... that Bryan Adams took the photograph used in the cover art for Rammstein's eighth album Zeit? Source: American Songwriter - "Rammstein is set to release their eighth album Zeit on April 29, and have released the title track and cover art photographed by Canadian rocker Bryan Adams."
ALT1: ... that a song from Rammstein's eighth album Zeit was premiered to Thomas Pesquet while he was onboard the International Space Station? Source: NME - "Rammstein have premiered a song from a forthcoming new album by sharing it with French astronaut Thomas Pesquet, who is currently onboard the International Space Station."
Overall: All the requirements are met, so it's just a matter of settling on the hook. I find the ALT1 hook to be much more interesting than the primary hook, but I think it is too wordy. I recommend this variation:
Yawaraey, with all due respect I think not listing the new album as Neue Deutsche Härte is a very, very, very bold stance, I mean just listening to it there's throwbacks to Sehnsucht, several German metal websites still class it as that genre 1, 2, zeit.de alludes to how it's similar to the old Rammstein hardstyle, I would be inclined to think that we should still list it as Neue Deutsche Härte? I'd like to think only albums that are more experimental in nature should have references to genres due to differing opinions on what constitutes what genre, not so much for another Rammstein classique...

X750 I was merely trying to keep unsourced material out of the article, although I did keep it in the lead that they are a Neue Deutsche Härte band. I went ahead and re-added it, although I'm not sure why you didn't do that with those sources. yawaraey (talk) 14:08, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yawaraey, understood. I just decided it would be better to discuss it here instead of making a brash edit, I didn't actually intend to add a source for NDH, since I was under the impression that was the consensus. Hope that helps. X-750I've made a mistake, haven't I?20:57, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
In an effort to achieve consistency between the various wiki pages related to Rammstein, I added “Angst” as a single in the drop down information tab, after “Zick Zack” and before “Dicke Titten”. If Angst is not considered a single, it needs to be removed from the singles table on the Discography page as well as anywhere else. “Angst” is technically a video single so should be included with the other 3.
Same thing with song translations; if it says the German means one thing on one page, it needs to be the same everywhere else. My edits to the Zeit album page and “Dicke Titten” single page reflect that. “Big Boobs” is the most accepted translation of the song by most people. 97.118.188.136 (talk) 08:46, 28 May 2022 (UTC) A New video will published! A New song "Adieu" (24 November 2022, 17:00 CET) The video duration is 8:51
The single by Rammstein will be released on 25 November 2022[reply]
