It just occurred to me, could the new album be called "F & M" as a reference to Hansel & Gretel, since they are a boy and a girl? And most songs are taken from said stage show? Or is it a play on S & M? Hmmm...

Well... the ACTUAL long version of the album is "Frau & Mann" Which basically translates to Woman and Man. Everyone just keeps shorting it to F & M for some reason...
Either way... your assumptions could very well hit the nail on the head there with the relation to Hansel and Gretel.
I hope the two missing ones I posted earlier are released as b-sides or something. It’s weird how under wraps all that stuff was kept in spite of it being on stage!
I feel like making a Hitler Reacts meme video with him supporting the project and being pissed at the haters. lol
I still can't get enough of Steh Auf. Didn't think I'd still like Lindemann with german vocals but it doesn't feel like Rammstein at all still.
Cover art for "F & M" now up: https://www.amazon.com/F-M-Deluxe-Li.../dp/B07XCXWHD5
edit: this has been up for a long time, lol:

Fuck yeah!
Translation:
I Don’t Know
I don’t know my name
I don’t know who I am
Don’t know where I’m from
I go, don’t know where
Forgot every day, forgot every night
Where I was, what I did
When did it start, how did it start
Where I was, what I did
I don’t know
I don’t know
And I keep on walking alone
And when it rains, it rains on me
And the clouds don’t go away
In the end, I’m always wet
I don’t know which hour
I don’t know which day
Don’t know what I have told
And don’t know what I said
SoI keep walking
Without stopping
I’m looking for something
But don’t know what
I’m walking all alone
An always alone
Sun is everywhere
But none above me
I don’t need a mirror
Don’t know my face
I walk diligently only at night
Hiding from the light
Where I was
And where I’m from
Have no idea
Don’t remember anymore
All the endless streets
Don’t know what it means
I don’t know my parents
Don’t know where I was born
I don’t know
I don’t know
And I keep on walking alone
And when it rains, it rains on me
And the clouds don’t go away
In the end, I’m always wet
I don’t know which hour
I don’t know which day
Don’t know what I have told
And don’t know what I said
So I keep walking
Without stopping
I’m looking for something
But don’t know what
I don’t know
I just don’t know

I was all ready to go to bed (2am - early for me... Been going to bed at 5am lately, but need to be up early tomorrow) and then I came here and saw this. I must be on my 6th or 7th listen in a row. I love this track.
Fantastic!
We’re so spoiled, lol, the video for the song premieres in a little over 3 hours from now. Lindemann says it was created by artificial intelligence using still images.
Well that was an interesting video, to say the least. Something disturbing about it...
I'd never have thought I would say this, but this new Lindemann record apart from imho too cheesy synth-lines is shaping up to become more interesting than Rammstein at this point. I get that having the lyrics in English would distinguish it more from the big R, but Till delivers some solid vocals here. Both tracks are pretty tight, so I'm really looking forward to this record.
Pain is really good. I got into pain back in 2002ish when the record "Nothing Remains the same" came out. Lead single "Shut your mouth" is a great introductory point to the band.
The record that "coming home" is on, is also titled "coming home" which is a fantastic record. These are probably his 2 best records with pain. Some of the records in between these 2 were kind of forgettable and can be skipped IMO. His first record "Rebirth" would be a solid 3rd pick if I had to pick another standout record. Give these a spin. I never really got into his Hypocrisy stuff though, as it's more growly metal. The vocals in that project turn me off.
Wow, Till is on a roll! A new collection of poems titled "100 Gedichte" will be out in march. As I loved "Messer" but didn't quite enjoy "In stillen Nächten" I'm curious how this new one will come along. Also his father's book "Mike Oldfield im Schaukelstuhl" will be re-released next year with a new epilogue by Till himself. Reminds me of reading that book again these days...
Too bad the two bonus tracks are Mathematik and a piano version of "Ach so gern". But I'm still excited for the record!
Knebel is now available. Acoustic guitar... Till’s vocals... can’t go wrong!
spoiler: and then 2:26 kicks in... lmao

To be shown once and never again? Hope someone is able to save a copy.
Oh wait here it is uncensored on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lindemann/c...el_uncensored/
I watched it. I didn't want to hear any new music, but I caved in fear of never getting to see the uncensored version ever if I missed my opportunity today.
Song is... OK. Kinda reminds me a bit of Puppe in the sense how it starts really slow and gets brutally powerful near the end.
Not usually a fan of slower songs, might be a grower. Worst of the 3 so far. But not terrible by any means. if that's the worst song on the record, that's still a win in my books.
Still swinging and hitting 3/3 in my books with these songs.
Weird video, as usual.
