I've been listening to a lot of Snog and Angelspit lately and the lyrics are a big draw for me, are there any other good straight-up anti-capitalist electro/industrial bands worth listening to? Funny thing is that they're both Australian, but I swear that's completely a coincidence!

Comedy option is KMFDM, but KMFDM is very silly and also I've listened to all their albums.

How do you feel about Atari Teenage Riot?

Well, I'd prefer something with clearer vocals, but I never did get around to checking ATR out in any depth and this thrashy shrieking IS floating my boat, so thanks for the suggestion!

Anyone with any other suggestions? Last.fm and Spotify's related artist tabs aren't really helping outside of Chicks on Speed, who I'd forgotten about and aren't really industrial, but fit in the lyrical theme I'm looking for.

edit: Update a few hours later; Wow, I've never gone so quickly from thinking a band is OK to thinking they're aggravating before. I think ATR is best absorbed one song at a time on Youtube than like, actually listening to an album in full.

Yeah, I find them extremely aggravating. The reason I suggested them is that they sort of spawned their own subgenre of really low-fi grindcore influenced semi-political industrial stuff. So if you're asking for Industrial influenced music that has more Hardcore punk style stuff you're going to get suggested a lot of ATR/Alec Empire kind of things.

Well that's a pretty hard to please statement but I too hate most dubstep but love a wee little bit of it. And i'm sorry about the vocal sample bit but it's already reached full dubstep penetration

While not what I was looking for either, these tracks were also quite fun to listen to. I think I'm going to just have to stick with d&b for a while -- I kind of view dubstep as d&b's lazy stoner brother but the crossover saturation hasn't become prevalent enough to really prove me right. Oh well!

I'm not positive you'll enjoy these, but here's some good examples of "darker" electronica that come to mind (I also enjoy Burial and James Blake):
Kode9 and the Spaceape - Memories of the Future https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PENB0f5bcpM
The Knife - Silent Shout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d56LCOThdzM
Nicolas Jaar - Space Is Only Noise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1huCn-5kY2k
Flying Lotus - Los Angeles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKk9_V2l_TE
and if you haven't gotten to it already, you'll likely enjoy trip hop, especially Massive Attack's Mezzanine, anything by Portishead, and Tricky's Maxinquaye and Angels with Dirty Faces.

On my end, I'm looking for modern-post punk in the vein of Women's Public Strain and Soft Moon's self-titled album. I'm well aware of all the "post-punk-revival" bands on Wikipedia. Any suggestions welcome!

I've always liked the Irma comp I-Robots: Italo Electro Disco Underground Classics. A really nice collection that I'd say it does a good job of avoiding some of the utter cheese that a lot of Italo stuff can be. Basically what people now think of as Italo-Disco.

ZYX keep on doing their ZYX Italo-Disco Collection series. I think they're into double figures by now. A bit of a mixed bag though, at least the ones I've heard - quantity not quality in this case. Some really good tracks, some utter shite. Like I said people now have an image of that sleek, robotic Italo stuff, but a lot of it is more like Hi-NRG, and can be pretty cringe-worthy and badly dated nowadays. It's all mostly Italo stuff with the odd German thing or whatever sneaking in there, probably from the ZYX back catalogue as they really sold that stuff way back when, pushing the original Italo stuff via their Best of Italo-Disco collection and their own productions.

Harmless also did a couple of Euro Disco editions of their Disco Discharge series. I've not heard them but I'd be shocked if they weren't full of Italo stuff. I've really liked some of the other comps in the series so if they're half as good as them you should be cushty.

How metal is too much metal, and whats your tolerance for silly bullshit?

And unrelated how much do you like or can tolerate Jesus? Because a lot of the uplifting anthem focused Metal on your end of the spectrum (from what I can tell from those links) these days is heavy on the Jesus. I'm thinking of bands like War of Ages and Blessed by a Broken Heart. You'd probably like Chiodos - Illuminaudio as well.

I have no upper limit on metal, I listen to Meshuggah and Behemoth among many others. I can tolerate cheese far more than Jesus. Jesus and I are not friends. I'll still give it a go though.

This isn't a recommendation at all, but you brought up one of my favorite Bands Nobody Has Heard Of and I feel like I would be doing a disservice if I didn't point you in the direction of Mae Shi's earlier Ezra Buchla era, which sounds 100% different but is just as awesome. Terrorbird, Heartbeeps, the split w/ Rapider Than Horsepower, and to a lesser extent To Hit Armor Class 0 are all nifty glitchy spazzy noisy albums. Also it's a natural bridge to Gowns and EMA, who are both great.

Actually Terrorbirds was the first album I heard by them; saw them live before and they were mostly apathetic to play cause no one knew who they were. Was a shame since they are actually pretty amazing. It's also kind of a shame that Signals apparently only released a single and the other guys from Mae Shi are doing some poo poo music with Busdriver now.
