Smother Magazine Band Spotlight: :wumpscut:
:wumpscut: has for over a decade been one of the leading innovators of the industrial movement. The genius by Rudy Ratzinger is what has propelled the :wumpscut: universe to the forefront of the industrial scene, although his music has a cult-like following in the underground.
