The downward spiral was the most amazing album when I was ~16, definetly a gateway drug. I liked the fragile mostly but anything newer is firmly in the same pile as fla/sp/ministrys post 2000 stuff, the what the gently caress is this poo poo pile.

PHM is overrated synthwave

Not a nin fan but imagine an old person making an exasperated face at that sequence of words.

Having TG as number one feels like the author read a wiki article on industrial and later impressed their buddies with ”did you know tg invented the phrase industrial music?”.

Electro industrial like aggrotech stuff and gothy synthpop

I allways had the naive idea that electro industrial was like Puppy back when they were good and had to go to loving wikipedia to check out the term. Even the worst subgenre, industrial metal, was mentioned
Its true and it hurts, man.

1 - Download - The Eyes of Stanley Pain
2 - Doubting Thomas
3 - that’s really about it. The Cleopatra Download releases (Furnace and Microscopic) were OK too, but I can’t remember the last time I’ve been tempted to listen to them.

This plus The Dragon Experience is hella good.

hello my friends could someone recommend some left wing/ anarchist / not fascist martial industrial? I like the martial industrial sound but find the political leanings are often quite distasteful

Lyrical content could be described as drunken ranting in Finnish.
Incredibly hard to describe to non natives how war trauma, alcoholism and 80’s comedy samples make perfect sense. Earlier material is more martial, later has some pure noise.

I have a solo album coming out april 14, did a video for the single.

This is more inspired by Trepaneringsritualen than my usual Skinny Puppy worshiping.

Lol,

"Front Line Assembly – “Millennium”
I feel like Tactical Neural Implant is probably a better “industrial record” from FLA, but this album and title track includes guitar samples from Pantera, Sepultura, and Metallica — and I know including it will piss off the electronic purist rivet heads so were going to include it, because … Bill Leeb."

It's a fine list.

He's not wrong, the guitar samples suck so much poo poo. Hardwired is where it's at if you must have metal guitars.

I Die: You Die covered the Consequence-whatever top 50 albums list, 3Teeth’s list and Al’s list at the beginning of their podcast this week. Pretty much the same reaction as a lot of us. 3Teeth’s list makes sense for 3Teeth, Al’s list is super cool, the 50 albums are a bit batshit with too much metal. They brought up another site that did Top 5 industrial metal albums.

https://www.revolvermag.com/music/fan-poll-top-5-industrial-metal-albums-all-time#1-nine-inch-nails-downward-spiral

I don’t listen to Godflesh or Fear Factory, but I’m fine with that list.

That list would have been lazy clickbait even back in the nineties. As someone that used to play industrial metal, there are about zero good bands outside early Swans and bands they influenced (Godflesh, Neurosis). KMFDM, Fear Factory, Rammstein, Rob Zombie etc should be fed to a wood chipper feet first.

Old man rant over.

Head Like A Hole was my primary entry point into the genre, and that's probably not uncommon.

I honestly wonder if there were any post '96 outtakes. I don't know if the recording processes for the post-reunion albums were anywhere near as organic as they were for the golden years.

I blame Mark Walk and his V-synth for the post-reunion poo poo.

I agree that Filth Pig rules (and is super underrated!) but I love Lat Lady Lay and Brick Windows! Is there ANYONE that likes Dark Side of the Spoon? I thought it was awful too.

It's awful but compared to the last 20+ years of dogshit metal ministry it at least has some experimentation and ideas.

Ministry playing With Sympathy and Twitch songs after +40 years sounds way better than I expected. Like others in this thread said before, I just expected the usual Ministry stuff from the last 20 years, but I'm pleasantly surprised to see Al singing with clean vocals, a violin and a cello player (!), and the band being just a bunch of goth dudes having fun. It definitely feels like the send-off Ministry deserves :unsmith:

This rules

My downer take: all of those albums are terrible and don’t even sound like SP, they should have stopped after The Process and just done occasional victory lap tours

I have to listen to the original, but my first sense is they de-emphasized the guitar samples, and I love how ugly those sound.

I think so, the guitar samples were the main reason I never listened to it back in the day and they weren't nearly as distracting on the remaster.
