Rammstein Blasts Media Lies
German rockers Rammstein have warned the press to stop letting their "greed for news" stand in the way of accurate reporting after falling victim to media lies earlier this week. In a statement reportedly issued by the band's management company on Monday, it was announced front man Till Lindemann had left the band and former KMFDM star En Esch was to take his place.
The band swiftly assured fans the press release was an elaborate hoax, and Esch later confirmed this too. However Rammstein aren't letting the matter rest. A statement on the group's official website blasts the press for not considering the repercussions of fake news, branding reporters too "greedy".
"Neither Till Lindemann nor another band member plans to leave Rammstein. The band is currently working on the next album and is in an excellent mood. As the greed for news is the actual doping in cycling, this 'news' is only serving those who spread the same. Though the world knows now that EnEsch has moved to Berlin, even the poor EnEsch was shocked by the outlook to have to step into Till Lindemanns footsteps. I hope he and the fans of the band will recover soon from this false report."
