The Rammstein - Live aus Berlin DVD is a compilation of two live concerts filmed at Berlin's open-air Parkbühne ("park stage") Wuhlheide in August 1998. The DVD offers 17 of the band's songs, most of which are found on the two CD albums "Sehnsucht" and "Herzeleid." The show itself is a very entertaining performance with plenty of the usual stunts, pyrotechnics, and lighting effects you'd expect from an industrial metal band.

There's nothing better than this DVD. Rammstein show to us that they are the biggest and better German band ever. A lot of special effects and great musics like Du Riechst So Gut and Bestrafe Mich. I recommend it.. That's it Rammstein ROX
...or flogging an (almost) dead horse?Controversial Industrial band Rammstein proved with this video that a lot of effects can make up for lacks in songwriting - while "Herzeleid", their first album, was like a blow of fresh kerosene to the German Independent scene, "Sehnsucht" only copied the formula of harsh guitars and electronic rhythms close to Dancefloor, trying to add one up by even more drastic lyrics.Nonetheless, Rammstein became a kind of cult on both sides of the ocean, due to the lyrics (because they were understood...or not, depending on the location), due to their image of the strict and strong German which brought them sometimes dangerously close to the right-wing scene (which they aren't), due to the media hysteria around them.Lots of pyrotechnics and the exalted show of frontman Till Lindemann do actually guarantee a lot of entertainment, and if you are new to the phenomenon Rammstein, you will be fascinated. If you strip the concert down to the pure performance, you'll notice soon that the songs doesn't differ much from the studio recordings, and the overkill on effects is also killing any spontaneous creativity since everything must be timed on the spot (or it's Grilled German tonight).Well, I do have enjoyed all three albums ("Mutter" was released in 2001) of Rammstein though there is a notable decline in quality and creativity from the first to the last, but a good concert is a bit more than torching down the stage (for me).6/10
This DVD shows the pure power of a Rammstein performance. The energy of Till and the rest of the band explodes through the tv, in a totally outstanding performance.Having seen these guys live myself, I can say that the video leaves out nothing... from the first song "Speil Mit Mir" they don't stop!Superbly filmed and edited, this is a must see for Rammstein fans.
Definetly one of the best hard rock live shows I have seen. Loud and entertaining...it seems the Germans know how to rock, with a capital R! They are now one of my top 3 heavy metal bands. One thing is for certain...if you can't watch this movie with the volume cranked on a stereo...don't bother
