Rosetta are back in the studio recording their follow up to 07’s stunning Wake/Lift.

The band have joined the studio diaries bandwagon, and in their first video there’s already a sneak peak and what we can expect.

News: German Retailers Say ‘Nein’ to Rammstein

Rammstein’s new album, ‘Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da’ has been deemed so “harmful” to children that it is no longer to be sold to under 18’s, with those over the age of 18 now having to buy it under the counter.

The cover of the album features the band eating the flesh of a woman, whilst the special edition includes six pink, latex replicas of the band’s penises.

The German industrial rockers have always courted controversy, but this is the first time the band has fallen foul of the snappily titled ‘German Office for the Examination of Media Harmful to Young People’, who considered the album’s themes and art to be damaging to young minds.

Now, I’m not being funny but if Rammstein’s tongue in cheek sexual odes are considered harmful to nippers, then what about the likes of Mika eh? Ban that sick filth.
