A friend tried to get me into Youth Code. I liked what I heard but their bizarre song about trannies that samples Elliot Roger always throws me for a loop.
It's a great song, shame about the subject matter. But what can you expect from typical LA lefty musicians? I mean, just look at them.

I'm still going to see them if they ever come to my neck of the woods.
 
Bavarian electro-industrial band :wumpscut
Haven’t listened to them in ages but the dance floor always filled when a track by them was played. This is a nice little thread. Is it industrial only, or are related types allowed? Like EBM, though more on the industrial side than say, house music or something along those lines. There’s a lot of crossover industrial music with rock, metal, ebm, goth stuff, even some hiphop or other genres. I think there’s even christian industrial nowadays,
Icebreaker - Skinny Puppy

I like this for the vox effects, beat, and synth parts.
The Interstellar Mix - Big Penetrator - Forced Entry Mix - Deathride 69
Put that song under a spoiler just to be safe. Some of the samples used were explicit enough to warrant this, or other lyrics, especially on a safe for work site in general. I think the song is part joke, a critique, but the spoiler was still useful.
 
I was browsing everything Metropolis (label) put out and came across this. It's OK.


Reminds me a bit of Numb - Headcrash.
 
Covenant - Bullet

Funker Vogt - Thanks for Nothing

Hocico - Forgotten Tears

I'm surprised to see KiwiFarmers enjoying Industrial music. Isn't the whole genre just leftys who cry about how they hate conservatives and love to troon out?

I don't care much about lyrics in any genre of music. The song we were discussing is called Transitions and I could clearly hear the line "I'm nailed to this earth in the wrong fucking skin", so I quickly put two and two together in this particular case. Music to me has always been about the overall sound. For instance, I can listen to 90s gangsta rap, treat the vocals as just another instrument and not roll my eyes at BIX NOOD lyrics.
 
Imagine giving a shit about woke songs with bands. Good luck enjoying anything then. All bands get political and have done so for decades.

That's some sensitive crybaby snowflake shit. Just enjoy the music, man. If you get that bothered by it, you're too sensitive to live.

Sounds like some new shit. I feel like there aren't many good industrial musicians nowadays compared to the 90s or early 2000s.

Well, the genre is about 40 years old. The "sweet spot" was probably in the early 90s when the sound got more bassy and "full|" and the compositions were more thought out. As with any old genre of music, you just have to go out of your way to find stuff to listen to.

What I do is search for an artist on Discogs, then check labels they were on. There's often a Youtube embed section on the right, which saves time if you want to see if the release is worth getting for real (purchase/Soulseek). Example:

Nah, the origins are just outsider art, and a lot of deliberate provocation, but not really political.

There's a wide spectrum of politics these days, but most death industrial/power electronics and post industrial stuff is ethno-nationalist, or at least pro-european.
 
Discogs says EBM/synth-pop. I think it's close enough. Honestly, I don't think I can tell the difference between industrial and EBM because most of the stuff I listen to is described as both. Another tag that often pops up is "electro".

Early industrial didn't even sound like electronic music. It was mostly made up of very noisy samples. It didn't have punchy digital beats or synths.

I went music fishing on Discogs. Tags: electronic, industrial, EBM, 1990s. 100 results per page. I listened to at least 30 seconds of each artist I didn't know. Here's the search string I used.

Below is a list of links to artist and release pages. I was mostly looking for classic electro-industrial/EBM with loud beats, synths, and distorted vocals. I ignored compilations, synth-pop and pure noise. I'm sharing this because it might save you some time and encourage you to explore stuff you didn't know. Don't treat those as recommendations.

Fairly underrated Industrial/ Experimental Synth-Pop from Australia.

While NIN is more industrial-adjacent than industrial, eh, close enough. There's a hoarder out there somewhere with demos and alternate mixes for The Fragile (and maybe With Teeth) who occasionally sells or attempts to sell them on discogs and/or ebay. So once in a while, 30-second clips of demos show up, or full-length mostly-final mixes with different intros and outros from when they were trying to figure out what order to put the tracks in.

Clip of "The Wretched" demo with a bunch of little gaps in it, probably for the same reason the bootlegged versions of the Broken Movie did (enabled Trent to figure out it was Gibby Haynes's copy that leaked):

3 tracks off of a "what about this sequence?" disc:

I wish Trent would make like Billy Corgan or Metallica or (insert a hundred other bands with multi-decade careers here) and release deluxe box set editions of every album with a motherload of demos and outtakes already. And leak Tapeworm, it couldn't have been that bad.
