RAMMSTEIN SET JIMMY KIMMEL ABLAZE

 Monday, May 23rd, 2011 at 12:30pm by

This video of Rammstein performing their biggest hit “Du Hast” on Jimmy Kimmel Live last week doesn’t even come close to the number and magnitude of fire, explosions, lights and other stage spectacles that the band brought when we saw them in New Jersey a couple of weeks back. Still, it does give you some idea of what a live Rammstein show is like, and since it’s pro-shot it’s much better than the fan-filmed videos we posted. So just imagine what you see below and multiply everything by two, including the size of the stage, and you’ve got it. Make sure you stay with this video until they light the guy on fire (srsly).

How many times do we think Kimmel practiced the title of Rammstein’s latest album before introducing the band? Also, how much do we think Rammstein got paid to play one song on national TV? Great exposure either way.

    Introduction translation: “Rammstein has a new album out, but who gives a fuck about anything off that! Here’s Du Hast!”

    That said – I’d really like to see this band live sometime before I die.

    • hater_guy

      lol, that’s what I got out of it.

      • Random

        Well they weren’t about to play “pussy” on jimmy kimmel…

        • Anthony

          Could have played any of the other singles from it though.

          • MachinaeSupremacist

            Other than that one about shoving barbed wire up someone’s urethra. Which leaves… Haifisch?
            Actually, that would have been pretty cool.

          • MachinaeSupremacist

            And just to be clear, I meant Haifisch, not having barbed wire shoved up your urethra.

  • Aether Jake

    Dude, I totally wish that that guy was just some crowdsurfer who got onstage, and their frontman just toasted him.

    • Strapping Young Lad

      HAA I watched this without reading and that’s almost what I thought at first! For a second, my head nearly exploded.

      • The Ghost With The Most

        Obviously fake bullshit almost fooled you, huh?

    What is in the singer’s mouth?

    • The I

      This statement pretty much sums up Rammstein’s live and personal history.

      (I love Rammstein)

  • Rusty McThulhu

    An led light attached to a transparent tube running into his mouth. Its awesome

    • necro mans

      i am wearing that to the next dentist visit.

    • ha

      such a simple, yet amazing idea

    • MachinaeSupremacist

      It’s in one of their videos, too… but that time, he ran the wires through his cheek. Yes, I said through.

      • Guy

        apparently, in the making of that video (Ich Tu Der Weh), they said they actually put a holein the back of his jaw and put the light in through there so you wouldn’t have to see the wire going in his mouth. It apparently got infected, so, I guess they let it heal, and just started doing it that way.

        • MachinaeSupremacist

          Hardcore.

  • tyler

    Dude I saw them live on this tour the 15th in Tacoma washingon. They fucking RULE ALL! Best live show I’ve ever seen (and I’ve been to a lot of shows). If you ever get a chance to see these guys live TAKE IT.

    for instance-as I said I saw them in Tacoma… I LIVE in fucking southern New Mexico about 2 hours from the Mexican border. I FLEW ACROSS THE COUNTRY for that show and it was well worth it!

    • Jack Meoff

      you do realize they were playing in Los Angeles? could have saved a few bucks retard

      • tyler

        Well jeez why didn’t I think of that? Its not like I checked the tour dates and decided I’d rather off myself than go to that hell hole of a city (state for that matter)…

        Also probably should have just COMPLETELY forgotten about my family in the Tacoma area, thus forfeiting the free place to stay/free use of a vehicle. You’re totally right though, I could have gone to LA.

        See kiddies? We can use this an an example of what happens when an asshole opens his mouth without the knowledge to back up the shit coming out of it.

        • bobcat

          mention Tacoma 3 times, then call L.A. a “hell hole”. HA.

          • tyler

            Lesser of 2 evils. The point is still valid.

            Besides Tacoma has Seattle which is pretty much the greatest city on earth. What does LA have besides serious water shortages and a whole mess of the fakest ass holes on the planet?

          • YourInsideisDisfigured

            Agreed… hahaha… we also don’t use the word “fakest”

    • http://www.facebook.com/whip.cracker Shannon

      Well, I travelled from Australia to see Rammstein in Tacoma, San Fransisco, LA & Vegas… very much well worth it!

  • The Ghost With The Most

    Look at that! Further proof of how much Rammstein sucks!

  • http://wifeswamp.tumblr.com WIfe Swamp

    I BET IT WAS SO ON WEED THAT YOU GET ON THE RIFF!

    • Pierceeze

      Thanks for the nonsensical comment. well done.

      • http://wifeswamp.tumblr.com WIfe Swamp

        right, yeah? just up and on a riff, man! like a ride you gotta be for!

        • slaytanic_mechanic

          i take it English is a second language for you

  • Josh

    I saw them in 2001. One of the best performances I’ve ever seen.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Colin-Frazier/100002182298476 Colin Frazier

    I kinda wish they would’ve play Haifisch, or something new off the album. Du Hast is still a great one though. Surprised that Till still does the lights in his mouth.

  • Some Random Dude

    I saw them back in ’98 on the Family Values tour and they stoled the show. The singer grabbed the keyboardist by the chain he had around his neck, bent him over doggystyle, and pulled out a huge fake dick. The crowd went silent. Then he started spraying water into the crowd with the fake dick. One of the most epic and hilarious things I’ve ever seen.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Tim-Wilkens/64601390 Tim Wilkens

    saw these guys back in 01. Yeah the performance is cool, but so is Lady Gaga’s. ALL GIMMICK in my opinion.

  • Dinoczar

    I saw these guys live in Chicago on the 10th, and it was the best show I have ever been to, hands down, must see, they did a double encore.

  • Mabel

    I remember that night… That show KICKED ASS!!! They only performed four songs and none of them from the new album… still, IT WAS AMAZING!!! I can’t wait till they tour LA again.

  • Bob Cock

    When Slayer was on Kimmel, they did a five song set and only aired one of the songs, so I bet they did a mini-set for the crowd.

  • sonas76

    I was going through articles at a fast rate and thought this one was titled “Rammstein Set Jimmy BUFFET Ablaze”.

    I would pay a lot to see that.

  • kfajlskdjf

    I was there! They played 5 songs and only one went on air.
