There was some sort of sex thing going on in the beginning.
Big deal.

don't want to see another one.

I can enjoy that.
- I don't know how much over-the-top you can get with that.
That's pretty much max.
- Trash. Garbage. Junk. Stupid.
- The generation now would appreciate it.
But not for me.
- It's not one of my favorite forms of music.
It's way out there.
- Raising my sons Benny and Rafi,
I got to listen to a lot of heavy metal,
because they loved it.
And the truth is, I really didn't.
When you're raising kids, you sit and you listen.
And you try to understand it.
And actually, I got into it with them.
- (FBE) So what did you think of what you just saw?
- I actually really enjoyed it. I mean, I loved the music.
And I loved most of the imagery.
- I've never seen anything like this before.
And I was quite interested in it, and it's an education.
- I enjoy their beat, and I didn't--
I don't know enough German to get all the words,
but I kinda liked the Bratwurst and the Sauerkraut.
That kinda made sense. (chuckles)
- It is definitely a very classic metal kind of sound.
It's-- it's-- it fits right in there.
The German language VERY much lends itself to the heavy metal.
It has-- it has a gritty sound to it.
- I saw some nudity.
I saw some pornography.
Um, maybe they are saying...
"We should have more freedom in this area or something."
(chuckles)
- I don't know why they show things like that.
I won't even let my kids watch it if I had younger kids.
- (speaking German)
- (FBE) What does that mean?
- I think it's very lousy.
- (FBE) So this was Rammstein, a German band
originally formed in 1994.
- Oh, I-- oh! Okay. 'Cause I know you--
You all have been asking for that. I like 'em. Thank you.
- (FBE) Rammstein is known for having some of the most
extreme music videos like we showed you here.
And that obviously leads to controversy.
- Oh yeah, I can imagine.
- (FBE) So finally, do you think their videos
fit their type of music? Or is it all just too much for you?
- Well, it certainly apparently fit their kind of music
and obviously has some appeal to somebody, but not to me.
It's too much for me.
- Oh, it definitely fits. It fits. It makes it fun.
- It fits with their music, because
their music is weird, and so are they.
- Yes, I think their videos track perfectly
with the type of music that they play.
It's just back to "Let's eat a bat onstage" Ozzy Osbourne land.
- It really...
doesn't take a lot of talent to do what they're doing.
It's about sex. It's about the provocation.
- That's some of the best of that genre that I've seen.
That was like theatrical quality in a way.
- They're right on the edge, which makes it perfect for me.
You know, when you run stuff on the edge,
you're gonna have some people fall away from you.
But you're gonna have a gathering of people
that really enjoy that edgy part of life.
