“Lades and gentlemen. Hau Ruck.” Thus begins their latest opus, the first time listeners have received a personal greeting from the band since Naïve. We are then treated immediately to the thrashing “Free Your Hate,” featuring some trademark guitar riffs, revolutionary lyrics, and most notably Lucia sounding more menacing than ever before. In his recognizable shout, Sascha proclaims, “The beatings will continue until morale improves;” they do not fail to deliver this promise, as each following track ups the ante.
...
Simply put, Hau Ruck is one of the best albums KMFDM has yet produced. Some would probably think that the lack of the revolving door of guest musicians might make for an uninspired set of songs. However, the lineup of Lucia, Jules, Sascha, Andy, and Steve do not disappoint in creating a varied and aggressive album, with each track pummeling out an onslaught of brutal industrial power. While not a dramatic departure from the sound of WWIII, Hau Ruck should please KMFDM fans of old with the increased presence of groovy beats and electronics the likes of which have not been heard from the band since 1997.
