"Sucks" is a KMFDM single released in anticipation of their 1993 album Angst. It contains four versions of the song "Sucks" as well as "More 'N' Faster", a reworked version of "More & Faster".

The song includes the lyric "We don't like Michael Jackson, we hate Depeche Mode, we don't care for Madonna or Kylie Minogue", a tongue-in-cheek reference to the various (false) interpretations of the initialism "KMFDM" at the time, including "Kill Mother-Fucking Depeche Mode", "Kidnap Madonna For Drug Money" and "Kylie Minogue Fans Don't Masturbate". The lyrics also include a reference to Tipper Gore and the Parents Music Resource Center labelling albums with Parental Advisory stickers, "Our records have stickers with a warning from Tipper, 'cause they're no good for kids; if we'd get her, we'd strip her."
