so what are your top five songs in the industrial genre ?

 

5 too many? I couldn't pick 500 top songs without wanting to add another 500.

Nice choice with ST btw. I prefer "How Can I live Tomorrow..". but ..

 

good taste in music fear factory is the shit

 

My number one right now is actually a track by 16 Volt that Catalyst posted among our memes. Now I play it every time I check out that brilliant thread, and it just keeps sounding better. That chorus is great

16 Volt - Cables & Wires

Five other favorites:

Depeche Mode - Stripped

Nine Inch Nails - Starfuckers, Inc

Peace Love & Pitbulls - Cities about to xplode

Front Line Assembly - Lose

Skinny Puppy- Use Less

.

I guess some ppl wouldn't like to call anything by Depeche industrial since they started with pop and reached such a huge audience cause they kept that element in their music, but to me they have a bunch of stuff that is just as raw and independent as others in that genre.
And even Mr Reznor was strutting on the light side back in the glorious 80's... :dancing:

.

 

Yeah, Trent totally had the New Romantic package goin on there. I like to check out some of the 'sins' my favorites may have committed down the line.
Makes me feel less bad about some of the crappy stuff I have done myself.
But I also think I like NIN so much cause there's some trace of that pop background in the way he builds his tracks. As I'm sure you can hear from my choices I'm a sucker for a bit of structure, variation and some melody, even in heavy and dark genres.
BTW I have a couple of 90's Megadeth and Suicidal Tendencies CD's in my shelves too.

 

This is so difficult for me because what are we talking here: Aggrotech? EBM? Electro-Industrial? Industrial? Power Noise? It would be so difficult even if I narrowed it down to one subgenre.

thisis theend
I didn't even watch the trent video but I'd bet my balls that's Exotic Birds. *yes*

16Volt is the best band you've never heard. I think that was from a review I read somewhere on an Industrial blog but of course I had been into them from their Wisdom album which is fucking ace.

 

Your balls are safe my friend, it was those lovely birds with fluffy hair

About the tracks, you could do like Matt and me, just pick 5 favorites. I could easily have chosen 100 others too, except for 16 Volt which I'm really diggin ATM.
"I fell in love with cables and wires..."
it's great

 

Been listening to a lot of Black Light Mutants. Love their fusion of Punk and industrial.
