Review:

Beautiful, well branded and unique standard compilant site for german band Rammstein. Interesting use of a fixed background image to create a frame-like effect. Also interesting to see how solved the page width issue (try resizing your window to smaller than 800). Great site and good design skills.

very nice.

only real problem i can see is that all the script needed to handle the scrolling and the resizing make the page really slow and "choppy"...

This site works crappy. The 'fancy' stuff makes the site very slow, and next to this: the menu and scrolling doesn't work well. The resize feature for <800*600 screens is very good! (browser used: Firefox 1.0)

Slowness is a Firefox/Mozilla bug regarding fixed positioned background images. Works beautifully with Internet Explorer 6.0.

A very well done production, though a bit slow... I don't think the problem concerns only Firefox - IE6 chops as well. The cause is probably fixed background image, because when resized to smaller than 800 both browsers seem to work a lot faster with this site.

Choppy in FireFox, but very snappy in Safari and all the other Apple Webkit based browsers.

IMO, I don't mind it being a bit slow, considering they bothered to use the standards at all.

Using Opera and don't noticing much about it either way. Might not be the most readable typographi or clearest of navigation solutions. Or the most gentle color scheme for that matter. But this is heck of a lot better than the unaccessible flash which you often stumble across at other Band sites.

The body typography could've been better, but overall it's a really great site.

I love the fact that sites like this are using standards & proving CSS based sites needn't be 'boxy'.

Excellent use of standards friendly code and css to make an original looking site even if it is not perfect. As a sidenote I saw Rammstein live in London at the weekend and they were fantastic!

The solutions are pretty brilliant. Love the resizing thing. Overall, one of the best band sites I've ever seen.

This is the best band site I've ever seen, and certainly in the top 10 of any site I've ever seen! It certainly proves CSS and HTML can do the business, and works fine on phones and text browsers too.

Have to agree, is a bit clunky scrolling. But the design and markup is superb. Nice work!

This site is a top of the line product. I've tested it in Mozilla, IE, and Firefox - it smooth and works great. It is not slow - just use decent DSL, people!

The question is how did they make it? Who knows, pleas, post.

It's me again :) I played more with this site and found some ussues with it. In IE scale the window down, then scroll the text all the way down, and scale window back up. See what happens...

this is a site that once inspired me to make a position-fixed layout, and is one of the best (if not the best) band site I've ever seen. plus, I'm a big fan :D
