By the Numbers
The album that made them an international band without changing anything about how they work: still six writers on every track, still Jacob Hellner in the chair. 'Du hast' did the travelling, and it did it in German, which is the fact the rest of the catalogue rests on.
Sehnsucht is Rammstein's second studio album, released on 22 August 1997 through Motor Music. Eleven tracks including 'Du hast' and 'Engel'. It reached number 1 in Germany and Austria and number 45 in the US, sold roughly 3.2 million copies worldwide, and is the band's only RIAA Platinum album.
