Industrial metal is a type of musical genre that draws from Industrial music and various types of heavy metal . Musically often using repeating guitar riffs,sampling,synthesiser/sequencer, and more than often distorted vocals.
Acts that come to mind include MINISTRY , NINE INCH NAILS ,KMFDM, GODFLESH......even WHITE ZOMBIE,MARILYN MANSON,FEAR FACTORY have used this style at times
MINISTRY Founded 1981 by AL JOURGENSEN. .Originally more of a synth based outfit who became more experimental.but by the late 80s had started to bring a "heavy metal" edge to their music. They found success in the early 90s with the "Psalm 69" album [ Probably the greatest album of this genre IMO ]
MINISTRY made a few albums but split in 2008 , only to reform again in 2011. A brand new album "Relapse" is set for release soon
These tracks are legendary
