Rammstein - Mutter (Full album 2001)

“Mutter” (German for "mother") is the third album by German Neue Deutsche Härte band Rammstein. It was released on 2 April 2001 through Motor and Universal Music. The album's cover image is a photograph of a dead fetus, which was taken by Daniel & Geo Fuchs. The album has yielded six singles which, to date, are the most released from any Rammstein album.
From September to December 1999, the band rented the house Weimar in Heiligendamm on the Baltic Sea for pre-production. The sound recordings took place in May and June 2000 at Studio Miraval in southern France. Already over Christmas 2000, Rammstein released the song “Links 2 3 4” on their website for download. In January 2001 the video was released, in February the single “Sonne”.

“Mutter”(mama) este al treilea album al trupei germane de metal industrial Rammstein. A fost lansat la 2 aprilie prin Motor si Universal Music. Coperta albumului prezinta imagina unui fetus mort, luata de catre Daniel si Geo Fuchs. Albumul a dat nastere la 6 single-uri, care la acea data, erau cele mai multe extrase de pe un album Rammstein.
Din septembrie pana in decembrie 1999 trupa a inchiriat casa Weimar din Heiligendamm de la Marea Baltica, unde s-a facut pre-productia.
