The second single from Rammsteinβs upcoming new album, Zeit, has just been published, and itβs called βZick Zack.β
The song follows up on βZeit,β the albumβs title track, which was released in March after the band teased news about the follow-up to 2019βs unnamed effort. That was Rammsteinβs first new album in a decade, and thankfully, fans havenβt had to wait nearly as long for new material from the industrial legends.
While βZeitβ explored some complex subjects, βZick Zack,β which appears sixth on the new albumβs track listing, does not. This song explores cosmetic surgery and is a return to Rammsteinβs cheekier side (read the English translation of the lyrics here).

Rammstein stated after the publication of their untitled album in 2019 that it might be their last, but owing to unexpected downtime due to the pandemic, the bandβs creativity surged and they moved to France to start working on new songs. Flake Lorenz, the keyboardist, remarked earlier this year, βWe recorded a record that we hadnβt intended on.β
Rammstein will finally begin its long-awaited and twice-postponed North American stadium tour this summer, which will run from August 21 to October 4. To check if the run is coming to a city near you, go here.
