Guesting on the German podcast Rodeo Radio, Rammstein drummer Christoph Schneider revealed that the COVID-19 pandemic, which brought the band's 2020 tour plans to a halt, have been working on new music. Rammstein Belgium extracted that portuion of the conversation from the interview and posted it with subtitles. Check it out below.

Schneider: "We still have so many ideas lying around, so many unfinished songs. We have met and we are working on new songs. We want to work on songs, but whether or not it will turn into an album, nobody knows yet."

Rammstein released their latest (self-titled) album in 2019, which was rumoured to "maybe" be their last record.

Rammstein recently announced the postponement of their North American tour. A message from the band follows:

"Sadly, but in the best interests of everyone’s health and safety, we have to postpone our North America Tour. We are now working on rescheduling the tour in 2021, so please hold on to your tickets as they will be honored at the rescheduled show dates. We hope to have an update on that shortly and will communicate it once we do. For more information visit: aegpresents.com."

Rammstein recently announced the new, rescheduled dates for their European tour, which had to be cancelled due to COVID-19. All shows have now been rescheduled to 2021, and already-purchased tickets will remain valid for the new dates.
