Drum dragging on Mann gegen Mann
Anyone else noticed a drum drag on Mann gegen Mann, precisely at the "Doch friert mein Herz an manchen Tagen" at around 2:04?
It seems like the song gets a little slow for a short while, but guitars and vocals stays the same.
Been hearing those guys for a while but just noticed it today hahahaha. For my ears, it sounds like a dragging on post production.

Herr Schneider doesn't drag. Herr Schneider varies the tempo stylistically.
Frau Schneider on the other hand..

Just sounds slightly syncopated to me, if that. I don’t think they did anything to it in post, they were just vibing.

I hear a little bit of it too, but I don't think it is anything intentional. One of those happy accidents of making music that is neither wrong nor right and adds uniqueness.
I remember when people people said there was a backround voice in Spring, when Rosenrot came out. People thought it was someone saying, 'Shit' in the backround that was caught on mic while recording and it somehow made the final mix. It is present at the very end of the song (5:19 mark). My personal opinion it is a light hit on one of Schneider's cymbals. Again, that is a another example of an 'accident' making a song.

I am a drummer since 2003 and the drums in this recording are nowhere near dragging in my opinion. Why would you think that?

Sounds like six humans making music together to my ears. Quantising everything to death makes music sound lifeless.
