Rammstein, Made in Germany in Barcelona

Luz Obscura Barcelonian, Only-Be, Things to do in Barcelona

Rammstein is a German band that has conquered the world of Industrial Metal music and never fail to seduce their audience with their amazing productions and of course, their powerful music, which is known all over the world. So much so, that since 2011 they have been on an impressive world tour, while performing the huge amount of hits they have played during their successful career.

In 1997 their second album Sehnsucht was released, while reaching worldwide fame. This is the album... read more
