Wreath of Barbs is a studio album by the electronic band Wumpscut.

The album peaked at #13 on the CMJ RPM Charts in the U.S.[1] Exclaim!

described it as a "celebration of darkness and foreboding" and praised "[Wumpscut founder Rudy] Ratzinger's talent for writing a catchy song", noting the presence of "several boot tappers that make you want to hit the dance floor", but warned that the album is "not for the faint-hearted" due to its "heaviness," which makes it "an exhausting listen".

[3] PopMatters was far more negative, calling it "one of the most soul-destroying, nasty, nightmarish, and unintentionally comical albums of recent memory", with "phenomenally dull hooks" and "lyrics[...] which I guess we’re supposed to ignore (I hope)", and particularly emphasizing that the songs "Christfuck" and "Opening the Gates of Hell" were "as hilarious as their titles"; PopMatters did, however, concede that "Eclipse (Kaelte Container Remix)" features "genuine joyous danceability".
