This song was re-recorded in German as "[[Mittageisen]]" and released as a single in September 1979 in Germany with Heartfield's work as the cover art. A few months later the single was also released in the UK. The Swiss [[Dark Wave|darkwave]] band [[Mittageisen (band)|Mittageisen]] (1981–1986) is named after this song's title. Hurray, There's No Butter Left, was the text on the bottom of a photo of a German family, which can be found in a political comic posted into a banned communist magazine, in 1935. Slovenian and [[SFR Yugoslavia|former Yugoslav]] [[avant-garde music]] group [[Laibach (band)|Laibach]] has a number of references to Heartfield's works: the original band's logo, the 'black cross', references Heartfield's art ''Der alte Wahlspruch im "neuen" Reich: Blut und Eisen'' (1934), a cross made of four axes, as can be seen on the inner sleeves and labels of their 1987 album [[Opus Dei (album)|Opus Dei]]. The cover art of their self-titled debut album [[Laibach (album)|Laibach]] (Ropot, 1985, Ljubljana), also references Heartfield's '' Wie im Mittelalter… so im Dritten Reich'' (1934). A track called ''Raus! (Herzfelde)'', originally on [[Slovenska Akropola]], but also included in [[Baptism (Laibach album)|Krst pod Triglavom]] and [[Opus Dei (album)|Opus Dei]] as ''Herzfeld (Heartfield)'', is about Heartfield. British [[hardcore punk]] band [[Discharge (band)|Discharge]] used Heartfield's work "Peace and Fascism" for the cover artwork of their 7-inch EP [[Never Again (Discharge EP)|Never Again]], 1981. English [[post-punk]] band [[Blurt]] recorded a song called "Hurray, the Butter is All Gone!" on their 1986 album [[Poppycock (album)|Poppycock]]. [[Armenian Americans|Armenian-American]] [[alternative metal]] band [[System of a Down (band)|System of a Down]] used Heartfield's poster for the [[Communist Party of Germany]] (''The Hand Has Five Fingers'') as [[cover art]] on their 1998 [[System of a Down (album)|self-titled debut album]]. German experimental group [[Einstürzende Neubauten]] reference Heartfield and his brother [[Wieland Herzfelde]], as well as other Dadaist and Futurist artists such as [[Kurt Schwitters]], [[Hannah Höch]], [[George Grosz]] and [[Filippo Tommaso Marinetti]] in the track "Let's Do It a Dada" from their 2007 album ''[[Alles wieder offen]]''.
