Industrial and Post-Industrial music.
kwintpod:
Early Swans is pretty great, Filth especially
tricia kidd:
all Swans is amazing music, though i wouldn't really call any of their output "industrial".

Thanks. CoH I've heard of but not heard, while Deutsch Nepal is completely new to me. If I'm lucky I'll be able to get to a music store that specializes in esoteric music this weekend, maybe pick something up. If not, I know where my Xmas money is going.
Re: Swans, I've always considered them about as industrial as Foetus, which is to say, "uh, a bit, kinda, I guess." There's no denying Swans, Foetus and similar artists started out mining similar sonic veins as the Industrial records folks at the same time (not to mention subsequently influencing a lot of the same bands that followed them) but came at it from a different direction. As far as early Swans go, I love "Time Is Money (Bastard)".
dancarter:
Where would one draw the line for say, old-school EBM(such as F242, FLA, Die Krupps,etc. ) and industrial? Are they kissing cousins or closer to the same thing? What about more current acts like NTT or say, early Antigen Shift (like the album Next to Departed), Iszoloscope, ESA, Pneumatic Detach, etc.?
Either way, my hat always tossess out Skinny Puppy's Last Rights. Perhaps the most 'industrial' album they made; certainly the most difficult but worthwhile.
tricia kidd:
i think foetus is pretty definitely industrial. whatever he is, he's awesome, except for a couple recent albums (though LOVE was a fucking great return to form).
front 242/nitzer ebb/etc. i would say is industrial. 242 certainly intended to be, they always rejected the "EBM" label. whatever they are, they're awesome.
i think the most industrial skinny puppy album is vivisectvi. much more so than last rights. though to be fair last rights was their last good cohesive album.
vivisectvi is still way better.
