Summary: Great DVD for fans of Rammstein
Review: Considering everything you get - 17 tracks of live music (3 with 5 additional camera angles to choose from), 14:30 of interviews, 5.1 Dolby Digital sound (the Amazon info doesn't say it's there, but it is), and an additional hidden track for the controversial "Stripped" video (as previously mentioned here, hit 23, then Enter on your remote at the main menu) - fans of Rammstein can't afford not to have this DVD.The "Buch Dich" track has been edited out of the DVD version, but this is not a censored DVD; it's just the only one available, at least in Region 1 NTSC format. The only way to see "Buch Dich" is by picking up the VHS tape. If you're trying to decide between the two formats, I'd say the DVD is tops, hands down. I have both, and since I've gotten the DVD I haven't picked up the VHS even once. The video and audio are superior to that of the VHS, and the VHS doesn't have any of the additional features you can find on the DVD. Speaking of video and audio, they're both pretty good, but not great. There's some minor artifacting in the video due to the onstage smoke effects combined with the fact that this is just a single layer disc. The 5.1 Dolby Digital sound seems to be a bit lacking in bass (though the band never has been all that heavy on it) and the rear channels mostly only play crowd noise. But again, this DVD is definately the best way to enjoy a Rammstein concert, aside from actually being there.

Summary: The best home music video on the market
Review: This 17 song set captures all the intensity of a Rammstein live show. From the opener, 'Spielt Mit Mir' to the closing 'Seemann', Live Aus Berlin is packed with footage from Rammstein's stop in Berlin in August of 1999. This DVD catches all of the violence, the emotion, and the fire of Rammstein. Unfortunately, the DVD version cuts Buck Dich out, but the extras and improved picture and sound quality make the DVD the overall better purchase. Rammstein uses a lot of stage theatrics, from costumes, to flamethrowers, fireworks, and slick lighting, to make the show more exciting for the audience. Till Lindemann even sets himself on fire (wearing a special suit, of course) during the song, 'Rammstein.' I don't know what's cooler than that? Their musicianship is tight and top-notch as ever, just as good live as in the studio. The extras include an interview with the whole band, as well as multi-angle views of 'Tier', 'Du Hast', and 'Rammstein'. If you're a Rammstein fan, this is an essential to own, a real Rammstein fan would be hard-pressed not to have this in his or her collection. It's a much better buy, in my opinion, than the 'Live Aus Berlin' CD, the visuals are half of Rammstein's show. Available on VHS and DVD.

Summary: Just to let you know
Review: I just want to let you know that Rammstein created an English version of Du Hast for the United States with the name "You Hate" I fluently speak German and 'Hate' In German is spelled hasst. The song is spelled hast. The correct translation for the song is 'You Have', so whoever wrote the review on this dvd is stupid to talk about Rammstein making kids do crap, if all you critics got what you wanted, we'd have some pretty lame ass bands..

Summary: Richard sets the standard for what real women want
Review: Since Rammstein is my favourite band of all time, I cannot say anything bad about them because it's virtually impossible. However, I was dissapointed with the fact that buck dich was edited. It's not like we're targeting a certain audience here! Us Amerikans! Light! Trying to protect our children who see enough crap anyways, at the expense of the die hard fan who really wanted to see Flake and Till...The sound was very good, and I basically have Live aus Berlin on daily. I love the fact that I can watch Richard the whole time during Du Hast and Tier, but what's up with sticking footage from different songs in there????? Oh well. I was satisfied with having the interview; Richard is quite passionate and expressive and the interview as a whole really clears up any misconceptions people may have about the guys. You technically can't misunderstand them, really, if you listen and give the time of day....Buy if u are lazy and prefer being able to skip songs, or if u want the interview, buy the dvd. If you want better camera angles and the full footage, get the vhs.

Review: Alright listen folks. Correct. "Du Hast" in german DOES NOT, REPEAT, DOES NOT mean "You Hate". Look it up, www.freetranslation.com will tell you. The song is about a girl who asks a guy to marry her and he gives her no answer. "Du hast mich gefragt" means "You asked me". Holy scheiße. anyways. This DVD is great, the music is great, and the performance is great. Check it out, the only reason lots of people in USA might not like it is because there is not a lot of movement. They substitute pyrotechnics in Europe, but in the USA there is this little thing called a "flame range" where flames can not shoot more than a designated number of feet on stage. So there. Now buy this DVD and help the economy.

Summary: almost as good as being there, almost
Review: Seeming Rammstein is one of my favourite bands and i had just gotten a dvd player I though i'd may aswell buy this dvd, and what did i get??? I got the best metal dvd performance you can get!!! The dvd contains 17 tracks from their albums Herzeleid and Sehnsucht(done live)and the extra features you get the concert with german subtitles and you get a multicamera mode for the 3 songs Tier, Du Hast and Rammstein. With the multicamera mode you get a choice of 6 angles which lets you decide what you would like to mostly see e.g. directors cut, guitars, drums, bass and keys, wides and vocals. Another extra feature you get is a 14:30 interview with the band. The interview allows you to have a choice of subtitles including English, Spanish and French, and if your computer can read dvd's you can insert this dvd and you view a rammstein trivia fan contest containing 140 questions. The performance was great. Rammstein perform with a great deal of colourful lights and mist and there is a great use of fire at the concert. The dvd lets you see all the action including the violence and as a special treat for the fans, rammstein use explosives, flame throwers, flaming arrows and fireworks and the main highlights of the dvd are the tracks Rammstein were Till Lindeman(singer) performs on fire(using safety clothesing) and another highlight is Engel were the guitarists daughter plays as the girl in the cage with fire. My favourite performance is Du Riechst So Gut were Till Lindeman(singer) shoots flaming arrows at the beginning of the song. Another great thing about the performance is that Till Lindeman(singer) didn't just stand there and sing, he sang while acting like that people can understand the message he is trying to get across. The crowd is good aswell, they are very loud. They jump up and down or nod their heads for most of the time and they join in on the choruses and before and after every song they show their respect by clapping or whistling, so if you like metal dvd's with big crowds then this is for you. The subject of the songs are mainly about various types of love(even says in interview) and there are a few songs about religion. The disturbing songs about love include Du Riechst So Gut which talks about stalking and Spiel Mit Mir talking about gay love(in an explicit way which is why its bad). Ok, now onto the the nondisturbing songs about love. The nondisturbing songs about love include Wilder Wein which is about love including a bottle of whine. The songs about religion include the song Engel and Asche Zu Asche and yes Rammstein do include violence in some songs including Weisses Fleisch which is just about mindless violence, so if you have a faint heart and are thinking about getting this, i suggest you not look at the lyrics translated which may put you off. Ok, i've basically told you a fair bit about the dvd, so now i shall chucck in some reminders. The song Bueck Dich is censored from the dvd seeming people thought not only the lyrics but the performance was explicit, though in my opinion i though the performance was silly and in the dvd there is a hidden track called stripped, i hav'nt tried it, but i hear you press 23 at main menu and you then press enter. Overall thankyou for your time reading this review. I hope it gave you more of an idea of the dvd and hopefully you may buy it.

Summary: Totally Worth It!
Review: I was trying hard to decided between dvd or video but since the dvd didnt have Buck Dich, and I really wanted that one I choose video. The performance totally was worth losing all the extra interviews because its really awesome. This video is great, and I dont really like concert footage that much but trust me you'll love it. The sound is good and the band is totally hot with thier make up and costumes. If you like Rammstein, this is one to own!
