Question:
well sounds like good ol' Mr. had Reznor's words coming then?
point is, nobody's a fucking angel, and this is nothing new to
music....
and BOTH, have made great music......
as for Haujobb? industrial? nah, techno, or some variation of
that.....
not industrial.....industrial today lacks "industrial" vibe......
someone tell me whose making "clanks" and shit with metal on metal,
etc......
Answer:
today industrial is a heavily watered down term that means absolutely
nothing. The only truely industrial band is Throbbing gristle because they
wanted to label what they couldn't classify ( some could go into detail
merging terms to describe their style - punk - neo classical - prog rock -
jazz - ? ) . Industrial should be considered bands who have no classic
musical skill and try to explore new regions of sound. Not bands who aim to
make metal clanks or ear piercing sounds. 95 % ( not even a stretch ) of
the bands talked about on RMI don't even fit the description I just gave .
The same 95 % are just variations of other acts who have also become victim
to the self perpetuating cycle of how genres are formed ( haujobb , wumpscut
, leather strip , project pitchfork , front 242 & mostly everything on
Cleopatra ) . Bill leeb is an idiot , he should be calling himself a
skinny puppy rip off. Just because he was in the band as a side member he
thinks it's okay to make an entire career off of cloning them .
So in other words you listen to nothing but Throbbing Gristle because
they are the only true "industrial" act? Obviously someone as elitist
as yourself could not be happy listening to a band that is just a
rip-off of a rip-off of a rip-off........................
