Albums Released January to June 2024

There have been several albums released so far in 2024, and I decided to compile them in a post separate from the EPs. Much as with the other list, I am sure I’ve missed a few, so if there are any you know of that are not shared here, feel free to tell me in the comments!

Be sure to check out my list of EPs that have dropped over the past 6 months, as well!

A Tribute Album to Rammstein is Coming Soon!

When I say “soon,” I mean soon. As in, August 25th. Four days from now.

I had heard the covers of “Feuer Frei!” by The 69 Eyes and “Engel” by Priest, and I thought it was kind of odd (and awesome) that suddenly everyone was releasing their take on infamous Rammstein tracks. Then, I stumbled across a post on a Front Line Assembly fan page and saw that those two releases are part of a bigger project.

I’m pretty excited about this! The album features versions of songs such as “Du Hast,” “Sonne,” “Radio,” and “Deutschland,” by a slew of artists, including Front Line Assembly, Skold, Julien-K, and more. I will include the full track list below. You can order your copy on Cleopatra Records’ site.

1. “Du Hast” – Burton C. Bell, Paul Ferguson, and MGT

2. “Deutschland” – Front Line Assembly

3. “Sonne” – Skold

4. “Engel” – Priest

5. “Amerika” – Laibach

6. “Feuer Frei!” – The 69 Eyes

7. “Ausländer” – Jah Wobble & Jon Klein

8. “Radio” – Julien-K

9. “Ich Will” – Stoneman

10. “Keine Lust” – Lacrimas Profundere

11. “Links 2 3 4” – Manntra

BONUS TRACKS

12. “Mein Teil” – Original God

13. “Du Hast” – Læther Strip

Priest Shares Cover of Rammstein’s “Engel”

Priest is a synthwave act from Sweden that consists of former members of Ghost. The band has been releasing music since 2017 and were signed to Cleopatra Records in 2021. Having just wrapped a tour in support of Powerman 5000, Priest dropped their second single – and second cover track – of 2023 today, an interesting take on Rammstein’s well-known song “Engel.” Listen here:
