Heard it a few times, and so far i’ve been been. A couple “stinkers”, although i think one is because it’s just TOO poppy for me. It’s not a bad albuk though…or at least yet. Still letting it soak in since they’ve sort of got the habit of writing songs that grow really old real quick.
I remember it being on the original SUCKS single, though it’s been years since I’ve owned that one.
Weird. My copy of that single doesn’t have that…

I just double checked, yep it’s on there: http://www.discogs.com/KMFDM-Sucks/release/73603
But only on one of the four listings discogs has it on the single. Hmm… If I remember it’s a pretty cack version of the track - but it’s been well over a decade so it may have been my taste that was cack.
I’ve given it a few listens as well…nothing radically different than the last few albums. I’d say they are in a bit of a rut.
However, I do think the “Being Boiled” cover is outstanding. Old skool electronics, clean vocals from Sascha (and a surprisingly good singing voice!) “Strut” is pretty good too, with awesome vocals from Cheryl Wilson (a welcome break from Lucia). “Take’em Out” is a mostly electronic track that sounds like a B-side from Sascha’s Excessive Force side project.
