Neue Deutsche Härte
The basics of the NDH style were set up by Oomph! on their second album, Sperm (1994), and by Rammstein with their first album Herzeleid (1995). Oomph!'s biggest impact was from groove metal bands such as Prong, Pantera, and Sepultura. Rammstein, who takes inspiration from many bands, such as Depeche Mode and Ministry, is one of NDH's most influential bands. NDH is specially successful in continental Europe; Rammstein having sold almost four million records in Germany, and earning gold and platinum records in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, and Finland.
