31 Days Idol Challenge - Oliver Riedel

Day 19 - Showing Back

Since Oliver still plays concerts "oberkörper frei", it is not that difficult to find photos of his back. Oliver has a lean and muscular body, and even though he is now in his 50s, he is in great shape.

While he painted his body dark for the entire 2023 Europe Stadium Tour, if anything, darker complexions can make muscles pop in bright light. My pick for this challenge is a photo from Budapest by Matthias Matthies. The contrast colours in the photo make it really stunning.

Bonus material: 1) Another photo from 2023 Europe Stadium Tour, this time from Brussels taken by Jens Koch. I love when Oliver and Richard find together on stage, and this photo from Mein Teil is such a great example of that. 2-3) Screenshots from the Making of Rosenrot. The band members didn't want to use make-up for the flagellation, instead they drank vodka and went out in the cold and whipped themselves. 4) I love the atmosphere in this photo by Frédéric Batier, from Völkerball, where Oliver takes a moment for himself in Budapest 2005. 5) Oliver getting his in-ears taped to his back, by Jens Koch 2019. 6) Screenshot from one of Jens Koch's videos 2023. 7) Silly little promo video for the Mein Land music video, where we see Oliver and the girls. It does show his back though. 8) Oliver during the shooting of the Mein Land music video, from the photo book by Frédéric Batier. 9) I guess these last two photos are what people expected. First out, Andreas Mühe's photo of Oliver, naked, in Winnipeg 2012... 10) ...and finally, Missy Funnybunny's photo of Oliver, taken in Paris 2012. This is probably the most well-known photo of Oliver's back, and deservedly so. It is really good.

31 Days Idol Challenge - Oliver Riedel

Day 4 - In Sand

It is probably not extremely unpredictable, but how could I not pick young, clean-shaven Oliver in sand, playing a five-string headless bass?

Seemann is one of Rammstein's music videos that many people seem to dislike. I actually enjoy it. It is also interesting that while most of the guys had their hair cut for this, Oliver still has more hair in this music video than in most others.

Bonus material: 1) Oliver, very much in sand, in the Zeit music video. Gif by me. 2) Rammstein from the Mein Land photo book by Frédéric Batier. 3) Oliver and his pink surfboard, by Jens Koch. 4) Walking in sand in Heiligendamm, 1999, Gif by me.

Day 8: Favorite B-Side or Unreleased Track

I'm actually surprised that this song wasn't part of their album. It has a good music video and catchy tunes. I wish that they played it live. Was there footage of them playing Mein Land?? Because it seems that they don't play it often before, even if it's one of their singles.

One specific thing that I love about this music video is the Beach Boys-inspired aesthetic HAHAHAHAHAHA I loved that band so much, and it's ironic how I discovered them in their biopic Love and Mercy because I became a Paul Dano fan that time after watching the film Prisoners.

Hey. Fun fact.

Germany is replaying the beginning of the Third Reich now.

The Too-German-Didn’t-Read is that main guys of the right-extremist party that is currently on a major rise, AfD, met with actual neo-nazis discussing plans to deport millions of people, those being anyone whose families came here after WW2 + anyone helping immigrants and refugees, to a fucking "Model State in North Africa“ specifically conscripted for the sole purpose of keeping them there.

And a good chunk of the other politicians plus the main law council itself that could do anything against it is saying it can’t ban them because the AfD isn’t proven to be acting in incitement enough.

Fun.
