Rammstein Confirm Studio Return: "It’s Great To Be Back…"
Having cancelled all touring plans this year, Rammstein have returned to the studio to work on new music.
Exciting news! After fansite Rammstein World announced that Rammstein had returned to the studio last month, the band themselves have confirmed that they are indeed back making music together again.
In a photo taken by drummer Christoph Schneider from inside the studio, members of the band look to be very hard at work indeed. The accompanying caption simply reads: “Sadly no tour this year – but it’s great to be back in the studio!”
As reported by Rammstein World, the aforementioned studio is La Fabrique in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France – where their 4K-rated Untitled record was also committed to tape.

Previously, Christoph hinted that Rammstein have “so many ideas lying around, so many unfinished songs” – so presumably they're dusting them off and seeing what they can create with those at the moment. Or have they been inspired since then, and are working on fresh music from scratch?
“We met and we’re working on new songs,” he said a couple of months ago. “We want to work on songs, but whether it’s going to be a new record, nobody knows.”
