They sure are. Having said that, Canada is more than welcome to keep them.

Hey, you guys want to start an NME-Friendly Gimmick Band thread if you want to talk about that stuff?

Cheers!

Insignificant:
Props to you for trying to get a Coil thread off the ground. Seriously, their work was really brilliant.

More partial to Sol Invictus than Death In June, although the latter have some great songs. I'm especially fond of the very early, experimental stuff ("State Laughter", etc.) in spite of its relative lack of polish. Current 93 are easily my favourite of the "folky" side of the post-industrial whatever, though; Sleep Has His House is pure genius, as is Of Ruine Or Some Blazing Starre, and Hypnogogue... Really, almost anything they've done is at least above average.

However, I must disagree with your assessment of Young God's roster. While not all of it is to my taste, I must give Gira kudos for his sense of aesthetic. That, and his own work, in particular his Swans and Angels Of Light output from 1995-2005 (The Great Annihilator through Everything Is Good Here/Please Come Home). But I digress.

Pelt are quite interesting, if one is so inclined. In the same vein, but far from any normal definition of folk, there is always Jackie-O Motherfucker. A bit like an American Nurse With Wound, but with more live instrumentation. Fig. 5, for an example, is utterly demented.
