This 79-minute disc documents Rammstein's live shows from mid-1998. The band's performances include powerful theatrics and pyrotechnics (lead singer Till Lindemann even sets himself on fire), but even without the aid of visuals, this CD is a faithful representation of their explosive energy. Songs "Rammstein" and "Sehnsucht" receive appropriately raw and straightforward readings, while "Bueck Dich" comes gloriously alive with audience interaction and additional electronic rhythms. Also benefiting from the fiery live setting are "Du Hast" and the beautifully mournful "Engel," where the audience enthusiastically joins in on choruses. Aggressive drama is the most obvious feature of this recording, but quieter moments such as "Wilder Wein" provide effective dynamics and pacing. Flake's creative keyboard work, one of Rammstein's most distinguishing features, is generally more prominent in these live versions. The guitar licks of Richard Kruspe and Paul Landers are thick and tight, while drummer Christoph Schneider thrashes away with loose precision. --Mark McCleerey

 Live Aus Berlin November 28, 2009
Bjorn Viberg (European Union)
Live Aus Berlin being Rammstein's live album that was recorded during their 2 night show in Berlin 1998. The sound quality is great and I do not agree that the instruments are muffled as some previous reviewers have written. The booklet is very nice with crisp photographs but they could have included some liner-notes that described the tour and why the picked certain songs and such. Allmusic and Rolling Stone gave the recording 3 respectively 3.5 out of 5. I think it is a little better and give it 4. 4/5.
Its a good CD September 7, 2008

This is a good CD, but...its hard to say...its almost like it needs more guitar power. Rammstein puts on one hell of a show. They always sound great live, especially Till's amazing vocals. But anyways i'll get straight to the best songs: Spiel Mit Mir (sounds cooler when played live) Weißes Fliech (such an amazing song) Bueck Dich (so good when played live) Engel, Du Hast, Rammstein, Seemann, Heirate Mich, and Wilder Wein. Recommended to anybody who enjoyed Sehnsucht!
A strong release. Excellent playing all around. January 18, 2008

Rammstein is the ultimate band to see live with their theatrical, pyromaniacal shows and bizarre antics. Naturally, every Rammstein fan should own the DVD "Live Aus Berlin", but what about the CD version? Do we really need an audio only version, or is it merely redundant?
There aren't any new songs, but this live set could function as a sort of "greatest hits" compilation. The recording quality is excellent - strong presence of sound, great mix, an acceptable amount of crowd noise, but never a distracting amount.
Till's vocals are not as strong as on the studio albums, although part of this could be related to him singing songs engulfed in flames! I think that's the only real weakness. On their studio albums, his voice has this wonderful, menacing quality that kind of disappears on the live recording. It sounds less like he's singing and more like he's barking out lyrics. It's not a huge deal, but it's something to keep in mind.
At 79 minutes, there's plenty of material and Rammstein is able to survey most of their best tracks. I'm disappointed they didn't include "Stripped", as I think they do a great job with it. I believe the DVD has a few additional songs, but this isn't a big deal. I suppose it all boils down to whether you are satisfied to listen through your home theater gear, or if you need to play it elsewhere.
One final issue - we now have two Rammstein live releases: this and Volkerball. Both have strengths and weaknesses. Volkerball is more expensive, but it also gives you a DVD (and a second live CD depending on which version you buy). I think they're pretty comparable. If you're cool buying both, you should do so. If you only want one live Rammstein recording though, I'm a little bit partial to Volkerball, if only because it has songs from all their albums, hence greater variety.
Either way, this is a very strong live album. Overall, I recommend it highly to all Rammstein fans. For those new to Rammstein, I might recommend starting with one of the studio albums such as "Sehnsucht".
