According to a pre-order made available today by Amazon-Germany, the next emigrate album will be titled “Silent So Long” with a release date set to October 17, 2014.

Since there is still no oficial announcement from Emigrate’s oficial website, this title and release date cannot be taken for granted just yet.

The song will be titled Ich weiß alles (I know everything) and will probably be one of the songs from Seelenbahnen that Kaiser will debut in the commemorative concert of May 3rd 2014, at the O2 World Arena in Berlin.

Rammstein Merchandising oHG has requested the name “VXDKA FEUER WASSER” to be registered as a trademark. The registration request was submitted on 12.DEC.2013 and has been approved and registered on 11.APR.2014.

Could this be a Vodka named FEUER WASSER (which is the title of a song from the Rosenrot album)? Will this be available at the RammsteinShop exclusively, or is it part of some new major release? Let us know what you think in the comments.

The premiere of Wacken 3D – Louder than hell will be on July 24th, in Germany. Directed by Norbert Heitker and produced by Tomas Erhart, this movie was filmed during last year’s festival, where Rammstein headlined on 1st August for approximately 75.000 people.

Never before Rammstein’s music has been used on such a scale for a dance project, the ballet includes songs like “Mein Herz brennt”, “Engel” and “Ohne Dich”, hits from Metallica, AC / DC, Joe Cocker and Frankie Goes to Hollywood are also included.

The ballet had a huge demand, tickets for the three scheduled events were sold out within a few days, then a fourth performance was added. Only standing tickets are available at the box office.

Some hours ago, the following tweet was published on Jared Leto’s Official Twitter feed (which was already deleted):

According to an undisclosed source known to Affenknecht, Jared and Rammstein are going to colaborate on a new song, which will be recorded in late summer in a studio in Los Angeles. It should be used as a promo single for the upcoming DVD.

Jared and Till met in Berlin in February, when Till attended the 30 Seconds to Mars concert at O2 World Arena. Also according to our source, this was the event that spawned such collaboration.

UPDATE (2/4/2014): There is no colaboration with Jared Leto. This post was part of an international prank on April fools, in which many fansites participated. The tweet included in this article is fake
