Active since 1993, Rudy Ratzinger's project :WUMPSCUT: is one of the VERY few industrial acts who have succeeded in maintaining a prominent position in electronic music since its very beginnings, with "Music for a Slaughering Tribe" and a total of 18 albums so far in the :WUMPSCUT: discography.
Riding high on the success of his previous two albums, Rudy now presents his latest effort "Schrekk & Graus", loosely translated as "Scare & Horror", and despite his worldwide success (especially in Nothern America), this new album surprisingly features more German lyrics than ever. S&G offers the usual harsh industrial, synth-driven sound with distorted vocals and scary melodies. After a few excursions into more 'mellow' sound-regions, on S&G Rudy R. returns to the more aggressive, harder stuff – always maintining his special trademark: a well balanced melange of good melodies, great arrangements and industrial noise.
This limited edition LP is pressed in HEAVY (180g) quality vinyl and comes in gatefold sleeve with foil finish. It also contains mp3 download codes for all album tracks.
