The Rammstein case is gaining momentum. While several press investigations expose the system of sexual predation created by singer Till Lindemann’s concert entourage, Germany’s Minister for Family Affairs, environmentalist Lisa Paul, has decided to step up.
“In particular, young people should be better protected from attacks“, she told AFP. We have to discuss”fast and specific“protective measures,” she adds, “given thata serious debate about the responsibility of artists and organizers to their fans would be helpful.“.
The first measures will take effect this Wednesday.
In its investigation published on Sunday, the weekly Die Welt gives the floor to several young women who claim they were approached by Till Lindemann’s assistant after they were photographed and filmed in the front row at the band’s concerts. They say they were then introduced to the singer, where he forced them to drink and possibly drug them before attempting to have sex with them.
The allegations against the 60-year-old frontman began in late May, when Irish fan Shelby Lynn took to social media to denounce such an attack at a concert in Vilnius a few days earlier. At the time, the group denied the facts, considering it impossible for them to occur in their midst.

But after the publication of two investigations in the German press over the weekend, the musicians came out with a more subtle statement. “It is important to us that you feel comfortable and safe at our shows – in front of and behind the stage.“, can be read in this message addressed to fans. To date, there have been no complaints about the singer.
Heavyweights of the metal scene, Rammstein are in the middle of a world tour that is scheduled to stop for four nights at the Olympiastadion in Munich from Wednesday. This Tuesday, a spokesperson for the enclosure said that the area in front of the stage where Til Lindemann could have spotted the young women would be removed. Will it be the same in other European countries? In particular, the group should appear at the Stade de France on July 22.
