  In November 1995, Rammstein performed "Weisses Fleisch" at the Bizarre Fest in Chicago, a significant moment in their early career as they were promoting their debut album, "Herzeleid," which had been released in 1995. This album helped establish Rammstein's signature sound, blending German lyrics with heavy industrial metal influences, and featured themes of desire and obsession that resonated in the song performed at the festival. The band's distinct theatrical performance style, known for its incorporation of pyrotechnics and elaborate stage setups, was already beginning to take shape at this time. The performance at Bizarre Fest also placed Rammstein alongside various other notable acts, showcasing their emergence onto the international metal scene. The event offered a platform for the band to reach new audiences in the U.S., marking the beginning of their rise in popularity outside of Germany.
