. It's extra disappointing since it starts off better than any full-length Rammstein had released before it (fact!) And then after a few songs it just turns into shit. Really unlistenable shit.

Written by Zap on 02.02.2015 at 20:27 No fucking way the first couple of songs of this album match songs like "Wollt Ihr Das Bett In Flammen sehen?", "Sehnsucht", "Engel", etc.

Written by X-Ray Rod on 02.02.2015 at 20:32 The combination of Reise Reise and Mein Teil beats the combination of Sehnsucht and Engel for me, although Sehnsucht is the best song out of the four. Also, did you not see I said "fact!" ? That means it's true!

Written by Zap on 02.02.2015 at 20:48 If I was answering you with both a video of my lovely Elliot as well as an (awesome) rap song. It's pretty obvious I was joking too. But seriously: No fucking way.

Written by X-Ray Rod on 02.02.2015 at 20:49 I suspected so  Well, if you agree or not; the rest of this album has one saving grace: its lyrics. They're great. As usual with Rammstein. (and that's a fact as well)

Written by Zap on 02.02.2015 at 20:52 Rammstein's lyrics are always a joy. But yeah, not only do I disagree with the beginning but I also consider 2 songs from the second half of the album to be awesome (the lyrics help): Stein Um Stein and Amour are awesome.

Amerika is easily the band's 2nd best standalone single after Sonne, but the rest of the album is barely worth the price of admission.

Some excelent songs here Dalai Lama is very deep, Reise, Reise is from a german poem, Amerika and Moskau are cool and fun, Ohne Dich is wonderful, Mein Teil has a very controversial theme, Amour - how fucked up the cocaine addiction is

So much more better and engaging than boring-ass Sehnsucht. With that said these guys made the smart choice of making all of their hit singles their pivotal tracks so credit where credit's due and all that.
---- I may not have the largest collection but I certainly have the absolute best
