Good ole' chap Tommuel's own wording:

Taken from one of the many Combichrist/KMFDM threads:

Tommuel v.2
Industrial music orignally started as a way of completley "destroying music - it was supposed to be a different variation of what you're used to hearing", a "chaotic sound laboratory", it was more a load of experimental noise. Noise and true industrial is linked with torture, nihilism and hyper-consumerism. Where's all this in this soppy EBM balls?

Yes, there's the old industrial, Throbbing Gristle and the likes, Whitehouse, Merzbow etc, but some of the newish stuff being released like power electronics and powernoise is fantastic. It still stays true to the meaning and genre.

Throbbing Gristle started the genre you all know [and abuse the name] as they started Industrial Records in London.


I would like to believe Skinny Puppy; while not being an actual act on industrial records....would still be qualified as industrial? I mean hell....Puppy Gristle?!?!? Jam sessions with Genesis P'Orridge himself.

So here it is. Speak of the true industrial here. Not just Skinny Puppy but....true industrial.

I highly recommend the Re/Search Guide to Industrial Music. Frigging fascinating history of the genre with interviews of several seminal artists; I found it in a comic store at random for something like $5. Must-have for any industrial fans. 3nodding

Linkzorz? smile

I will admit. It took a few listens to TG for me to get into it. But, I must say I like it now. I'm starting to listen to noise a bit, too.

i think i remember tommuel mentioning this to me one time. IIRC, his teacher gave (or lent) it to him.

throbbing gristle is essential listening for any indutrial fan worth his own salt.

I checked my itunes for industrial bands:

Hanzel und Gretyl
Decoded Feedback
Delerium
cEvin Key
Froot Fly
Joker
KMFDM
Ministry
Nine Inch Nails
OhGr
Rammstein
Skinny Puppy

I find a lot of my favourite bands hard to label...usually they fit several genres.
I will check out Throbbing Gristle.
I have some Nettwork samplers at home too, maybe some older industrial on them.
