The group is from Slovenia, but the name is German. It is the Austrian German name of the Slovenian capital Ljubljana. They play a lot with the socialist realism aesthetics. It was and is a big source of controversy with them. But I read it as just a symbol of dictatorship.

So to me the comparison to Rammstein is really a surface-level one.

I recommend taking the time to read the Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laibach

No album is really the same and they are all commentary on society. If you read the comments on /r/laibach, this album is polarizing even among the fans. And I think it's fantastic.

Thanks for linking the official videos. I actually like the new album even more now on the second listen while watching these. For example, the Allgorhythm video is just viral clips from Instagram and the like, shot vertically. It's all a joke.

So when I think of them, it's like a trip to a museum or a tea ceremony. Something that you do deliberately and reflect on, rather than something you put on while jogging (not that you cannot do that either!).
