Who else here likes Industrial music? I've just started listening to it and I'm loving it. I've always listened to Godsmack (Serenity is incredibly awsome) and now I've started listening to Nine Inch Nails. Also, I just ripped the new Rammstein CD to my HDD and I can't turn it off!

Who are your favorite Industrial groups and what are your favorite songs?
 
Well, I don't really, although Fear Factory are classed as Industrial. Mnemic are a softer rip-off of Fear Factory, but I don't like them.

So count me in as a Fear Factory fan.
 
Godsmack is Industrial?!

I like KMFDM, Throbbing Gristle, Meat Beat Manifesto, Fear Factory, Ministry and a little bit of Nine Inch Nails.

I really only like NIN's Pretty Hate Machine and a couple songs from The Downward Spiral. The rest of Reznor's catalog is crap.

It seems like a lot of Industrial music is just some guy screaming at the top of his lungs about nothing particularly interesting to an electronic and harsh backbeat.
 
I can't see how Nine Inch Nails is really that good. I have 2 of their albums, Pretty Hate Machine being one of them. NIN are terrible. I see no talent, nothing interesting and the music just doesn't go well together. I really don't see how they can be seen as decent. Sorry, but that's my feelings on them.

Also, I just read that. Godsmack are not Industrial.

Fear Factory is good. Demanufacture is their best album by far. I'm starting to like Obsolete, even though my original feelings about that album were bad. The new album isn't anything great. Digimortal is absolute crap. I haven't heard anything other than those.

They do not fit into Klostrophobic's feel of Industrial, although I feel that quite a lot of Industrial is similar to that.

Also, who are KMFDM and what are they like? Wouldn't mind a bit of an explanation on what they're like. Thanks.
 
Sorry for the double post, but I'd really like to take back something I said. Obsolete is 100 times better than any other Fear Factory album, and Demanufacture is still good. I don't know why I didn't like Obsolete. It's a great album. I recommend it to anyone who wants to listen to Fear Factory.
 
Once again, I have made a fool out of myself. I am really trying to learn genre classification, I truley am. My friend is "tutoring" me. Godsmack is just listed at sooo many places as Industrial, I guess I was corrupted by them. I guess they must all be wrong.

:rolleyes:

EDIT: I've also started to listen to Marylin Manson. I think of him as industrial, my friend does, and so do many places. Do you think that he does Industrial Rock?
 
Fear Factory is really the only Industrially classified band I listen to. I don't really think Godsmack is Industrial at all.
 
They aren't. Godsmack are one of those bands that gets placed all over the place. I don't even know what they are myself, but I know they're not Industrial. And yes, I'm pretty sure Marylin Manson is Industrial.

Also, I remember when you bombarded me with questions about genre-classification. You really hate it, don't you? :lol:

it's really a matter of opinion. Thats what makes it so difficult. The you get flamed when you get it wrong. I'm entitled to my opinion.
 
Is Iron Maiden industrial?

At least I think they are, so it would be the only industrial band I listen to. According to BNR Metal Page, it says that Maiden is (???)NWOBHM(???) or something like that
 
I would think of both Godsmack and Marylin Manson (I haven't heard too much of his stuff, so I could very well be very wrong) to both be rock. But anywho, I agree. Catagorizing bands can be very confusing and not worth the trouble.

I've heard a few songs by Haujobb, and... :dunce: I believe it was another band considered to be "industrial", but those were both very long ago. I did like the songs though.
 
Fear Factory are hardly industrial, you could say that they are influenced by industrial music. They are Metal before industrial.

KMFDM are awesome, NIN I like them but they (ok he) aren't exactly true industrial music. I like a few Wumpscut songs, but the rest of them just sound very disjointed, the same goes for Skinny Puppy. Although I recently discovered Project Pitchfork and i'm really enjoying that at the moment. I've heard of Haujobb, but never heard anything of them i'll check them out.

Absolutely not.

Also, I've had this debate before about Fear Factory being Industrial or Death. I would call them Industrial Death Metal, but in my mind, they're closer to Industrial. I don't like many bands at all from the Industrial genre. Wumpscut are boring to me, too.

I want to have a listen to KMFDM though. By the sounds of it, they may be decent.

Also, Marylin Manson is classed as Industrial. That's the genre he's given. Godsmack are far from Industrial.
 
Kmfdm is great in terms of industrial metal

i dont listen to them much anymore, but i did about a year or two ago and i loved them.

just go download some songs to see what they sound like, or watch their music videos on Launch, the videos are awesome

songs to listen to:
"Juke Joint Jezebel"
"Drug Against War"
"Megalomaniac"
 
Silverzone
I listen to NIN, Rammstein, And Fear Factory. Thats as far as I go into industrial.

That is not industrial music my friend.


Right now I'm listening to a guy from Denver, goes by the name of "Hideous Input"

I Am Not Alive is the name of the track.

My industrial favourites are Nitzer Ebb and "Join In The Chant"
Not to forget Poise Noire and "Pity For Thy Self"

Hate Departement are also my fav. 90's industrial band. 👍

Explain to me how it isn't. All three of those bands are commonly referred to as Industrial. Fear Factory are Industrial Death Metal. Rammstein are a mix of Industrial Heavy Metal and Nine Inch Nails is Industrial mixed with anything from Electronica, Alternative, Rock, Pop, etc.

They may not be pure Industrial, but it still classes very much as Industrial.
 
These groups are industrial? :odd: I thought it was more like random sounds "technoish" but heavy and produced by industrial tools?? Either way I'll go to winamp streaming music and check it out again. :D:tup:
 
id ont really listen to NIN or Marilyn M.

I like Godsmack - which some songs i'd consider industrial'ish.
but... i love Rammstein! :drool:
