English best-of-album "Truth Or Dareďż˝ is coming out at the end of February!
To all our fans around the world, we wish you a happy and healthy year 2010! You can imagine that we´ve certainly not been deedless for the last couple of months, playing pocket pool on the Maldives... Instead we´ve re-recorded 16 killer songs in English for more international success. Our singing partners were kind enough to visit us once again in our studio and record the vocals in english. We're looking forward to present you with these 16 songs at the end of February, as the intense work with a befriended native speaker really was worth it. On the one hand, we wanted to stick to the original themes of the songs, without any compromisses regarding pronounciation and metrics; on the other hand, the english version should sound homogen and natural. And we think we managed this balancing act pretty well. We naturally hope that our foreign fanbase will increase after that release and we expect to be able to perform even more often abroad. And this is the tracklist: READY OR NOT (I'M COMING) BURNING DESIRE SONG OF DEATH LABYRINTH SANDMAN THE FINAL MATCH GOD IS A POPSTAR WAKE UP LAND AHEAD SEX IS NOT ENOUGH CRUCIFIED THE POWER OF LOVE TRUE BEAUTY IS SO PAINFUL THE FIRST TIME ALWAYS HURTS DREAM HERE (WITH ME) ON COURSE Beyond that we have already thousands of new ideas for our eleventh studio album that we hope to be able to release by the end of this year. The album will naturally be followed by a headliner tour across Germany and Europe. Until then we will perform on various festivals all over Europe in summer, and this week we're shooting the video of our version of „Ernten Was Wir Säen", a successful hit of "Die Fantastischen Vier". We´re looking forward to rock 2010 with you!!!

March brings a lot of new...
Indeed. In this month will happen a lot...
First of all there is of course the re-issue of "Monster", which will be in the shops from Friday 6th March on, this time with the actual and only after finishing of the original album recorded single "Sandmann" on board. „Labyrinth in square" - new level in the OOMPH! game
You read it well, from today on we present a new level in our game! And you thought the price-dumping in December would have been the end of the Labyrinth game? Then you thought wrong, because we topped it now again with the „Labyrinth in the Labyrinth", which you will find out with one click!
This can not happen without prizes, for everyone who can solve the new puzzle we raffle "Sandmann" singles, signed cards, limited „Monster" boxes with T-shirt (which we especially kept for this moment) and as main-price a real hit: a signed and 100% real gitarbox from OOMPH! This darling has attended Dero, Flux and Crap on endless shows and now it should be given into lovely hands.
A real unique prize and perhaps the coronation of every OOMPH! collection. So hold log-in data ready and let's go into the Labyrinth!

OOMPH! - The "Sandmann" is coming on February 27th
The "Sandmann" has been busy doing his dirty deeds on the world wide web for some time now, but we're proud to announce that soon, namely from February 27th, you can have your very own "Sandmann"to take home. That's the official release date for "Sandmann" as the brand new OOMPH! single. You can also choose between two versions: "Sandmann" will be available as a normal 2-track single (naturally including "Sandmann" and a "Sandmann" remix by [:SITD:]) as well as in a limited 5-track edition including the two "Sandmann" versions along with "Auf Kurs", "Du lügst" and the three videos from the "Monster" album ("Labyrinth", "Auf Kurs" and "Sandmann"). Now you can finally see the latest OOMPH! videos anytime you want in full size on your TV. Just in time for the release, the now infamous Labyrinth Game will also undergo a makeover. The details are a secret for the moment, but rest assured that the game will go on!

ROCK & RUN - Flux in running shoes
Ahh...the temperatures are moving slowly but surely back above zero, the sun is peeking through the clouds again and the snow is melting away. Finally, you can fish your running shoes and pants out of the back of your closet and hit the road.
Oomph! guitarist Flux demonstrates what a bundle of energy he is not only in the video for their latest single "Sandmann" (Release date: Feb. 27th), but also in his everyday life. While his nighttime job has him abusing his guitar onstage, his daytime activities include sprinting through the local parks and sidewalks of wherever the band happens to be on tour. He talks extensively about this other passion in the German-language February issue of Runner's World magazine! So strap on your running shoes and get to the next magazine stand!

OOMPH! - The "Sandmann" is here!
It's finished! Hardworking Dero, Flux and Crap outdid themselves between Xmas and New Year's to get the OOMPH! video for their new single "Sandmann" finished on schedule. So much for relaxed holidays...
But the hard work has paid off, because the "Sandmann" video enjoys its world premiere today on the OOMPH! myspace page. And just as we've come to expect, they've created a new film masterpiece in the finest OOMPH! tradition, underscoring this brand new piece with some very intense images. Since pictures speak more than a 1,000 words, we advise you to push ‘Play' and fasten your seatbelts! The "Sandmann" single will be released then in February (to fill out your collections!), so keep an eye out right here for further details.

OOMPH! - Take a break? What's that?
The year is winding down now and the days are getting shorter, but in Braunschweig, Germany it seems that time runs differently somehow. OOMPH! boys Dero, Flux and Crap, after their amazing "Monster" tour, are not taking a break at all - instead they're right back at work. The latest item on their "to do" list: Shooting the next video, what else?! And here's the best part: Instead of taking another song from "Monster" as the next single, they've come up with a brand new song altogether. That's right folks, brand new! Of course a previously unreleased number and not an old b-side they've found on the shelf. So for now that's all the info we can give away, but there's more to come in the not-too-distant future - bet you're already bursting with curiosity, aren't you?! Don't worry, we'll keep you updated on everything...

Following All Ends, OOMPH! hit the stage and just blew the fuggin' doors off the place! Dero, Crap and Flux pushed the temperature skywards with a 24-song "Best Of" setlist! After a full two hours and loads of encores, Dero rounded off the evening with an acapella offering.
