Music Video
The controversy over Mein Teil prompted MTV Germany to restrict the airing of the music video to after 11 PM. The video shows a cross dressed Doom Schneider dressed as Armin Meiwes's mother, Till being fellated by an angel before he eats her wings and kills her; Flake performing ballet in a hallucinatory state; Paul shaking, screaming violently and wandering around the set in a frantic and crazed state; Richard violently fighting with his doppelgänger; Ollie writhing on the floor in painful spasms with his skin covered in white powder; the band fighting in a mudpit; and five of the band members, while behaving like dogs, crawling out of the Deutsche Oper U-Bahn (subway) station while held on leashes carried by Christoph Schneider.

“Where should this music be? I’ th’ air, or th’ earth?
It sounds no more.”
