Rammstein — Pinkpop, 2016

Live capture of Rammstein headlining the Pinkpop festival at Megaland (Landgraaf, Netherlands) on 11 June 2016. The German industrial sextet — Till Lindemann on vocals, Richard Kruspe and Paul Landers on guitars, Oliver Riedel on bass, Christoph Schneider on drums and Flake on keys — delivers a filmed live concert that sweeps across its catalogue, from Reise, Reise to Mein Herz brennt, taking in Du hast, Ich will and a cover of Depeche Mode’s Stripped. The set closes on the triptych Amerika, Engel and Sonne. Pyrotechnics, theatrical staging and massive Neue Deutsche Härte: this professional capture from Pinkpop’s official archive restores the visual and sonic excess of a Rammstein live show. A reference industrial-metal full concert, ideal for revisiting the band on a major European festival stage in 2016. Pinkpop, one of Europe’s oldest open-air festivals, provides a setting here worthy of the Rammstein spectacle. An official capture ideal for a full viewing of the concert.
