Who could resist this invitation on the cover? Not me, that's for sure. This album is undoubtedly the most ironic by Die Toten Hosen yet, as it tackles serious topics with a wink. It becomes clear right from the first track, "Umtausch ausgeschlossen!" (No Returns Accepted!), that you should ask your neighbour or landlord about the side effects of this CD, as it's definitely meant to be played loud and, of course, sung along to. "Niemals einer Meinung" (Never Agreeing) deals with a relationship that probably does exist – though not a pleasant one in my opinion. The content of the "Hot-Clip-Video-Club" is more relevant than ever today, even if we now call it "www". You have to admit that only Die Toten Hosen can sing so convincingly to our conscience, especially on topics like right-wing radicalism or nationalism. Even the serious issue of contraception is addressed in "Drunter, drauf & drüber" (Under, Over & Over). The title track deals with today's overwhelming consumerism, fittingly framed by three funny advertising jingles. It couldn't be more ironic than in "Sascha ... ein aufrichtiger Deutscher" (Sascha ... an Honest German). By the way, more songs were dedicated to this character on the single release. Whatever drug you might be offered, it should never be as tempting as described in "Gute Reise" (Good Journey). If love goes as far as in "Alles aus Liebe" (Everything for Love), it's already too late – the gunshots at the end of the song should make every neighbour sit up and take notice. This is followed by the hopeful song "Wünsch Dir was" (Make a Wish), performed with a children's choir. Back then, Tom Gerhardt was still funny – even today in the intro/outro of the pogo song "Rambo-Dance". And indeed: I would immediately join the "Katastrophen-Kommando" (Disaster Command) anytime. Almost a perfect album, if it weren't for the weak hidden track.
Translated automatically,The album is really good, the sound is mega awesome and there's hardly any noise. It's a shame that the B-sides (from War and Peace onwards) aren't included on an extra LP. That would have been even cooler. But otherwise, it's all perfect!
