opmerkingen
Rammstein: Christoph Schneider, Christian Lorenz, Richard Z. Kruspe-Bernstein, Till Lindemann, Paul Lander, Oliver Riedel. Additional personnel includes: Khira Li (spoken vocals); Gunter Joseck (condutor); Film Orchestra Babelsberg (strings); Florian Ammon (programming); Bobo (background vocals). Engineers include: Ulf Kruckenberg, Michael Schubert. Recorded at Miraval, France; Galaxy, Belgium; Nukleus, Saal 1 Studios, Berlin, Germany. Where Germany's Rammstein explored a sinister, electronic-oriented sound in their previous work, MUTTER finds the doyens of doom turning more "organic," if no less ominous. In place of techno beats and synthesizers, this album offers crunching electric guitars and pounding drums, offset by operatic backing vocals and orchestral washes. The whole affair is awash with an almost Wagnerian sense of grandeur and an undeniable darkness. The unsettling aspects of MUTTER are underscored by Rammstein's vocals, which highlight the most guttural aspects of the German language, and the gloomy industrial-rock feel that pervades the album. It's clearly the band's intention to disturb, an agenda achieved with flying colors on this album, which looms large with barely suppressed rage and other ugly emotions rising to the sonic surface.

CMJ (4/9/01, p.5) - "...The band largely pull from the same bag of tricks that it used on 1998s SEHNSUCHT: Metallica-esque riffs, Gothic string pads, growling...The difference is that this time they've stepped-up their songwriting and production..."
