:wumpscut: (sometimes referred to as Wumpscut or :W:) is an
electro-industrial project from Germany. It was founded in May of 1991 by
Bavarian disc jockey Rudy Ratzinger (born June 3, 1966).
History and members Ratzinger has always been the main creative force
behind :wumpscut:, occasionally employing the help of others as guest
artists. Ratzinger cites the influence of such bands as Leæther Strip as
his reason for making the transfer from DJing to recording music.
The release of the song "Soylent Green", which is named after the 1973
movie and also contains audio samples from the German dubbed version,
first attracted attention to :wumpscut:. Since its release in 1993, it has
become a frequently played song at events and clubs in the goth and
industrial subcultures and its associated splinter groups, both in Germany
and the United States.
So far Ratzinger has published numerous recordings
