I saw them 3 times. Once was nice (just after Mutter came out). Second time was exactly the same and was a little boring. Also on the Mutter tour (was on Werchter festival). Third time was after that last album, also on Werchter, they were the headliners after Nine Inch Nails. It was utterly boring and a disgrace NIN had to play before that.

Saw them on the Mutter tour in a very small club. I wasn't really into them, but I went to see the opening act Godhead, who are really big fans. Stuck around and watched their show and it was incredible. I've never seen such insane pyro in such a tiny place. Apparently pretty early on the amount of voltage it took to run this stuff blew the power in the club, thus cutting the opening bands' time slots down. It also happened to be late July and with no air conditioning that place got hotter than hell. I was having one of the worst weeks of my life that week so the fact that I still thought they rocked it says a lot for them.

Pretty good band if it wasn't for that last album. Lyrics have become too clichee and the music didn't get new. They tried to live off of their reputation a little too much. Saw them live two or three times, once just right after Reise, Reise came out so the stage was a huge ship. That was pretty cool.
