Tägtgren defines it as "a baby between Rammstein and PAIN – at least it's a mix of Rammstein vocals and PAIN music."[2]

History

Lindemann and Tägtgren met around the year 2000 in a rock pub in Stockholm, when members of Clawfinger introduced them to each other.[3] In 2013, when Rammstein was headlining a festival in Sweden, the German singer invited his Swedish bandmate to it. There, he told Tägtgren he would take two years off and wanted to write some music with him.[4][3][5] They originally planned to do only one or two songs, but Tägtgren felt they were "too good" and wanted to write more.[4]

The name of the band "was the only thing we could come up with".[3] All names considered by the band were already taken by other groups, so they eventually accepted a suggestion by somebody else and simply called it "Lindemann", though Tägtgren was initially unhappy with it.[3]

On May 28, 2015 the band released its debut single "Praise Abort". A studio album titled Skills in Pills was released on June 19, 2015. When asked about possible future live performances, Tägtgren said it will depend on fan response to the project.[4][3]
