RAMMSTEIN keyboardist 2010 Flake interview about shock rock | Raw & Uncut

[@jumpmanhat]

This wouldn't have been "one of your weirdest interviews" had you not been trying to fit his band into a mould of what you think they are. Instead if you listened to what he was actually saying, you could have had one of your best interviews. Clearly he cares about art and self expression more than just trying to get reactions out of people for attention, which is why you trying to get him to admit to for the majority of this interview.

[@femke6313]

jumpmanhat Flake is very willing to express himself trough an interview... but you have to ask smart questions. you could see behind his sunglasses he was rolling his eyes with some of the stupid questions he got. if the interviewer did some research on the band and specially Flake ... hé should have known not to bring up media attention as he has clearly stated multiple times he hates multimedia and doesn't want to understand it as it takes away a lot of creativity.

[@DelasVC]

Couldn‘t have said it better!

[@mariacarolinazanini3575]

That's exactly what I thought when I watched the video.. To know Rammstein you really need to go deeper and deeper in terms of art, music and expression... The worst part is that Flake gave him some opportunities to ask him more interesting questions.. but....

[@IxiaRayne]

Maybe that's a side effect of not being able to understand their lyrics, in combination to being used to bands that only want to shock because of the outrage. I remember Flake saying, that explaining things only reduces the experience and impact something can have. That's why he doesn't watch trailers for movies or making of - documentaries. (-> Look up the "Sonne" making of - video on their channel, for that tidbit). Flake is an outstanding artist. They all are.

[@alltradejack]

Exactly! If you go in with a preconceived and misinterpreted notion of the band and especially to Flake, you deserve what you get. I appreciate Flake for not getting defensive or explanatory and putting the guy in his place. It was a stupid interview premise to begin with.

[@mikesoerensen7595]

Flake is a class act, I've never heard of any ego problems in this band. They all seem like super, super genuine and wonderful people, despite all of their succes.

[@ComradeMorlac]

that is not true, actually before the mutter era they were almost dispatched... richard has ultra huge ego

[@yurievyurii5582]

Idk this interview put me off. His effort to be as cool and nonreactive as possible seems as fake as those tattoo sleeves. I like Rammstein still but woah.

[@lpsp442]

+Comare Morlac This is definitely true, Rammstein are mortals too. And as much as I love Richard Krispy-Krusp, he is an egotist.

[@agnesefiorentini5261]

Kitten Lyric Hi I'm kinda new in the Rammstein fan base, and I wanted to know why is Richard called with these names sometimes, and what really happened during the Mutter era? 'cause I'm not really understanding the whole situation you know... 😂 So, if could explain me, it would be really great😄 Thank you so much. (Sorry if there's any mistake. I'm not a native English speaker)

Here we see Flake giving a classic trolling of Western media 10/10

[@bborud]

Jordy M i wouldn’t actually say it’s trolling. What you’re seeing is a culture collision between an interviewer from a culture that desires superficial opportunities to be offended and a subject from a culture that doesn’t take itself too seriously while confusingly taking other aspects of life very seriously. He is actually being quite sincere. I don’t know if his books have been translated into English, but I’d recommend reading them as they might shed some light on him and the band.

[@ItBazooka]

the only reason this interview is so "strange" is because you had an image about what Rammstein is and kept trying to have Flake confirm your thoughts. The questions were kind of repetitive and he was clearly getting annoyed.

[@MrTR909]

Kitten Lyric I had the same impression that he was joking with the interviewer, I think I have seen Flake laughing as he realzied that he catched him. I mean, common, when Flake said, they want to help the kid to grow up, the coin must have been fallen.

[@nilsandresen9912]

Y'all aren't german and don't get the core idea of Rammstein, do you? Have you ever analysed one of the many songs? I get that it's fucking difficult for foreigners, but you may get a better understanding of Rammstein. They don't do shock rock. They are freedom.

[@TheDemocrab]

@@nilsandresen9912 I don't think it's just whether you're German or not, I'm Australian and even I get that they're not out to shock people but just to be able to sing, talk and express themselves however they want.

[@SwampyTrails]

I believe the overall sentiment is that they create art for themselves only, and then share it. True artist.

[@edvinparmeza1298]

they don't expect to please anybody, they just feel good when they do their art and never change their direction of music, they just do what they are capable of doing perfectly well and what they want...they also were lucky to work with great people, like Jacob Hellner (the producer of the albums), Jonas Akerlund, Jorn Heitmann and Zoran Bihac (the directors of some music videos)

[@karolinedemon]

Yeah doing art for people and to touch certain topics is nice and good but doing art on and for your own is on a whole another level

[@glitterybee21]

And this is why I love Rammstein. I had to pause this for a good few minutes until I’d finished laughing. I can’t believe how dumb these questions are and how blatantly Flake is trolling this guy. That aviator, choker and fake tattoo sleeve combo though. 😂😂

[@guitarheel99]

This is what happens when you go into an interview with a member of Rammstein and the only Rammstein song you've ever heard is "Du Hast". Jesus that was painful.

[@MajorKusanagi43]

This genuinely seems like a prank by Rammstein. Flake doesn't have arm tattoos (you can see on his right arm how he's just wearing tattoo sleeves) and usually doesn't wear anything around the neck. Also, his chill laid-back demeanor as if he was some other cliche rockstar is so far away from how Flake appears in German interviews, where he is one of the funniest and most comedic persons I have ever seen. On a different occasion, for example, Flake read excerpts from his book on stage and his introduction to the audience itself was funnier than many standup comedy acts. Flake also recorded the audiobook of his book and reads it so childlike and silly which makes the text all the funnier. The only way that I can explain Flake's demeanor in this interview is that the entire band sat together and discussed how they can make this interview as absurd and ridiculous as possible :D

[@limpicatto]

I think he comes up with all that stuff by himself

[@omerorhun3373]

[@VampiraVonGhoulscout]

Things like nudity and sex are controversial only to conservative or religious places like America and the UK. In Germany, nobody gives a fuck. They have bare titties in beer ads.

[@Ve-suvius]

@@VampiraVonGhoulscout They almost only have these things like cannibal (Armin Weiss/ 'mein teil'), incest BDSM etc. in their lyrics. It's all about death, and sex, power. Disaster (Rammstein). And now with Lindemanns Ich hasse kinder... Give me a break. Even in the beginning Lindemann was already swinging a fake cock onstage, that had water or beer coming out. This is an easy(cheap) way to get attention . Not saying their music is bad. I have most of their music as well. But it starts to get boring. A bit too much of the same. Shock Rock for sure.

[@Katkohberg]

@@Xzellent true love

[@NeuroticNightmares07]

Flake is giving very intelligent and thoughtful answers. Just because he didn’t say what everyone expected doesn’t make it a weird interview. Myself, I am tired of bands simply existing to shock people or that try to be overtly relevant. They are watered down replicas of a million before them. I think the beauty of Rammstein is that they TRULY don’t give a fuck. They do their thing and if they are happy that is what matters. True fans will see that. Fickle fans will love on to the next popular item. Bravo to Flake for the awesome interview. Also the real shock was in the interviewers voice when Flake said he doesn’t have a computer. Hahaha. Perfection.

[@smisma4600]

That contrast between the interviewer asking eloquent and meaningful questions in English and Flake answering in this Berlin German accent, basically saying "We just want to do our fucking thing" the whole time😂. I liked the interview.

This interview isnt weird you just dont get what he's saying even though he's telling you again & again

[@valkleinhans1]

Absolutely right! Flake repeated his thoughts multiple times. All it took was listening.

[@TheColognican51213]

As a German myself, it's obvious to me that he didn't seem to need a translation himself. I'm actually wondering why he didn't answer in English as well ..

[@BangerTV]

I think the interview is a bit of performance, non?

[@argetect2847]

Indeed.

[@daliend]

He totally rickrolled you on that Sam. They are fluent in english, Rammstein even have some songs translated to english by themselves. He and Till definally tricked you on that (Hell even his solo project Lindermann is all in english tongue). I've seen a lot of interviews from them and this is not the first time they pulled this one off, maybe it was to avoid interviews or just to fuck with you. Or maybe because you were in Germany, they felt like to just speak german.

[@lern2swim]

I don't think I've ever seen an interview with Flake in English. He might now speak it. Till does, but he's not completely fluent. Richard is fluent.

[@coobanez777]

I don't think it was done to fuck with him, but simply because some people far prefer to speak their first language as to respond to the questions as eloquently as possible. If some of that eloquence is lost in translation then I suppose that it's not as severe of a loss as not being able to find the best words in a limited or unpracticed second language. Especially in response to questions that are most likely going to get air time in a documentary film or television series.

Every time I learn or see anything about Rammstein it makes me appreciate them even more. Yes their Pussy video was a viral hit but it's not just that. it's above all a great song. I think that separates them from most bands/groups. It's not one song, one gimmick that defines them, it's the whole Rammstein that makes Rammstein.

Kitten Lyric You think he is telling crap?!

[@MsKDvlog]

Ha ha. This is VERY Flake as I expected it might from what Sam says. He is quite old fashioned in some respects. You have to remember he grew up in communist East Germany. He was training to be a Doctor and his intelligence shows. choice was limited and in some aspects of life, things were more simple in some ways. He's the type of East German who sees the pros and cons of the old and new ways, like not being faced with as much choice. 'I don't have a computer' sums Flake up perfectly. :D I hope that gives some understanding and I've chosen the appropriate words in places.

[@hakka2363]

It's strange cause the questions you kept making were pretty clear not the reality of Rammstein, that's not what Rammstein is but you really wanted it to be, so you became reptetitive and he became annoyed, the end.

[@manifestgtr]

Flake hits something that was a MAJOR factor for me growing up in the 90s-00s. When you went to a concert, the lights went out, everyone screamed and it was totally breathtaking. Then you were here in this place with several thousand like-minded people for a few hours and it felt like “this is OURS”. I really hope kids still get that experience nowadays. It doesn’t necessarily have to be something as goofy as Til and Flake doing their “buck dich” routine circa 1998…but something that feels distinct and new for your generation, regardless.

[@ryanthomas3210]

I would love to see the extended interview with Till Lindemann. In the Metal Evolution interviews, Flake always felt more reserved, more evasive in his answers. Till came across way more straightforward and direct, and I would love to see what more he has to say on the matter, especially as a fan of Rammstein myself. I love you guys at BANGER films, so rewarding to be subscribed and to see what you put out. Keep it up \m/

[@DianaMorales-st2he]

[@JohnSmith-kd6ip]

Nothing weird about the intervew. He gave honest answers. He doesn't care what the media or the public wants. And he doesn't want to be limited to categories. As a fellow (East) German living in the US, I feel people have expectations in me to be like them. But different cultures sometimes have different views on life and what's important.

He obviously cares more about the music than the entertainment and visual aspects of the band. He is a musician. He cares about the music he creates.
