Does anyone have an introduction to Oliver Riedel? (German tank’s bass) Please help me

Introduction to the work In 1993 in East Berlin, Germany, several young people who were tired of the boring life came together, and a band that was not very popular at the time was born. They didn't spend much time creating a unique style. The guitars of RICHARD KRUSPE and PAUL LANDER closely revolved around the rhythmic skeleton constructed by bassist OLIVER RIEDEL and drummer CHRISTOPH SCHNEIDER. This was more or less their own. The music seems a bit rigid. The most special feeling comes from the poetic lyrics of the lead singer-former Olympic swimmer TILL LINDEMANN and the fast bass harmony of keyboardist FLAKE. In 1995, RAMMSTEIN's debut album "HERZELEID" ("Heartache") was released and achieved great success. Its title song "Heartache" of the same name entered the German charts and remained there until the band released its second LP two years later. There are also good responses in countries such as Switzerland and Austria. With this album, RAMMSTEIN began to enter the European pop music scene. At the same time, accusations followed: the band was sharply accused by the German media of being neo-Nazis and fascist wannabes, perhaps due to the atmosphere of the band's live performances. In RAMMSTEIN's own words: "We are horror romantics." Their performances mix many theatrical and magic effects, especially using flames as props. So someone was responsible for their costumes, and the topless behavior during the performance and the background of a huge yellow flower under the firelight were all harbingers of the emergence of a new racism. In addition, some people compared lead singer LINDEMANN's singing to HITLER's speech. However, in fact, RAMMSTEIND's music is nothing more than a chant of lost love, longing for it, and anger at betrayal, and does not involve the slightest bit of speech or political tendency regarding issues left over from history. After the release of RAMMSTEIN's second album "SEHNSUCHT" ("Desire") in August 1997, it quickly reached the top of the German charts, and within a week it successively topped the charts of European countries. "SEHNSUCHT" not only broke through double platinum sales in Germany, but also achieved impressive results in many non-German speaking countries. In 1998, this album was the first to be released in the United States by SLASH, which attracted great attention from American music fans. This album undoubtedly became another milestone in RAMMSTEIN's music career. The band then played a small show in the United States, their first show in the United States. Although there was a language barrier, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the audience at all. This is in line with the old saying: music knows no borders. What's more, there are also dazzling stage performances, which can't help but vaguely recall the scene when glam rock was popular. Not long ago, RAMMSTEIN participated in the 'FAMILY valueS' concert of the band KORN as the 'second protagonist'. The band's performance this time was extremely outstanding, and the audience was all affected by their enthusiastic performance atmosphere. Their momentum was almost overwhelming the host KORN. It seems that no matter what, one thing is beyond doubt: RAMMSTEIN will never change themselves for any reason unless they want to. The flame game will continue, the lyrics will still be in German, and the video will still be on tape...otherwise, they wouldn't be RAMMSTEIN. In the words of the band: “RAMMSTEIN is RAMMSTEIN and we will never change our ways.
