Alec Empire vs. Rammstein

I’m surprised to see that Alec Empire has remixed Rammstein’s new “Amerika” single (International release on October 4). Alec questioned Rammstein’s sincerity in this interview with MTV back in 1998.

“Rammstein is successful for all the wrong reasons. I think they’re not a fascist band at all, but I think in Germany there’s a lot of misunderstanding and that’s why they sell records and I think that’s dangerous.” … “And I’m still waiting for them to make a real statement”

I wonder if this remix is his first step to selling out, or if the whole thing just have been straightened out?
