Rammstein's Drummer Addresses Lindemann's Allegations and Departure from the Band.

Rammstein drummer Christoph Schneider has issued a statement regarding the recent allegations of sexual misconduct made against the band's vocalist, Till Lindemann. Schneider stated that he does not believe anything criminally relevant occurred, but certain structures had grown beyond the limits and values of the other band members. The allegations are currently being investigated by German authorities, and the band's label has suspended marketing and promotional activities for the band's recordings. Lindemann's book publisher also dropped him earlier this month.
