'N/A'


Reise Reise, Rammstein's fourth studio album was released on 27 September 2004 in Germany, and shortly after in the rest of Europe. It was released in North America on 16 November of the same year. It has been in the Top 10 in several European charts and a number 1 hit in Germany.


As used in Reise, Reise aufstehen! Kommt hoch nach alter Seemannsart, the album name is an old sailor's expression to wake or rise other sailors. Hence the translation of the title would be Arise, Arise. (We can also see how this expression is used in the self-titled song).


The album ranked at #67 for Top 100 Albums of 2004 by Rate Your Music.

Album Art

The case cover shows a damaged airplane blackbox (which are painted orange to enable quick location among crash debris) depicted on the front and back covers. Its caption ("Flugrekorder//nicht öffnen") means "Flight recorder//do not open". The inner part of the Digipak edition case shows a picture of the 6 members in suits wielding suitcases and weapons leaving from a crashed airplane.


The CD itself has a silver matte/reflective relief surface which depicts a radar.


All versions include a booklet with the lyrics.



The whole cover art is an allusion to the song Dalai Lama, which deals with an airplane accident.


Track listing

  1. "Reise, reise" ("Arise, arise")
  2. "Mein Teil" ("My part/penis")
  3. "Dalai Lama" ("Dalai Lama")
  4. "Keine Lust" ("Don't feel like it")
  5. "Los" ("Less/Go!")
  6. "Amerika" ("America")

  8. "Morgenstern" ("Morning star")
  9. "Stein um Stein" ("Stone by stone")

Easter egg: If the CD is rewound back 26 seconds into negative time at the beginning (right before 'Reise, Reise') and then played, a a fragment of the flight recorder from the Japan Airlines Flight 123 crash can be heard.


On the American release, it is at the beginning of "Reise, Reise" and not hidden.
