  • this is the begging of industrial music!

  • Totally agree.

  • I hear people complaining about his percussionist skills and I really wonder!

    I have never seen anyone do it better... Let alone, I have never seen anyone do it at all!

    I am impressed by this guy's artistry

  • I like his Siegfried. He's filled with youthful energy, and he can remain sympathetic even in Götter. And it's so good to see a Siegfreid who doesn't look like a sumo fighter.

  • Together with windgassen Siegfried Jerusalem is probably the best Siegfried ive heard

  • BRAVO!!!!!

  • the conclusion of this magnificent scene...Ilike very much Jerusalem here...

  • @CONTESTAR Exactly! Most classical and highly renowned recordings of this opera have a guy striking the anvil way out of time and sometimes forgetting to strike for long stretches of time.

  • Am I the only one thinking it's funny the guy's name really is Siegfried?

  • Majestic and the staging, is what is should have been

  • @croscream It is hard and mechanistic; a driving beat that is rhythmic and driving as is industrial music. The raw aggression in Siegfried as he forges the ultimate weapon to crush his foes. The erratic strings drive a pounding madness to the cold clanging of unfeeling steel thus it is industrious in an old connotation.KMFDM borrow from erratic classical music or neo-classical conductors mostly the Russian set though. I don't know does that make any sense to you ?

  • @CONTESTAR Yes you are absolutely right!

  • Pure metal!!!

  • Increible mr. Jerusalem!!!
