I'd just like to say Agonoize is the worst band and encapsulates everything you were talking about in your video, Twiin.

e: Or, well, not really, now that I look at it. There's not much that's outright racist or sexist here, but I still wanted to post this because it's just the worst. Blood and big-titted goth chicks cannibalizing the gently caress out :toot:

Hey how come noone posted the new Funker Vogt? It's super duper almost definitely a Funker Vogt song.
Totally convinced now that they're a self parody band music-wise. (Still going to buy the album :negative: I can't help myself.)

If Infest announce them as the replacement for KMFDM I will freak the gently caress out.

Ugh, I just got sucked into bouncing around Wikipedia looking at genre stuff.

Wikipedia posted:

While EBM has a minimal structure and clean production, electro-industrial has a deep, complex and layered sound, incorporating elements of ambient industrial. The style was pioneered by Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, and Wumpscut:. In the mid-'90s, the style spawned the dark electro and aggrotech offshoots.

I guess on some level it's right, but it's so reductive, and the terminology all makes me wanna barf. Why would someone write such a thing?

"Aggrotech (also known as Hellectro,)…"

God drat it.

You know what you'll get with Funker Vogt. Eight or so tracks, usually about war (sometimes about war in the future, sometimes war in the past) and a longer slower track to finish off the album. And if you come into the room when a track is just finishing, there's no way you'll be able to tell which song it was or which of their albums it was from. I don't know why I like Funker Vogt and keep buying their stuff, but goddamit I do.

I haven't really cared much for anything from Combichrist after The Joy of Gunz, and even that isn't really up to par with Ivardensphere or Memmaker IMHO. I didn't pay much attention to Combichrist outside of that one album.

As for the whole discussion of what is or isn't industrial music...that never goes well...nobody ever agrees on that poo poo and I know of people who will say that anything that isn't Throbbing Gristle 1970's style stuff isn't industrial. I've reached a point where I don't even care what people categorize as industrial or electro or EBM or aggrotech or what-the-gently caress-ever.

But the music is just the most insipid poo poo imaginable. It's like they took every single horrible pop music cliche ... auto-tune, featuring guy with a bit of rap, using internet slang/spelling, etc. and inserted it into an electro song.

Invite them if you want, but Faderhead attracts the local industrial-related scenes (and opening acts) and LMFAO seems to just be kids and general pop.

I agree the music isn't particularly dissimilar beyond Faderhead being slightly "harder".

I get that people have always been up-in-arms about which bands are industrial and which aren't. The issue is that "industrial" in it's own has never had a definitive definition. Personally, I lump NIN into industrial, but what of it? Hell, look at the first quote of the very first port of this thread. Industrial as a music genre has always been plagued by people arguing what is industrial and what isn't.

Subjectively, when I'm at a club listening to some good tunes and I hear people disagreeing about what is and isn't industrial, I get the gently caress out of their vicinity and go back to dancing.

Indeed. I'm reminded of an interview Lady Gaga did with German television where she said the songs from Fame Monster were heavily inspired by listening to lots of German gothic-industrial music while touring in Europe. And there's Paula Abdul songs from the 1980s that sound more similar to early industrial than contemporary industrial does.

People should listen to music that sounds good. That's about it.
That's interesting. I think I heard it once said that anyone who calls themselves "apolitical" is almost always an extreme right-wing reactionary. Rainer also describes himself in the ID:YD interview as an Austrian patriot, which I'm guessing is an Austrian ultra-nationalist/neo-fascist. It's just that we've confused fascism to mean "Nazi" while forgetting that every country has its own domestic and particular fascisms. He might not be into Hitler but he's really into Dollfuss.

Hey guys, great thread. Awesome vid, Twiin. 9000volt, your stuff is cool.

I know this is mostly an edm/electro industrial thread, but was wondering if anyone had recommendations for bands that were more of the machine rock type of industrial. The closest bands that have been mentioned are ones like kmfdm, NIN and a while back, Ohgr.

These are probably my three favorite industrial bands that haven't been brought up in the thread. They also serve as great examples of what I'm looking for more of:
16volt - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSJ2Cj8uky0
Sister Machine Gun - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yy4Mh9BCeU
Hansel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI6f9j_zZ_Y Hansel is almost completely unknown, but an amazing lyricist, if you're into introspective, existential philosophical thought that strives to push the boundaries of self-consciousness. His music is just as experimental as his lyrics.

teethgrinder
Oct 9, 2002

I'd be shocked if the first two haven't been mentioned before but it's always appreciated. I've never heard Hansel before ... kind of reminds me of the Gothsicles ha.

On the slightly obscure side you might really like the albums World Wide Wasteland and A Young Person's Guide to Heartbreak by Battery Cage:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvzV8GRmxYs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i55XNBOV0bs

And on the chance you missed it, which seems unlikely if you like KMFDM and Sister Machine Gun, ever check out of Dos Dedos Mis Amigos by Pop Will Eat Itself?

Just going through my library now... unfortunately the audio quality is poo poo on most of these YouTube links, but it should be enough to give you an idea.

You might also really like some Birthday Massacre, i.e.:

Damage Manual:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmoVIKDlZS8
Some might say it's not "industrial" but gently caress it's Martin Atkins, Chris Connelly, Geordie Walker and Jah Wobble. The band is loving amazing.

A band to keep an eye on might be Fractured:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_XNT-5U2UI
I weirdly have two versions of their first album. The original was more synthy, the second is more guitar driven. Live they were practically all heavy heavy guitar.

You should check out Killing Joke from like Pandemonium onward. Hard to pick a particular track but here goes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak5TxzBzfDw
I love the 2003 self-titled, Hossanas and Absolute Dissent so loving much. I haven't listened to their latest yet if it's out.

Bonus badass Nine Inch Nails remix of Democracy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgIBc8c1UGw
There's a wicked vocal version around too but it's seemingly pretty rare.

edit:

Refused are not industrial, but they're a legendary band, and seemed to be very popular in industrial circles:

teethgrinder, you're the best. Great stuff all over. Battery Cage is exactly what I was looking for and I've never heard of them before, already bought an album from them. I listened to Gothsicles a little bit and actually liked them but they remind me more of some of the "Mindless self indulgence knockoffs" I've seen online like Retard-o-bot than Hansel. Maybe it's the nerdcore-ish videogame references everywhere, lol.

I actually saw Birthday Massacre live (opened for Mindless self indulgence). I don't think anyone at the show really knew them, but the crowd still loved them.

I'm stupefied that I haven't heard of Damage Manual and Refused before. Both amazing (at least the songs you linked) and I'm gonna end up buying their discographies, I know. Thanks for including the NIN remix, never heard it before but its got that perfect brand of NIN's aggressive sexiness.

To me, KMFDM, NIN, and Ohgr are at very opposite ends of the genre/style, so it's hard to say. But some other bands not mentioned that might spark your interest..

Interlace
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDtfHkm-qbQ&feature=related
From their album "Imago". The whole album is kinda like if you took Year Zero and mixed it with elements of Too Dark Park. European band, maybe a bit more elextronic than what your looking for but still interesting and very "machine music".

Mortiis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liu5_axCFoQ
That band with the guy who literally dresses like a troll. But he doesn't do that anymore, apparently. The whole EP sounds exactly like you mixed Portrait Of An American Family with The Fragile and had Al Jourgensen do vocals. It's ok, if your into that sort of thing.

Kobold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9xnAeT7LSw
From the album "The Taste Of Copper". Very much influenced by Skinny Puppy - The Process though maybe more electronic. Don't know much about them I think they just put out this one album a couple years ago and then kinda went on hiatus.

Dead When I Found Her
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBbXNSRCvuM&feature=related
From recent debut album "Harms Way". Probably the best of the 80's industrial clones. He gives it tons of heart, and although clearly using modern production tricks, sonically he does sound better than most actual 80's industrial music.

re: machine rock industrial ...

Because they haven't been mentioned per your request yet ..

If you liked the Damage Manual stuff, you might be interested in the Atkins/Ogre collaboration Rx.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6shQ7KdqJvk

And because that album was a natural extension of a bigger project, some of the early Pigface stuff might tickle your fancy. Some of their latter records, feature members of bands already suggested to you (Chemlab).
