Rammstein in turmoil in full European tour. The singer and leader of the German metal band, Till Lindemann, has been targeted since June by a judicial inquiry, after the testimony of several young women who accuse him of sexual assault and rape. Despite the outcry and calls for a boycott, Rammstein maintained his dates, including his concert at the Stade de France this Saturday July 22.
Nevertheless, according to The Parisian, “Row Zero”, the area just in front of the stage, has been removed. This is where the 60-year-old singer would spot young women whom he would then bring to after show parties accompanied by alcohol and drugs.
Boycott
“Few artists in the current musical landscape offer a live performance of this magnitude, a masterful scene fed by a profusion of fireworks, massive explosions of smoke, orchestrated by a staging loaded with humor and pathos”, boasts on its site the Stade de France concerning Rammstein. The group, all in excess, is indeed one of the few to be able to fill the enclosure of 70,000 places.

Despite calls for a boycott or the demonstration of 150 people in front of the Bern stadium (Switzerland), where the group performed on June 17, nothing helped. Universal Music no longer promotes the group. On Instagram, the drummer admitted that “things” that he “personally did not find correct” had “happened” around the singer of the German group, specifying however that he did not think “that anything forbidden happened” or that he had not noticed them.
For his part, Till Lindemann, through the voice of his lawyers, totally denies the facts.
