What is being referred to in the quote is the award that the German rock band received at this year’s Revolver Golden Gods Awards: Best Live Band. This is truly a remarkable accomplishment, not because Rammstein doesn’t deserve the award, but because in the last decade the band has played one show on US soil (at Madison Square Garden this past December). Obviously the lack of US shows didn’t keep fans from voting them to win the coveted award.
According to Rammstein, this is the first US award that they have received, and regardless of what happened in the last decade, they are hitting the road for a string of US dates. “We are looking forward to living up to this tribute on our US tour.”
The US tour kicks off this Thursday at the IZOD Center, with Combichrist opening the show. This marks the beginning of Rammstein’s first North America tour in 10 years.
