Rammstein Album Riles Censors, Finally
A Highpoint for the Band


"Liebe ist für alle da" quickly shot to the top of the charts, not just in Germany, but also in Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Finland and the Netherlands. It reached number 2 on the French charts, number 16 in England and number 13 in the United States. The album is a worldwide success, and nowhere else did it offend anyone.

Nevertheless, the ban marks the high point of Rammstein's career. The country whose supposed softness the band members like to poke fun at, this country in which, according to Rammstein, only money counts and all other values are subordinate to capital, has been startled and is finally taking the taboo-breaking group seriously.
