RAMMSTEIN Guitarist RICHARD Z. KRUSPE On New Album - "I Don't Want To Be Another KISS, Where People Talk About The Make-Up And Stuff, And No One Talks About The Music"

Rammstein guitarist Richard Z. Kruspe recently spoke with Consequence Of Sound about his new Emigrate album, A Million Degrees, and the forthcoming Rammstein album, which may see the light of day in April 2019. Following is an excerpt from the story.

Kruspe: "For me, one of the reasons to step back into making records with Rammstein was to balance the popularity of the band as a live act with the actual music. With Rammstein, people tend to talk about the fire and all the live stuff. I thought, ‘I don’t want to be another KISS,’ where people talk about makeup and stuff like that and no one talks about the music. I wanted to do a record that stands out even more than our past records, and I kind of find when I listen to the (new) record, it’s like Rammstein 3D, if I can summarize it. We’re happy to work with my good friend Olsen Involtini, who also worked on Emigrate records. He a great friend of mine, and he brought certain kind of harmonies into the world of Rammstein, which I like.”
