Interview Christoph Schneider & Thomas Lang - Drumtrainer Online
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2018
- Some time ago we had the great Thomas Lang in from Los Angeles visiting Drumtrainer online. Three days of filming, from morning to night at different locations in Berlin. We shot two days at the Backline Berlin (BLB) workshop of Rossi Rossberg - and since Rossi was the chief Backliner of Rammstein drummer Christoph Schneider for many years, his workshop is located at the Rammstein warehouse in the northeast of Berlin. And since we were there anyway and Christoph and Thomas have been friends for many years, it was just natural to bring the drummer of the currently most famous German band for an interview in front of the camera. Interviews with Christoph are very rare and on top of that Thomas Lang is asking the questions!? ... what can we say: We are very proud of this Interview. An interesting and relaxed conversation among friends ... Thanks to Christoph & Thomas! Enjoy...Check out: drumtrainer.online
//Im letzten Jahr hatten wir den großartigen Thomas Lang aus Los Angeles zu Besuch bei Drumtrainer Online. Drei Tage filmen, von morgens bis abends an verschiedenen Orten in Berlin. Zwei Tage haben wir im BackLine Berlin (BLB) Lager von Rossi Roßberg gedreht - und da Rossi jahrelang der Chef-Backliner von Rammstein-Drummer Christoph Schneider war, ist eben dieses Lager in der Rammstein Lagerhalle im Nordosten von Berlin untergekommen. Und wenn wir schon mal in den heiligen Hallen drehen und darüber hinaus Christoph und Thomas seit Jahren befreundet sind, lag es natürlich nahe, den Drummer der derzeit berühmtesten Deutschen Band für ein Interview vor die Kamera zu holen. Interviews mit Christian gibt es so gut wie nie und dann stellt auch noch einer der berühmtesten Drummer der Welt die Fragen!? …was soll man sagen: wir sind sehr stolz auf dieses Gespräch. Herausgekommen ist ein interessantes und entspanntes Gespräch unter Freunden. Check out: drumtrainer.online
Vielen Dank Thomas & Christian! Viel Spaß ...
I don't think Christoph gives himself enough credit, he's a fantastic drummer
Yeah he is. I love his drumming. He can get you to dance. Especially those first two Rammstein albums. He turned me onto Meinl cymbals😊
@@marcuschandler426 he mentioned Vinny in this
I think he does but not trying to brag to much, I think he just comes across as a very humble and down to earth guy, like the best people in the music industry :)
He never has tbh. Everyone in the band except for RZK are pretty humble and seem to have imposter syndrome.
Brilliant drummer and performer and very humble
The contrast with his soft spoken speaking and hard-hitting drumming is hilarious.
Fr
I’ve found that’s what a lot of metal drummers are like haha 😂
What a smart and humble guy. His English is actually pretty good and a cute accent! It was interesting to hear about his experience as a drummer! Love Christoph Schneider!
I would just like to say thank you so much to Schneider's parents for creating this man!
The thing that makes Schneider so damn excellent is that he doesn’t play very difficult or technical stuff but i don’t know of any drummer that can play as heavy as he does. He makes simple stuff sound so damn perfect and makes it fit into the music and complinent it. I’m a MASSIVE fan of Lang but Doom is just My absolute hero of all drummers.
Jonka Olofsson Over the time when listening and relistening to everything Rammstein has released I find some little things here and there that make me smile or headbang or whatever. He‘s no Mike Portnoy but he is damn good and nice to listen to, as you say. Simple yet colourful and heavy or soft when needed. Also one of my favorite drummers.
One of the few metal drummers I could play along with when learning how to play, I am forever grateful for that.
So long as you know how to lay the beat down and on tempo that's all that matters. That's whats great about Schneider!
Schneider is so charming 🖤
What an attractive guy Christoph is.
At 53 years old, he's still able to keep going. That's amazing for a drummer of his style.
53 really isn't all that "old" though. You can still have great stamina and showmanship at that age.
He is an actual cinnamon roll
Christoph, so ein feiner Mensch, und ein unfassbar guter Drummer. Er sollte mehr Beachtung finden.
Rammstein does a great job getting breathing room into their songs, and the drums are part of that. Players don't play over each other.
He's so lovely. In fairness all of his band mates are lovely too. They have this huge and scarey but awesome sound; some really dark videos; a stage presence like no other band, and yet they are all incredibly intelligent, humorous, lovely chaps. Christoph is a phenomenal metal drummer. They've got their formula and their sound, which wouldn't be half as good without Christoph 😊
I couldn't agree more, well said

Christoph is always the nicest most real guy and so humble. You would never realize what a great killer drummer he is by his own description? He is a monster drummer in a monster Band! I Love Rammstein! And after all these years I am always so impressed by how he doesn't need to be the image that his profession almost requires? He is just the most real kind guy. I will bet he is a great Dad to his children!
An english interview with Schneider!! That's rare but it was very nice to watch and hear about Christophs drummer heroes.
It's cool to see how the members all learned English so well. It's nice to understand their exact words coming out.
Most can speak more than 2 languages. Till fluently speaks German, Russian, French, English, Spanish, among others!
@@davidvilchez2209 Till do not speak spanish, just some basic words with very bad pronunciation..
@@davidvilchez2209 Till Lindemann does speak English and speaks it very well, he does speak Russian but only a native speaker can give a proper answer on how well he speaks it.
I think he does speak French but never heard him speak it in an interview.
@@davidvilchez2209 he doesn t speak french
@@no-ts4mo at least a bit, also did guest vocals on a song by French singer Zaz
Christoph is such a sweet human and i love his play style and rammstein
Schneider is an absolute cutie
8:24 “a sun burn... ja” bruh the pronunciations tho I love it 😂
Christoph is the only drummer I've ever cared about. 🤣🖤 So handsome and sweet.
Thomas: "Let's talk about fire on stages"
Christoph: *makes fire sound effects* "fire"
LOL
Crazy how soft spoken he is.
Great interview :)
I've been to Germany quite a few times and people are always soft spoken, not brash and loud like Americans LOL
@@k.c.lejeune6613 yeah, us Americans can be pretty loud and obnoxious sometimes lol
@@Stingsz123 Sometimes? Always!
@@KoRnBaKo This is 3 years old but you’re goofy
@@spikejonzelover420 Me goofy? Then you're a fruitcake.
I love Christoph
Coincidence with the surname or little psycho tendencies? 😉
TajnyTaktyk oh that's because we are family 😂 i wish hahah
christoph looks like a killer in all of their videos specially Ich Will. but during interviews he is a very polite and homeboy looking guy :)
A so soft astmosphere in this interview...it relaxes me. He's deutsch, yes 😂
Do you like german accent?
Lol Rofl ‡ Yes, I really like it
@@simoneliberatore6089 I hate it because Im from Germany and my accent fucks me up. Hard. But with Schneiders voice it's ok. Love him speaking german. I love british accent.
@@lolrofl...
Den deutschen Akzent im Englisch finde ich auch nich so prall.
Meinst du das Alltags-Englisch?
Das ist auch absolut mein Fall. ;)
Ikr! I find especially Schneider's voice very calming here.
christoph is my new favorite drummer. super nice and humble guy. super cool dude who can really play.
word.
I think Christoph is easily one of my favourite hard rock drummers of all time and I think it’s just because the way plays is simple & the energy how he feels is really powerful.
Christoph is so freakin adorable here! I just want to hold his face in my hands 😆😆😆❤❤❤
I love Christophs drumming. He is a very precise drumming style🥁. He is like a drill Sargent. Love his sweet and shy personality .❤
Such a beautiful human and you hear his personality really come through on the kit!
He is sooo sweet and humble
So charming, Christoph. ^-^ He seems very joyful and happy to just talk about things.
Christoph and Thomas look pretty similar in this video. Though Christoph looks a lot like Flake too with his glasses haha :D this is getting out of hand
Schneider has had many looks since they first started the band, but I think this look is my favourite by far 😆 yes, he looks a quite older, but he really suits this. (More than the long hair stage imo lol)
He looks so handsome like this!!! I like the older gentleman look on him so much
long hair don't fit him I like the hairstyle on the live on Paris
Christoph is a perfectionist and it reflects in his drumming skills!
My favourite drummer of all time! Thank you Christoph!
These 2 right here are my drum heroes. If only Ray Luzier had been there as well. Christoph and Thomas are so creative.
Such a stunning man! Total super star
Two german speaking drummers interviewing themselves in English lol
lang is austrian actually
@@lincthomas7178
Austria is a part of germany, like Bavaria, Prussia, Saxony etc...
Die Ostmark gehört zu Deutschland, wie Bayern, Sachsen, Hessen, Preussen, Sudeten etc. es auch tun.
@@tristantheuerkorn777 not really, there are notable differences, they make speak german, but an Austrian wouldn't say they are german and visa versa, like americans and Canadians, similar but different
@@lincthomas7178
Austria is a part of Germany wether the austrians deny it or not.
Vienna has been several centuries the capital of Germany when austria was the mightiest state in that specific time in it's history.
The Habsburger is a german sex like the Ottonen, the Stauffer, Hohenzollern, Askanier, Oranier, Sachsen, Wittelsbacher etc. etc.... (Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha = now the Windsors!).
So nevertheless austria is german, period.
You should study the history of our country more my friend.
p.s.
You cannot seriously compare Kanada and USA with the german states.
@@tristantheuerkorn777 Oh, once one homeless and unemployed painter Adolf thought the same....even more - the rest of Europe has to be a part of Germany....oh yes!))
Christoph is the man who got me into drums, and i am proud of that \m/
Schneider always had a great drum sound going it shows in the albums reise reise, rosenrot, and liebe ist fur alle da, his work on waidmanns heil shows his skill with the double kicks and snare rolls he's surely up their with Lars in the sense that he instinctively knows what fits best for the song to capture the vibe.
Niko Bellic That‘s an insult. Don‘t compare him to Lars, Schneider is way better. Listening to Metallica is a mixture of „that thing was nice“ and „what the shit are you doing“ 😂 But i agree on the rest. Herzeleid is underrated too.
@@OfficialArthusamakh Lars is past his Prime where Schneider seems to be getting better behind the kit with age, yes half of herzelied album the drums were fast paced and aggressive I heard the drum kit was electronic to.
He's better than lars in St.anger
Schneider is the King of staying in the pocket. He's also the king of midi and click tracks. The entire rammstein live performance grounds on his drumming. The Pyro, the light show, everything. If he messes up it's over. Lars on the other hand is all over the place, no structure, just erratic playing and dumb fills.
I have been listening to Rammstein since their first album and they're my favourite band of all time. I just love it about them that they're killers on the stage but off the stage each member is so humble and so chill.
Two completely different types of drummers style-wise here. Lang is amazing with footwork, polyrhythms and limb independence. A great showman and top notch progressive drummer while Christoph is basically the engine of Rammstein. Nothing fancy,,, only occasionally taking opportunities to show off. I’m sure he’s easy to lock into allowing the rest band to do their thing and put on their amazing stage show. Rammstein’s identity stems from each individual identity that make up the sum of their parts. Great interview.
He is so adorable 🥰
That adorable accent!
Both guys are amazing drummers, huge inspiration 👍
Great interview! Christoph is one of my favourite drummers and what a nice bloke too.
Adorable 😱
Christoph is so cute and shy🤗
Two of my all-time favourite drummers.
Christoph Schneider doesn't play so "confused" then many American Drummers ! He seem's to be also a Humble Normal Guy .. not "Drug Overloaded" or "Manic" as some US Drummer & other Musicans ! & "By the Way" he already reached easily their "Level" !! I like him ! 👍👍👍
all members of rammstein are very humble and polite during interviews. that it feels weird seeing them not the guys we expect from their videos hehehe.. I guess all Germanic people are like that.
I believe Christoph is a very clever and sensible drummer: he does have a wide mindset in matter of studio and stage sound, that it s not so easy to combine. Honestly I think he would be a great drummer for Depeche Mode shows.
yeah
Just imagine him doing drums for Songs of Faith and Devotion both album and live. Alan is a pretty good at it but hands down Doom's kiks would've probably skyrocket DM's popularity like its nothing
The fire ist the seventh band member.
Christoph is such a soft-spoken guy! Cool interview.
What a true guy!! So modest and him being authentic!! Chris 👍👍👍
Chad Smith is one of his heroes. That really got me. So nice. Nice nice nice. Made my day.
He's so cute! :) Was a pleasure to finally listen to something I understand (in English).
Oh what a great interview! I'm a big fan of Schneider
He's probably one of my favorite drummers from Germany I have 2 DVDs of Rammstein live in 2 different places I also love how he gets the crowds hyped up when using his hands
Very interesting and rare interview..!
oh, finally Christoph looks a bit like he is affected by the age, still hot though))))
p.s. like his hair a lot now!!!! amazing guy, so delicate and polite)))
Long hair doesn't fit him dunno why he had for so long
Other than the little bit of gray in his hair he really doesn’t look like he aged much
He had the best look in 2010
never mind the hair I'd pay good money to get my hands on those thighs 🤣🤣😍
he mentioned vinny...awesome!
Omg he sounds sooooooo cute in English
Such a nice guy, and a hilarious exit at 9:30
Christoph, though not most technical drummer out there, has a soul.
CS seems like a pretty cool guy, sounds great on the drums too
did not expect his hero to be Vince Paul, man that hits me
Whats up with german water they all still look like they are in their early 40s
@C. Doom Schneider they're in their 50s
@C. Doom Schneider everyone but Oliver is in their 50s. Oli is almost 50, Till is almost 60.
C. Doom Schneider 🤦🏻
Oli is the youngest member of Rammstein and I think he’s 48
Rock n' roll is the fountain of youth!
I'm in my 50's, look like 30's (people tell me), and I'm still banging my head.
Love his drumming, should really showing more. He should more parvlent in the videos. Keep doing more
Ich Liebe Christoph Schneider
Both amazing drummers
Крис такой милый , очень красивый и добрый человек, люблю 🌻♥️
Amazing drummer, very talented
Great to here these guys talk about Ian Paice. 🥁
Brow they need to make a fire proof Drum set for Christoph S
my two heros
Just Incredible 🤘🤘🔥🔥
What a fantastic drummer Christoph is .. you don't have to base yourself on others .. you are brilliant as it is .pssst. And my favourite Rammstein member of course.🤪
Ha, know the feeling of playing trumpet and wanting to play drums, except for me it was band in high school.
Schneider is a big softie
It's awesome to hear Shneider speaking english!
I JUST READ THAT HE HATES TALKING ENGLISH BC HE THINKS HES BAD AT IT BUT BITCH NO U AINT U CUTEEE
Schneider is the epitome of steady Beat.
Sweet Christopher!❤️
He fucking awesome dude
A living legend!
Thank God he mentioned John Bonham....finally....🤣🤣...one of the best of all times, if not the best...May he rest in peace...other than that, Schneider is a fantastic drummer...and his drum setup is simple a beauty...and Rammstein live is just a must..have "had" Tickets for 07.06. 2020...corona fucked it up...but still valid for 2021...looking forward to "Corona-free" 2021"..and a great Rammstein concert in Zürich....Stay healthy all of you and take care....
Schneider is the Charlie Watts of metal drumming.
So true
What a legend! And I’ve never heard him speak English! Damn he speaks well! 🤘
Lang is a master on the drums.
Thomas thinks in English and speaks in English. Christolph thinks in German and then translates to English. Both perfectly understood. Both best at what "they" do.
I would love to hear them speak in German.
Schneider is so damn adorable. Good Lord
Christoph is my favourite person in Rammstein , he is so cool
Super cool dudes.
Yeah, I like Christoph, his English is so good like mine.
Christoph plays to the song like Larry Mullen, Jr. If Phil Rudd is a badass, and he is, then so is Christoph and Larry.
Man, you took the words right out of my mouth.. Larry Mullen & Phil Rudd are two of the most underated drummers in the business.. and both are sooooooo great! So is Christoph!
Christophe looks like your geography teacher in highschool hahaha it's funny how his Rammstein character changes all that
I want to see him in a drumeo session :)
That would be awesome!!
Schneider!❤️
I love the fact that these guys would have a much easier time conducting this conversation in German but have to talk in English for the camera lol
Would have been nice, if they had done a little "drum battle" for us :)
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
