It’s Rammstein Release Day!
Rammstein’s eighth studio album, Zeit, dropped today! You can listen on YouTube or your favorite streaming services (or go buy it if you’re lucky enough to live somewhere that still has a music store). I pre-ordered both a vinyl copy and the special edition CD, but they won’t arrive until next week. What’s the point in pre-ordering? Lol.

Along with the full album being released today, Rammstein shared their third single from Zeit, a track entitled “Angst,” and its official video. Check it out below and spend this glorious day blasting the eleven new songs from our favorite Germans.
