Till Lindemann’s North American Tour stop at The Fillmore Silver Spring on September 25, 2024, was an unforgettable concert that embodied his unique blend of industrial metal, dark humor, and provocative theatrics.

The duo’s theatrical presence, complete with retro-inspired outfits and ritualistic performance elements, perfectly set the tone for a night steeped in gothic and dark themes. Their unique combination of old-school rock and roll with Satanic imagery provided a fascinating and unexpected start to the show.
