German metal/rock

[clayton86]

I don’t understand a word they are saying but I’ve been listening to a lot of the German metal/rock bands. I’ve always listened to some rammstien which is probably why my Pandora account has been throwing more German metal at me and I’m starting to really like it and play it the most when working. 
 

lately been a lot of Megahertz. Like I said I don’t understand any of the lyrics they sound good. I’ve looked up the translation to some of the songs but reading it in English isn’t the same as hearing it in German it sounds better in German. 
 

anyone else listen to music in a different language they don’t understand haha.

About as close to a european language song I listen to and really like is an old 80's remake from and alt band Goldfinger. Just the last verse is in German. This one makes it into the workout playlist ...

The rest of the world excluding North America does it regularly because of the popularity of American music.

when it comes  to   german rock,  i listen to hardbone.  they only sing in english though. 

i listen to 4 swedish bands, thundermother, drain sth, bullet,  and mustache. they all sing in english too.  i would post links, but they'll just show up as videos

 

bands that i listen too that are not in english, that kick ass, are  below:

ningen isu is japanese. they've been around since the 80's and they're bad-ass

 

band maid is also japanese.  this album is great.  the rest of their catalog is...not for me

 

the hu is chinese/mongolian.  this is the only record they have out. it's unlike anything else. most folks i know don't like it, but i do.

 

 

i'll give an honorable mention to babymetal. i figure you've heard of them already though.

they have 4 or 5 songs i like, but that's about it really. also, if you don't know about loudness, check them out. they're japanese, also from the 80's.

A guy I went to high school with is in that kind of band, I believe they are called white chapel. I want to say they toured Europe several times

Love this band

Mainly Rammstein. Check out herzeleid.com (I think) for lyrics translations. Some of their stuff is quite clever and humorous, some just a tad disturbing! One song is even for us - Spawning Time (translated). Uh ya not exactly.

 

I like instrumental music though which needs no spoken language Lately tenor sax greats...John Coltrane, Stan Getz. Just discovering it. I'm a gigantic Billie Holiday fan and am branching out.

 

Edit:

Almost forgot Sepultura (spelling?). Brazilian metal band my ex-wife told me to check out long ago. I didn't care for it.
