Rammstein - Time

Rammstein’s video for “Zeit,” the title track for their upcoming album, is the typically surrealistic and sensational kind of clip people expect from the German industro-metal group. There are shots of people drowning, scary wraith-like figures menacing kids in a fight, and the band members delivering babies as the sands of time surround them — all in reverse. It’s a visual feast, courtesy of director Robert Gwisdek, for an epic ballad in the group’s signature style, as frontman Till Lindemann sings in German about wishing time to stand still.

Memo

Guille, a young Venezuelan immigrant, is a bartender in Berlin. On a lonely night at the bar, he is surprised by the sudden appearance of his brother Memo, whom he hasn’t talked to in a long time. Over the course of a surreal night out, past grievances of the two estranged brothers will come to the fore as they make sense of a mysterious message from back home.
