Puppy's one of the only industrial artists from those days that still drops
my jaw. Meat Beat Manifesto, too. Nobody's really done it like that since.
Renegade Soundwave also falls into this category for me, but I wouldn't
consider it industrial.
Rape and Honey comes close, still can't decide about 242 (too many positive
associations to be objective).
Can I get a shout out for Severed Heads?
Along these lines, anybody interested in checking out some new industrial
should listen to Kill Memory Crash on Ghostly. It's the first fresh stuff
I've heard for a while. Perhaps the beginning of a renaissance a la
electroclash? Certainly worthy of it...
big ups to the late 80's Medusa's posse! Those all-ages nights were
certainly an eye opener for an ignorant lad from the suburbs...
