Position in the Band: Drums
Date of Birth: May 11, 1966
A Little About Him: Christoph is a very
energetic drummer who enjoys the music he plays and the band he is in and
personally I think nobody could fill his place. If you have seen the video/DVD
"Live aus Berlin" the solo in "Weisses Fleisch" is awesome
and very well performed!

A Little About Him: Richard is the found
member of Rammstein who writes most of the music for the bands songs. Richard
enjoys the who stage presentation for Rammstein because he says it is great fun
but he is also a great guitar player with solos in various songs such as
"Links 2 3 4" and "Herzeleid."
Name: Paul Landers
Position in the Band: Rhythm Guitar

Position in the Band: Lead Vocals
Date of Birth: Jan. 4, 1963
A Little About Him: Till the infamous lead
singer of Rammstein who is a trained pyro-technician that performs crazed acts
on stage that include shooting flames above the crowd, wearing boots with
fireworks attached and performing "Buck Dish" with a fake dildo. These
antics have got them into trouble a few times.
Name: Oliver Reidel
Position in the Band: Bass
Date of Birth: Apr. 11, 1971
A Little About Him: Oliver seems a quiet kind
of guy that may be a bit shy but his bass skills are unique to say the least.
Although only using a 4-string bass on the albums "Herzeleid" and
"Sehnsucht" he now uses a 6/7-string bass for the recently released
album "Mutter." On stage Oliver is usually position toward the back of
the stage and in the "Live aus Berlin" concert he has electrical tape
and sunglasses on his head.

A Little About Him: This wacky keyboarder has
a musical background with previous education in music. Flake's tunes are one of
the main things that make Rammstein's music so original. Although some of his
dancing on stage may seem a bit too weird he is a talented keyboarder.
