Industrial,goth, alternative metal etc...

an_dorchadas

Any bands ye like worth recommending under this category? I'm thinking along the lines of Rammstein, Tool, Gothminister, Covenant etc...

Karl Hungus

Hmm... Skinny Puppy should be the first port of call for Industrial, and as far as Goth goes, you can't beat Fields of the Nephilim. Alternative Metal though? A Perfect Circle perhaps?

an_dorchadas

Yup! I've got all of those, perhaps I should be asking for some 'hidden gems'!! Thanks for the tips though...

Otis Driftwood

Anaal Nathrakh-covers all the headings mentioned(well,maybe not goth)

Watchmaker-hard to describe,sort of industrial,sort of grind,heavy as hell

Nasum-leans more towards the grind/alt category

Agrophobic Nosebleed---as above

Kess73

Skinny Puppy and Fields of the Nephilim +1



Industrial

Ministry Psalms is brilliant


Type O Negative's "Slow, Deep And Hard"



Goth


Cannot go wrong with Type O's "Bloody Kisses" either for a slightly goth feel.


Sisters Of Mercy would be an obvious shout also.

Ah, I probably won't be of much help so, I'm not too into the whole Industrial/Goth thing any more. :pac:

assemblage 23 / front line assembly - amazing!
fear factory - remanufacture
type o negative - life is killing me
das ich (german goth industrial)
bauhaus - "in the flat field" or "mask" albums
killing joke - "nighttime" (not goth per say but real dark)
siouxsie and the banshee's - "juju"
White Zombie - "Astrocreep 2000"

machiavellianme

Laibach
Apoptygma Berzerk

This was meant to be a quick post but of course I had to go through my music which took about 30 minutes . I don't think anyone has posted the following bands. They are mostly Industrial/Metal/Dark Electro. I've highlighted the ones I quite like but they are all worth a listen. All the links point to the band's MySpace pages so you can at hear what they sound like.

• Cyanotic
• Dawn of Ashes
• Deadstar Assembly
• Deathstars
• Dioxyde
• Havoc Unit
• I:Scintilla
• Kidney Thieves
• Leiden
• Machinae Supremacy
• Mortiis
• Synthetic Breed
• The Birthday Massacre
• UCNX
• Wumpscut

Just as a matter of interest, what counts as Alternative Metal?

Indeed

an_dorchadas

I would always have put Tool in the 'alternative metal' Malice, that said, now that you ask I'm not sure. On a slightly different topic..I love Deathstars, they're great craic...

Karl Hungus

Trying to think of some of the more obscure Industrial acts I've listened to over the years. I'll trust you've heard Merzbow? Gotta love Laibach as well. For more of the goth thing, I'd recommend Switchblade Symphony. Can't think why I hadn't mentioned them before.

nacho libre

Aborym
Aesma Daeva
Atrocity
Dodheimsgard
Dimension F3H
Gire
Red Harvest
Sturmgeist
Samael (later stuff)
The Amenta

I love really dark music, but could never get into the "traditional" goth rock bands like the nephilim or sisters. They just dont sound particularly dark or genuine... to me that is. I dont hear the sadness or atmosphere in them at all.

projectmayhem

for industrial try front242 and front line assembly (among the others mentioned)... but also see KMFDM for your "industrial rock"

Cyanotic! I completely forgot about them. I totally by chance bought a Psalm 69 tshirt from one of the guys in the band a few years back on ebay. He send me out a free copy of their first EP. Nice guy

Thought I'd scan through my music and see if i could add any more good ones to that list

Dark electro/EBM etc

Amduscia
Andtroid Lust
Apoptygma Berzerk
Aslan Faction
Aryia
Blutengel
C-Drone-Defect - Definitely worth checking out
Colony 5
Combichrist
Cyborg Attack
FabrikC
Funker Vogt
Grendel
Hocico
Icon of Coil
Mind in a Box
Suicide Commando
Tactical Sekt
The Retrosic
The Strand
Velvet Acid Christ
VNV Nation (Irish lead singer..yet they've only played here for the first time recently, odd stuff)

More industrial and experimental

Ohgr (Spinny puppy spin off, really good too)
Coil
Current 93
Download
Einsturzende Neubauten
Spermblaster

Goth
(Cant remember if anyone mentioned these)
Clan of Xymox

Metal
Turmion kÄtilÖt (If you like Rammstein you should like these)

Morrigan

Some random suggestion from me:
ASP (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8kvrYuQHOo)


If you don't find what you're looking for here, try http://www.side-line.com/ or get an account with Lastfm and type in the genres as tags. You'll get lots of independant, unsigned artists there as well as the signed, big and small, old and new, from all across the world.

That's a nice long list , I must check out some of those myself! I'm not sure how but I managed it but I missed Grendel and Retrosic off my list . Both of them are well worth a listen. I also missed out Zeromancer but they are probably more metal-orientated.

Also try Music Map. Type in a band name and it brings back related bands.

Krieg

Loving this thread already, found some very good stuff I never heard before, in particular Laibach.


Anyway, you may be interested in Ruoska for industrial

carchaeologist

Il probably get shot down here, and i doubt its as hard as you might want,but gary numans last album "jagged" was very industrial, and hes bringing out a remix version "jagged edge" later in the year.

Good call with Ruoska. I listened to them for the first time last week. The singer reminds me a little of the guy from Rammstein (singing Finnish instead of German I assume ).

Numina

For Goth - Lycia, Lycia, and more Lycia.

missLucidia

x x

ANarcho-Munk

Throbbing Gristle, Whitehouse and Yellow Swans for the industrial/noise side of things.

clicli

Celldweller are brilliant, apoptygma beserk, zeromancer, christian death for more gothy moods, and for a good mix try and find the Gothic-Industrial tribute to the smashing pumpkins, and Rob Dougan

GrewSome

On the industrial goth side does anyone remember Einsturzende Neubaten or Alien Sex Fiend?? Big Bauhaus fan BTW.

i find combichrist, a perfect circle and the cure quite sexy
