RAMMSTEIN: Video Footage Of Madison Square Garden Concert Available - Dec. 12, 2010

Fan-filmed video footage of German band RAMMSTEIN's December 11 sold-out concert at the world's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden in New York City, can be viewed at this location. A couple of the clips are available below.

The Madison Square Garden performance was the only U.S. show by the Berlin-based six-piece band, which had not performed in the United States since 2001. The show was announced September 27, tickets went on sale for the show Friday, October 8 at noon Eastern and before an hour passed, tickets were officially sold out. This made RAMMSTEIN the first German band in history to accomplish such a feat.

RAMMSTEIN first stormed America in 1998, touring with a set based on their Grammy-nominated breakthrough second release, "Sehnsucht", featuring "Du Hast", the song prominently featured in David Lynch's film "Lost Highway".

RAMMSTEIN's latest album, "Liebe Ist Für Alle Da", sold 22,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 13 on The Billboard 200 chart. Previously, the group's best rank came with its 1998 chart debut, "Sehnsucht", which peaked at No. 45 off the strength of its only U.S. radio chart hit, "Du Hast".

"Liebe Ist Für Alle Da" arrived in stores on October 20, 2009 through a marketing and distribution deal with Vagrant Records and Universal Music Germany. The album was produced by Jacob Hellner and RAMMSTEIN, with recording done at Northern California's Sonoma Mountain Studio. The first single from the 11-track release was "Pussy", which was released as a digital single on September 22, 2009 and accompanied by one of the year's most viral videos.

Till Lindemann - Vocals
Paul Landers - Guitar
Richard Z. Kruspe - Guitar

  1. I was there for this. They didn't even play LIFAD, which sort of upset me. I mean.. I know they don't want to play the same set over and over.. but taking out Fruhling in Paris would have been much better.
