What the hell happened to the industrial dance scene? Ever since NIN's "Pretty Hate Machine", the whole thing has gone straight into the can. All the cool bands are either dead or using that damn disgusting Pantera/Metallica guitar crap. Forget this new generation of Gravity Kills, Stabbing Westward, and all of the other Ministry/NIN clones. Less guitars, more electronics and found sound. Did anybody see Test Department in '96? NOW THAT'S MORE LIKE IT!! Dennis O'Hare noise@webtv.net

I almost cried when I heard Ministry's new one Filth Pig. Shit why not just copy what Metallica and Slayer were doing 10 years ago....Oooooops... That is what they did.. I get all muddled when I get upset... I have to go sob in the corner now *sniff* Eric

What happened? Industrial music crawled up its own ass and died, and anyone with a good set of ears ended up listening to the music we've been talking about here for the past 3-4 years (or more), that's what. Most all of the people who were on top of things back in Industrial-land are on this mailing list now anyway. Former Industrialists With A Clue[tm] unite. (Can this thread die now, please? Tell me about tomorrow's music, not last decade's) - Greg
