They come close to being metal at times, but really they don't quite get there, think the main draw is that they sing in german, but from what I read across different metal boards, they are decent but hugely overrated.

Spider Mastermind: Hmm, I really will have to check out their self-titled...everybody seems to like it alot, and the two tracks i've heard from it ("Bulls On Parade" and "Killing In the Name") are awesome.

Shunk Eat Enemy: Congratulations on your purchase of Sehn Sucht, it's a truly groundbreaking album. There are only two tracks off that CD that I do not like ("Kuss Mich" and "Stripped").

Deathdude, I can understand why some people might see Rammstein as overrated (given their world-reknownedness), but I think they deserve it. They have some truly creative lyrics as well as genius riffs. If you haven't yet heard them, take a listen to "Engel" and "Mein Teil".

Actually it's quite the opposite, that the band itself doesn't write anything that really stands out and just are another generic industrial rock band, with german singing. There are far better bands in their genre of music, plus it is annoying to hear that Rammenstein is assumed to be metal is the general consensus I have heard plenty around different metal boards.

I'll never get to go to a metal concert...you see, they don't really notice backwater hick towns.

Indeed...especially the chorus of "Klavier".
