I saw them recently - I think they are a pretty great band and it is probably the closest I get to 'goth' music. In fact, for me to be able to see them play in Melbourne I had to go to a Goth festival which was pretty painful.

Good to see that these guys are getting some love, they are a really hard working/touring band.

My band supported them earlier this year, they're pretty cool. Wouldn't mind checking out their new album, I don't own any of their albums but really enjoyed their live show.

Born to be Heiled finally out!!!!!! Here's my review after the first listen.

Hanzel und Gretyl fur immer- Great opener! Love the electronics and the build up, as well as the und immer's at the end!

Unterstutzung 87- We all have heard this. I am finding the album version much better. This falls in line with 2012.

Blitzkriegerz Und Hellriderz - This one is alright. Seems more of a "jam" song. Not a whole lot of substance, but I can picture rocking out to it while driving.

Hammerzeit- Get a great industrial feel from this. This song rocks! Heavy, but not in comparison to the last album.

Der Furor- Wow! This could be a close cousin to anything from the last album. Fast and loud guitars! Double bass...and Vas screaming like a maniac. Definitely has that HuG sound from anything Uber Alles to now. One of my favorites!

Born to be Heiled- Another classic HuG sound to this tune. Vas on vocals again screaming "Tot! Born to be Heiled". First song where the lyrics really catch my attention. This must be played live!!!

Holy Shiza- Satan rides with us. 666 fur immer, holy shiza! Furious and killer! Love the breakdown at the end.

Motorschwein- Industrial verse with a hard rock/metal chorus. Vas killing it again.

I'm Movin to Deutschland - Twangy, southern rocking song that is unlike anything Hanzel und Gretyl. Classic blues rhythm patterns if you are familiar and play guitar, with some HuG style thrown in.

Ironstar Outlaws- Kind of picks up where "I'm Movin to Deutschland" leaves off...with a fucking banjo!!!! This song doesn't do too much for me. It's a little too slow for me.

More German Than German- Can not get enough of this song!!! Makes me just want to get up and dance and get crazy. More uber than alles!!! Hanzel und gretyl more german than german! I love this.

The album goes by quick.... it has 3 parts to it I feel...electronic/industrial, metal, and bluesy rock. It's a good mix. Definitely need more listens to see where this ranks.
