New Allegations Against Till Lindemann After Performance in France
Once again, Till Lindemann is at the center of allegations regarding the alleged recruitment of young women at a festival performance.
At this year's Hellfest Festival in Clisson, France, an incident reportedly occurred according to the investigative portal Mediapart, where an employee of Rammstein singer Till Lindemann allegedly recruited women specifically for an aftershow party.
Women report targeted approach in the VIP area
Several women told Mediapart that they were approached in the VIP area of the festival. The employee allegedly asked if they were interested in coming to the hotel after the show – supposedly to "have a good time and keep Till Lindemann company," according to the statements.
Memories of allegations from 2023
The incident brings back memories of the events of the previous year: in 2023, several – some anonymous – young women made allegations against Lindemann. They reported unpleasant, sometimes disturbing situations in connection with aftershow parties of the Rammstein singer, where sexual acts were said to have occurred.
The Berlin Public Prosecutor's Office, however, discontinued the investigation after review - due to a lack of sufficient suspicion.
Festival Management Defends Till Lindemann's Performance
The management of Hellfest had already dismissed criticism of Till Lindemann's programming in advance. They stated they are not judges, but organizers, and invite artists whom the audience wants to see. Additionally, the festival director emphasized that the safety of all visitors, especially women, is ensured.
New Music Video by Till Lindemann: "And the Angels Sing" Addresses Protests and Social Controversies
On June 11, 2025, Till Lindemann released the music video for his new single "And the Angels Sing." The dark and provocative video, directed by Anna Kott at the SkyLight Studio in Dubai, is a tribute to the recently deceased cult director David Lynch. In addition to surreal images and religious symbolism, the video also addresses protests by women, critically reflecting on current social debates. Lindemann takes on various roles - from the suffering prophet to the fallen angel - continuing his artistic signature that oscillates between despair, sacrality, and raw realism.
