Till Lindemann brought his solo tour to The Factory in Deep Ellum last week and delivered an explosive and theatrical experience, much like his reputation from Rammstein. The night opened with performances by Twin Temple and Aesthetic Perfection, setting the dark and provocative tone. Twin Templ’s mix of doo-wop melodies with occult-themed lyrics created a haunting yet catchy prelude to Lindemann’s intense show.
Once on stage, Till Lindemann captivated the crowd with a powerful set, kicking of the “Zunge” and diving into heavy industrial tracks like “Schweiss” and “Allesfresser.” His theatrical style was on full display with songs like “Golden Shower” and “Blut,” which shocked and thrilled the audience. A standout was his rendition of “Praise abort,” showcasing his provocative lyrical style and commanding stage presence. Did I mention he also shot fish into the crowd? Yeah, it was an interesting night to say the least.
The night also featured a surprise cover of “Entre dos Tierras” by Heroes del Silencio, blending unexpected musical choices with his signature industrial metal. The concert wrapped up with “”Home Sweet Home,” leaving the crowd exhilarated and exhausted by the intensity of the performance.
