Rammstein's "Stripped" is a Depeche Mode song hauled into much heavier territory, cut for For the Masses, a tribute album to the English electronic band. Martin Gore wrote it, words and music, and Depeche Mode first put it out in 1986 as the lead single from Black Celebration, a track stitched together partly from samples, the purr of an idling car engine the best known of them.
For their version the German metal band shared the production with Jacob Hellner, and Ronald Prent mixed it. Where the original glides and broods, this one plants its boots and marches.
