Rammstein: Paris is a video album by the German metal band Rammstein . It was released on May 19, 2017. The FSK has released the album from the age of 16.

The audio recordings as well as the images for the video production were made on March 6th and 7th, 2012 during two Rammstein appearances and a dress rehearsal in the then Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy . Director was the Swede Jonas Åkerlund , who was already responsible for the Rammstein videos Man against Man , Pussy , I hurt you and Mein Land . According to Åkerlund, 30 cameras were used per concert during the filming, and ten more during the dress rehearsal - there were a total of 70 different camera positions. The cut took two years. According to Åkerlund, the publication was postponed in favor of the 2015 documentary Rammstein in America .

As with all six studio albums by the band, the audio production was the responsibility of the Swedish producer Jacob Hellner . Mixing engineer was Stefan Glaumann, who had already taken on this task for the albums Sehnsucht , Mutter , Reise, Reise and Rosenrot . Sound engineers Ulf Kruckenberg, who was involved in almost all of the band's album productions, were also involved, as well as Tom van Heesch, who worked on the 2007 Apocalyptica album "World's Collide".

In addition, a 90-minute version of the concert film was shown in cinemas worldwide on March 23 , 24 and 29, 2017, in which 16 of the 22 songs of the retail version released in May could be seen. At the cinema premiere, which took place on March 16, 2017 in the Volksbühne Berlin , director Jonas Åkerlund was also present in addition to the band . Rammstein: Paris grossed around € 1.1 million in the cinema. A total of 113,400 people saw the film in the cinema. Several cinema platforms had originally announced the concert film for the third week of November 2016. This appointment was canceled at short notice without giving any reason. The cinema version of the concert film was released with Dolby Atmos Sound, whereas the Blu-ray release was only sold with DTS-HD Master .

A Director's Cut comprising 22 songs on DVD or Blu-ray was released on May 19, and on May 26 the live CD, which was released at the same time, reached number one in the German album charts.

Reactions

The cinema presentation in March 2017 attracted a great deal of media attention and received both laudatory and devastating judgments in the German features section, both with regard to the content and the choice of the Volksbühne as the premiere location. Among other things, SpOn editor Jens Balzer wrote on the day of the premiere of “Rammstein: Paris” that, as the last major pop music event in the era of the (retiring) director Frank Castorf , it devalued everything that the house once stood for. He also referred to the band's environment as the "primal scene of AfD and Pegida".

On October 26, 2017, the film Rammstein: Paris was awarded the UK Music Video Award 2017 in the Best live concert category in the Roundhouse in the London district of Camden . This honors particularly creative, innovative or technically high-quality music film and music video productions.
