I don't know much about German rock band Rammstein beyond their 1997 hit "Du hast", but their latest box set has caught my interest. It's called Liebe Ist Für Alle Da, which translates to Lube Is For Your Ass. The set comes with a metal flight case, five bonus tracks, handcuffs, lube and… six pink dildos?
The Daily Swarm is claiming that the dildos "reflect the sizes of the six members’ wienerwursts", but we're not sure about the validity of that statement. Though after watching the extremely NSFW video for their lead single "Pussy", it's quite possible that the band took it there.
UPDATE: So send me to a remedial German class! The Daily Swarm must have been joking about the whole "Lube Is For Your Ass" thing. It's amazing how many other blogs (including us) took that seriously…

Watch the video before they ban it guys.
I’m not sure where you heard the Leibe ist für alle da translates as “lube is for your ass.” It means “love is for everyone.” “Lube ist für deinen Arsch” is what your looking for…
oh my, I was not expecting all that. The dildos though, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were exact replicas.
They had another video where they were all naked and there were a bunch of men wrestling and stuff. Here http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x82fp_rammstein-mann-gegen-mann
Wow…to both of those clips, just Wow.
Nice, very nice!
rammstein’s “Pussy”: what is some of the most amazing/terrible lyrics possibly ever in a song.
holy hell wish I was servicing the second one from the right!
lol. Wow is right.
Seconding what Matt said. “Liebe” is “Love.” Who’s your source, Dewitt? Tell them we figured out why they’re not picking up anyone in Berlin.
I’ve seen Rammstein twice here in the States, and both times they were arrested for obscenity. This is actually not new territory for the band. They have always had a history of hypersexualized performances, to the point of camp and irony. They also tend to do both homo and heteroerotic theatrics.
Lube is Gleitmittel in German.
Josh the Daily Swan was the source . I wonder if the box set will be on sale in the U.S perhaps at Target LOL………..
