Schwarzes Glas is an unreleased song by Rammstein.
Background
- Schwarzes Glas can be found in the GEMA database, where its length is listed as 4:45 and the line "vor der Mitte tiefer Fall" is mentioned. This recording is yet unknown.
- The demo versions of the song featured on some late demo cassettes fade out during the guitar solo. The ones on 3-Track Demo 1 and 6-Track Demo 2 are complete recordings of a different, earlier version, featuring Richard's vocals during the chorus "Schwarzes Glas" lines.
- A sample from the 5th track on the "Datafile Three" sample library by Zero-G appears in the second chorus of both studio demo versions.
- The guitar riff played during the verses bears strong resemblance to the main riff of Der Meister.
- The main guitar riff of the 1996 live version of the song is very similar to the main riff of Eifersucht.
- According to Christoph Schneider, producer Jacob Hellner didn't like the song because he thought it didn't have a proper chorus.[1]
