Liebe ist für alle da (German for "Love is there for everyone") is the sixth studio album by German Industrial metal band Rammstein, which was released in most of Europe on 16 October 2009, the United Kingdom on 19 October 2009 and the United States on 20 October 2009.
The album title was confirmed on 1 September 2009, in a promotional video for the new single, "Pussy", released on 18 September 2009 in the European Union and 19 September 2009 in the United States. The single's B-side is "Rammlied".
The video for "Pussy" was released on adult website Visit-X, two days before the single. The video features scenes of explicit male and female nudity as well as the band members (played by body doubles in the nude scenes) engaging in sexual activity with women.
In July 2009, a promo version of the title track, "Liebe ist für alle da", leaked onto the internet, along with various promotional materials.
The album was released on 16 October 2009 in Europe and 20 October in the U.S. It became platinum in Finland before its release, solely from pre-release sales. It debuted at number 3 in the French charts, making it Rammstein's most commercially successful album in France to date.[citation needed] Furthermore, the album entered at number 13 on the US charts, making it Rammstein's highest-charting album in the United States, although it subsequently fell off the US album charts after four weeks. In Germany, the album entered the charts at number 1 after the best start of a music album in 2009 and beating popular German R&B-singer Xavier Naidoo's new album "Alles kann besser werden". It remained high in the charts until it was censored.
