Rammstein’s Till Lindemann launches 2 porn movies – ‘Platz Eins’ & ‘Till the End’
Rammstein's Till Lindemann launches 2 porn movies, the first one - 'Platz Eins' - is available now - have a look!
“Platz Eins” and “Till the End”, the newest videos from Rammstein’s frontman Till Lindemann (also starring collaborator Peter Tagtgren) turn out to be porno movies. Not really a surprise for most of course. There’s a censored version and an uncensored version of each video . You can access both here as a pay-per-view.
The music video for “Platz Eins,” from Lindemann’s 2019 album “F & M”, was released on February 4, 2020. It features graphic sexual content, including scenes of full-frontal penetration and an orgy, with Lindemann and Tägtgren appearing in the video. The uncensored version is hosted on the German adult site Visit-X, while a censored version is available on platforms like YouTube with explicit content obscured.
The video, directed by Zoran Bihać, incorporates surreal elements like women wearing death masks of Lindemann, blending decadence with horror. It sparked debate over whether Lindemann participated in the explicit scenes or if editing techniques, such as prosthetics or body doubles, were used, as was done in Rammstein’s earlier “Pussy” video. Some fans speculated about clever editing, while others believed the scenes were real.
The second video, “Till the End,” premiered on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2020, also on Visit-X. It features even more explicit content, including scenes of Lindemann engaging in oral sex and intercourse, with some sequences perceived as amateurish and lacking the artistic flair of earlier works like “Knebel”. The video includes controversial elements, such as a scene with a book (“In Stillen Nächten”, Lindemann’s poetry collection) pierced by a dildo, used in sexual acts. This specific element caused publisher Kiepenheuer & Witsch ending their relationship with Lindemann in June 2023, citing a “gross breach of trust” due to the depiction of sexual violence.
The videos come 11 year after the Rammstein video for “Pussy”, the Lindemann videos for “Fish On” and “Kneel”, and of course the famous dildo boxset… which got us a ban from Google’s advertising program.
The videos were part of Lindemann’s broader exploration of sexual themes, a hallmark of both Rammstein and his solo work. However, they intensified scrutiny on Lindemann, especially following allegations of misconduct in 2023, including claims of spiked drinks at after-show parties. These allegations, though later dropped by German authorities, fueled criticism of the videos as glorifying sexual violence.
The controversy surrounding these videos, combined with the 2023 allegations, led to a temporary halt in new videos.

Here’s the censored version of “Platz Eins”.

About Rammstein
Rammstein formed in Berlin, Germany, in 1994. Guitarist Richard Kruspe, who had fled East Germany for West Berlin in 1989 and later returned to form a project with bassist Oliver Riedel and drummer Christoph Schneider, recruited singer Till Lindemann after hearing him sing. The four-piece won a Berlin battle-of-the-bands contest in 1994, with the prize of a week of professional studio time; guitarist Paul Landers and keyboardist Christian “Flake” Lorenz completed the six-member lineup shortly after. The band’s name derives from “Rammstein-Flugschau,” a reference to the 1988 Ramstein air show disaster, with an extra letter “m” added to the spelling.
The band signed to Motor Music after the 1994 contest and released its debut album, “Herzeleid,” in September 1995. “Sehnsucht” followed in August 1997 and debuted at number one in Germany. From “Mutter” (April 2001) onward, Rammstein has recorded for Universal Music. Subsequent studio albums include “Reise, Reise” (2004), “Rosenrot” (2005), “Liebe ist für alle da” (2009), an untitled seventh album (May 2019) that reached number one in 14 countries, and “Zeit” (April 2022). The band’s lineup – Lindemann, Kruspe, Landers, Riedel, Schneider and Lorenz – has remained unchanged since 1994.
Richard Kruspe has fronted the side project Emigrate since 2007, and Till Lindemann has recorded as Lindemann, with Peter Tägtgren, since 2015. Rammstein won the Revolver Golden God Award for Best Live Band in 2011, its first US award, and has received two Grammy nominations for Best Metal Performance, for “Du hast” (1999) and “Mein Teil” (2006). Lindemann has recorded outside Rammstein as well, releasing music with Peter Tägtgren under the name Lindemann since 2015.
