Rammstein Removes Controversial Song “Pussy” from Setlist
Last week, German metal band Rammstein made the decision to remove their song “Pussy” from their setlist.
The Controversial Song
“Pussy” is a track from Rammstein’s 2009 album Liebe ist fur alle da (Love Is There for Everyone). The single reached No. 1 in Germany and gained notoriety due to its explicit music video featuring the band members engaging in sexual acts with various women.
Setlist History
According to Setlist.fm’s Tour Statistics, “Pussy” is Rammstein’s 13th most-played song. It was first performed live in Berlin in October 2009 and was frequently played until 2013. The band reintroduced the song to their setlist in 2019 and had been regularly performing it until this month. The last time the track was played was on June 3, shortly after frontman Till Lindemann faced allegations and was dropped by his publisher.
Absence from Recent Performances
In their recent performances, Rammstein excluded “Pussy” from their setlist without replacing it with another song. Additionally, the signature moment of Lindemann shooting foam out of a canon shaped like male genitalia was also omitted.
Fan Reactions
Rammstein has not provided an official statement regarding their decision to stop playing “Pussy,” leading to speculation among fans. Many fans expressed disappointment that the song was not included in recent shows, considering it a fun and memorable part of the band’s live performances.
- “So they just stopped playing ‘Pussy’?” – Reddit user
- “I was really impatient to see ‘Pussy’ live. It’s one of their signature moments.” – Disappointed fan
Investigation and Consequences
Till Lindemann is currently under investigation in Berlin following allegations of sexual assault and drugging at Rammstein’s pre-show and after-show parties. As a result, Berlin has canceled the band’s after parties at their upcoming shows in the city. One of the band’s assistants, Alena Makeeva, who allegedly recruited women for the shows and parties, has been fired. Lindemann has also made changes, such as disabling Row 0 and getting rid of his private room under the stage.
Band’s Statement
In a statement posted on their social media, Rammstein condemned any transgressions and urged people not to engage in public prejudice against those who have made allegations. The band emphasized their right to not be prejudiced as well.
Conclusion
Rammstein’s decision to remove “Pussy” from their setlist has sparked discussion among fans. The controversy surrounding the song and the ongoing investigations have led to changes within the band and their performances.
