any good forums & mp3 shops for industrial techno out there?
same here any one know of any industrial techno artists - hardcore stuff. not that nancy boy bollox.
What the hell is industrial techno anyway?
A lot fo people seem to think the crappy distorted clangy stuff is industrial, but it falls so far away from the industrial ethic it`s unreal.
Explain more by what you mean?
The Birmingham Sound?
The Hymen/Ant-Zen sound?
Solitary by nature.
Isolation is the gift.
Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

Why not just answer his question instead of being ****in' anal about it?
Sorry man, but will you just jump down off your high horse. Everyone knows you know about industrial music, get over yourself.
You were right in your questions to Detfella, i.e. Birmingham/Ant Zen - they are good overall inidicators of "industrial techno". You know this, we all know this... that's industrial techno; no question required.
In some ways I'm sorry to have made a personal attack at you like this, you are one of the best contributors to BOA, but also one of the worst too in my opinion.
Yeah, the Emergence forum is definitely the place to check out industrial stuff and tips. One label I really like is Keller Musik, some of the earlier releases were a more heavy jacking style, but have gradually become a bit more crunchy and industrial... I like their buzz anyway - I think there might be a bit of a link between them and Zhark, who are on a darker and perhaps less dancefloor style.
Hahaha. Sunil takes a FLAWLESS VICTORY !
Or a "perfect" for the SF2 afficionados out there.
Industrial is whatever the **** you want it to be.
Just because you can't trace the roots of a project to ****ing Throbbing Gristle or bloody Birmingham (where I'm from, btw, and don't never ever hear me harping on about it) don't make it any less 'industrial'.
Not everything has to have a 'future music' production either. Who CARES if it's just pure noise, if you don't like it don't listen - why write stuff off or slag it cause it doesn't fit into your (blinkered) view of a genre.
GRRRR I hate the music 'scene' sometimes haha. What pisses me off even more are people who are 'purists' or look down on other kinds of music to their own. I love ALL good music, fact. If I like something I like it, it doesn't have to have the right 'roots' or whatever. In fact, most if not all of the music I listen to is REALLY ****ING UNCOOL and VERY COMMERCIAL. Sometimes you don't wanna fanny about in the sandpit in your garden, sometimes you wanna go to DISNEYLAND - ya get me ?
Off yaz go and pidgeonhole something else now...
I leave here, once again, more irritated than when I arrived. Sigh.
I whip on horses at the rock jam sessions. I'm a rockstar.
Tomash Gee does some metallic clangy sounding techno. Try Andreas Kreamer too. Dunno if this is what you mean, but some good stuff anyway!

I honestly didn`t know what he means, the word industrial is so ambiguous, a lot of people call the hardcore - crossbones sound industrial. 3rd from etc.
Then the black polar neckers call the birmingham sound industrial.
then you have the idm crowd calling stuff like motor, hekate, morgenstern etc (ant-zen and their stuff) industrial.
all of which are totally different types of music.
Some people simply use the word industrial to describe anything with metal clanking and a bit of distortion.
Knowing Detfella is a man into a diverse amount of music erring on the gnarly side of things, I thought I`d clarify what he was looking for before pointing him in a direction.
but hey ho, lecture duly noted.

And my point about the ambiguity of the word industrial becomes apparent.
It`s almost as ambigious as the word Techno.
not quite though.

Ok, I see what you were getting at a bit more now, maybe I was hasty in some of what I said in my reply. Still though, surely it's not too hard for us to simplify what the few broad categories of industrial techno are, especially as it's not hardcore or straighter hard techno we're talking about. So: Birmingham, Ant-Zen type, and the Terence Fixmer/Adam X styled stuff... A lot of these people still crossover into making very similar stuff too, but overall there's probably three main 'camps' style wise I guess...
Exactly
woo wooo woo.. call the genre police!
Wetworks, concrete djz? industrial????
I like the guys but they're NOT industrial by any means.
Industrial? The sounds of industry.
A lot of what people are calling industrial is the sound that umek, vath, hell and almost everyone else was playing out circa 1992-1997 and that just got called techno.
Techno IS whatever people call it RIGHT NOW
you picking holes again chris? il fight ya. what i mean is, they have this unique kinda flavour, a kinda grimey crunchie evil eerie kinda sound that I personally associate with the word industrial.
everyone has their own idea of what it is, and of course they're all right- what do i know? how many records do i have pressed? how many big names are playing my stuff? none, there for- i know nothing.

easy Sunil mate, a little OTT there, the term industrial is very ambigious indeed, i would never call the birmingham sound industrial techno, infact ive never heard anyone call it industrial, seriously, i've always just regarded it as uk techno, brum techno at worst
i would of placed alot more of the artists that Fuknut has listed as industrial techno, but granted they are on the more hardcore/core side of things
check out David F's Broken Rules alias, sick hardcore
