content

The first disc contains a concert recording of the love is for everyone tour, which took place from November 2009 to May 2011. Most of the concert was recorded in front of 18,000 fans at Madison Square Garden in New York City on December 11, 2010. In the credits it is mentioned that some of the recordings are from two concerts in Mexico City on December 6th and 7th, and from Montreal on December 9th. This can also be determined using different interior designs, barriers and camera positions. French-language T-shirts from security staff and Québec flags are also often visible in the audience.

The second disc contains the documentary Rammstein in America , which includes numerous interviews with band members and prominent US colleagues such as Marilyn Manson , Chad Smith ( Red Hot Chili Peppers ), Moby , CJ Ramone , Steven Tyler ( Aerosmith ), Iggy Pop , Includes Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley from KISS , Wes Borland ( Limp Bizkit ), Scott Ian ( Anthrax ), Jonathan Davis and Munky Shaffer from Korn and Shawn Crahan ( Slipknot ). There is also a making-of for the album Liebe ist für alle on the DVD, which guitarist Paul Landers recorded.

Cover design

The album cover shows the outline of the Washington Monument , an obelisk painted in the colors of the US flag . At the top of the picture is the typical Rammstein lettering and at the bottom right is the title In Amerika in white. The background is silver. What is striking about the design is that, contrary to the flag law of the United States , the flag is positioned the wrong way round on the cover and booklet, i.e. the star field is not arranged on the top left.

The website laut.de rated the album with four out of a possible five points and described it as a successful documentation:

“ The balance between story elements and interspersed music snippets works extremely well. […] The style of the documentation is very classic. An off-speaker leads through the program, interviews provide the content, video clips illustrate the whole thing. That works consistently well. Especially people who knew little about Rammstein up to now, maybe even can't do anything with the music, the DVD gives an all-round view of the cultural phenomenon Rammstein using the example of America. [...] Words about Rammstein's live qualities are actually no longer needed. Even on the home screen, the six musicians are a force. Sure, you don't feel the heat, everything is a bit smaller - nonetheless visually impressive. The picture and sound quality are excellent, the show is planned down to the smallest detail. The band sound cracks massively from the stage, the atmospheric tone from the audience is by no means neglected. "
