Never see craig around so much as this thread! A few industrial notes and he's out of the woodwork!
I did Acid with Pigface in 1991. When Skinny Puppy and Trent Reznor were a part of it!!
"black man, white man, rip the system!"
too much fun those days... before the whole thing took itself too seriously. Craig, you might not appreciate this, but i sincerely believe that Trent Reznor fucked up industrial music. (And don't any of you start with the whole "Those bands aren't industrial" thing, we all know Neubauten were the ONLY industrial act to ever earn a dime!)

Much of what passes as "Industrial" these days is either more synthpop (VNV Nation et al) or has become hybridized with metal, a la Bile (and even KMFDM). You can see that a lot of the players started moving in other directions around the same time. I don't know if that's just a coincidence or not. Around that time Bill Leeb began concentrating on Delerium and neglecting Front Line, and Front Line's later stuff is definately not the raw, edgy straight industrial of old. Still very good records though. KMFDM got much more "metal band" for a while, then went dancy, then metal again..
I'm probably the wrong person to be expounding on this because I actually LIKE a lot of what the big players have done after NIN/the "great industrial collapse"
And you don't see me around here as often because we don't have many musical conversations like this any more.

Ok... Rarely if ever did any of the synth industrial folks sing about their broken hearts. It's what made the genre deep (IMO) that it was mostly political/social! And then along comes NIN to introduce gothic pedanticism to hardcore synth music. UGH!!! It's like Punk Rock love songs. Suddenly every half baked goth kid with cheap eyeliner and a DX7 is shouting suicide songs to his drum machine... the scene get's filled with bad ego's, bad attitudes and too much selfish whining bullshit. (Sister machine Gun, 16 Volt, Marilyn Manson).
So the people who built it up, like Bill Leeb, David Ogilvie, Jean-Luc DeMeyer and even Alain Jourgensen (the father of the second generation of this stuff) backed off and out of the scene... Bill Leeb SAID that Industrial synth music was old and outdated, that it was time to move forward! I'm not sure I completely agree with that but it says a lot that the main guy in FrontLine feels that way!
I think NIN wrecked that whole scene of aging punks with synths with his whining, and I think Marilyn Manson proves it! The dance music thing in industrial synth music is what's left of that scene, like Project Pitchfork, Funkervogt and all those crazy friggin' German angry techno bands... and they just don't even come close! My opinion, of course, but give me Skinny Puppy, Ministry and 242 any day...

who you thought you were by who you were pretending to look like etc. playing live in fishnets was not going to ring true for a future legion of kids wanting to rock out on synthesizers.
oh that mtv.
