Emigrate is the name of a band led by Richard Kruspe, the lead guitarist and founder of Rammstein. It began as a side-project of Kruspe's in 2005, when Rammstein decided to take a year off from touring and recording.
The band features Kruspe on vocals and guitar. Henka Johansson (of Clawfinger) is the drummer and Arnaud Giroux (of Axel Bauer) is the bassist and background vocalist.[1]
On September 5, 2006, members of the Rammstein.de newsletter were sent an invitation to the Emigrate newsletter and given the chance to download the song "Wake Up", a sneak peek of the upcoming album. Three song samples were also posted on Emigrate's website: "My World", "Babe" and "Temptation". Fans voted "Babe" as being their favorite, and newsletter recipients were allowed to download "Babe" in its entirety starting November 29, 2006.[2] On May 21, 2007 the Emigrate Official Website opened and "My World" was made available for download, in its entirety, to newsletter subscribers.
