NIN were also influenced by EBM, an electronic music movement in 80s Germany, that's an interesting genre in and of itself. "Pretty Hate Machine" is like EBM if it were invented by Americans. "An Ignorant Guide to EBM" would make a great companion piece to this video.

Man, I am kinda bummed out that Psalm 69 by Ministry didn't get a mention, because they really blended the metal element into Industrial cause of a bit of Speed Metal is used. But still happy you finally did a Industrial video
Quick minor correction: "20 Jazz Funk Greats" is not Throbbing Gristle's debut album. They had already released "The Second Annual Report" and "D.o.A: the Third and Final Report," with the former being their debut but not their first album (they first recorded "The First Annual Report" but scrapped it and went with releasing "The Second Annual Report" instead).
@ned_interrobang I got Monte Cazzaza's To Mom On Mother's Day on vinyl at a used record store in the 90s. It sounds so much better than any version I've heard on CD, like the Worst of cd has no low end. It's funny how Monte Cazzaza had a comeback album come out in the 2000s with lustmord on the record. Those RE/search books were great.

@@masterseal0418 No disrespect to Celldweller, but he can't namedrop every single popular band or project. Being as early and influential as KMFDM should warrant a mention, though.
I'm surprised when diving into the history and inspiration for industrial that you didn't mention the modernist movement in the newly-established Soviet Union (1920s) as being a part of it, I don't know if it counts as industrial at all but Arseny Avraamov's 'Symphony Of Factory Sirens' gives me the feeling of being related to this genre of music.
There's a lot of interesting developments in music prior to Industrial that could be seen as part of a lineage. Luigi Russolo was an Italian futurist who not only painted, but wrote a manifesto called "The Art of Noise," and created his own musical instruments for his compositions. Musique Concrete, noise, EBM (Electronic Body Music), no wave, ambient music (particularly Lou Reed's MMM), drone metal (early Earth records and Sunn O)))), certain classical minimalist compositions (Steve Reich's early tape loops, like "Come Out"). There's a lot of really interesting music out there that explores the line between noise and music. I recommend checking a lot of it out. It really opened my eyes to just how wide the possibilities are in music, and some of it effects me in ways traditional music cannot.
if anyone is interested in a more in-depth/detailed look at the genre, I 100% recommend you check out Trash Theory's video on industrial (Nine Inch Nails and how Industrial became pop) though it is abit longer and less joking about the subject matter
NIce one Coolea! I started with german NDH and Marilyn Manson (discovered later about Ministry and KMFDM)at the brink of 90s which is a part of industrial-metal side of industrial music, soon fell in love with Skinny Puppy and Frontline Assembly, discovered deeper and earlier stuff later (Throbbing Gristle, Front 242, Nurse with wound, Einsturzende Neubauten) but somehow never really liked NIN and Reznor. And Laibach deserves larger segment in this vid, they are hmm pretty unique band.
Skinny Puppy was one of those bands I got into randomly when I was maybe 12 or 13 after seeing VIVISectVI on a shelf. Figured why not, it's only $5. For years I thought it was dog shit but boy did it ever click when I got older. One of my favorite bands ever since.
I hosted Nivek Ogre in my home in the 90's (long story). He was incredibly charming but very soft spoken. Like the exact opposite of his stage presence. Seems to be a recurring theme.
@@mistertaxes Static-X is industrial nu-metal along with Rob Zombie. It's still too nu-metal to be considered industrial, and Wayne Static himself said the band was more akin to "evil disco".
I've been an industrial fangirl since first listening to KMFDM in October-November 2021, and discovered many other artists from that day forth. I'll plan on my music career, by introducing the dark-electronic underground in my hometown by the artist title, Alraune(the German surname of mandragora). Most industrial artists are from Europe, and the genre existed since the european electronic dance music boom of the 70s-80s. Aggrotech, darkwave, electro, dark electro, industrial rock, industrial metal, industrial pop, noise, and alt metal are some of it's subsidiaries. Skinny Puppy has to be my favorite artist from Canada due to their music providing nightmare fuel, but they're now retired. On the other hand, industrial has become a niche for goths and the typical "rivet-heads" since the 90s-early 2000s, but most of these artists still exist since the new millenium. Something I appreciate the most.
Industrial music originally came out of the Punk Rock, Post Punk, New Wave, Goth Rock, Synth PoP and New Romantic late 70’s and 80’s bands. And I’m not a fan of any of those 80’s genres. Bands like Throbbing Gristle, Skinny Puppy, and Killing Joke all started the Industrial music scene out of the Punk Rock, Post Punk, Goth Rock, New Wave movement of the late 70’s and 80’s. By the late 1980’s a band called Nine Inch Nails would show up and change the course of Industrial music. In 1992 with Grunge in full swing and 80’s music and culture being out of trend and everyone wanting to move away from the 80’s. Nine Inch Nails would move Industrial music away from its 80’s Punk and Goth roots into a more 90’s style Grunge influenced genre. Into the 90’s Industrial music would become a full on subculture tagging along onto the success of the Grunge bands at the time while also becoming influenced in Sex and Fetish culture of BDSM. So in the 90’s the Industrial music scene became like a Techno version of Grunge but for people that love Fetishes and Bondage, and going to Fetish Rave clubs. And because of that Industrial and Rave music would intermingle In the night clubs during the 90’s. And while that was going on another late 80’s band in Ministry would become a full on Metal band in the 90’s, mixing Industrial music with Metal. Paving the way for other Industrial Metal bands in White Zombie, Fear Factory, and Rammstein. When Nu Metal started to emerge in the late 90’s, some bands tapped into that Industrial Metal sound with the Nu-Metal style bounce riffing, bands like Static X, Dope, Mushroomhead, Ultraspank, and Spineshank would all incorporate there Industrial influences into Nu-Metal. And the the Internet Age came into existence into the 21st Century and the more technological advanced we got into the 00’s the less and less we started to see these Industrial acts, which is rather ironic if you look at it.
you sum up industrial really good altho you did skip over how industrial was made more extreme at certain points like with how william bennet had made power electronics
@@perlundgren7797 Well what I mean by Industrial coming out of those genres is the 3 bands that started the Industrial sound in Throbbing Gristle, Skinny Puppy and Killing Joke were apart that Punk, Post Punk, New Wave and Goth movement of the late 70’s and 80’s. Then Nine Inch Nails and Ministry would arrive onto the scene in the late 80’s and both bands would completely change the directions of Industrial music into the 90’s. Nine Inch Nails would tag along side the success of the Grunge bands, and Ministry would become a full on Metal band into the 90’s.
Those old ministry albums & NIN were some of the most intelligent and well produced music ever made. I’m a musician since 8 and producer/ sound design. I listen to all genres. Those albums are at the very top for me. I probably own over 5k records.
Dude industrial has constantly evolved and a huge part of it is that the rules that seem to shape popular music are thrown away and things that are normally uncomfortable to hear are the starting point for songs. throbbing gristle and monte cazzaza were the very first to use the term industrial to describe what they did but even TG by the end of their run as a band were creating stuff that was completely different from their early recordings and resembled something more like traditional music genres. People also leave out how influential Chris Carter was to the sound of TG as he designed and made many of the effects units and synthesizers they used.
SPK’s first two albums are actually super abrasive, before any of the funk/synth-pop stuff they moved into. Leichenschrei is REQUIRED listening, though you’ll have to find it on TH-cam.
Yep, anyone who listens to industrial music needs to listen to Leichenschrei at least once because I view it as a more accessible variant of old school/"true" industrial.
There’s a Folkways record from the 60’s( I think, maybe early 70’s) called Sounds of the Junkyard that definitely deserves a mention in early influences on Industrial.
I saw KMFDM a few days ago (Saint Andrew's Hall). Someone brought a fire extinguisher and held it like a baby. Also, there was a strobe light aimed in my face for the entire show.
JG Thirlwell's earlier albums were very closed to industrial but in the same time he didn't refer his works to this genre. Anyway, his "Theme from Pigdom Come", "Pigswill" and some video performances with Lydia Lunch and pig heads definitely inspired Trent Reznor to write "Pig" song from Downward Spiral.
I actually laughed out loud at Coil being referenced as a point in which industrial adopted more pop sensibilities...Just shows how batshit the genre was when Coil are the reasonable ones hjahaha
It's awesome that someone finally recognized SPK as an important piece in the puzzle that is INDUSTRIAL the Australian input always gets left out... what with Foetus, SPK, SNOG and a few others... we were there too
No hunting lodge mention? ): I feel like we skipped out on alot of early American Industrial. but it does say "An Ignorant guide". Great Video as always man keep up the good work!
Some artist recommendations for this genre: Esplendor Geométrico, Disharmonic Ballet, Doom (Japan), Chrome (Damon Edge and Helios Creed), Programming The Psychodrill, Die Krupps, O! Kult (Yugoslavia), Static X, Dope, Patareni, Mертвые Хиппи, Lard, Pig, KMFDM, Orphan (Shane M. Green), Breathcontrol, Powerman 5000, Silver Apples, Hanzel und Gretyl, Front 242, Horskh, Plexi, S.N.O.T (Hungary, not to be confused with the nü metal band), TISM (This Is Serious Mom), United States, Author & Punisher, Big Black and Foetus of course Yes, some of these might be or even are generally considered noise rock, but who cares, if you like one you’ll probably like other I think the difference is mostly just in the definition - industrial does not have to be rock, also “industrial” in rock music suggest the presence of electronics, not just lot of distortion.
Another one would be Chu Ishikawa or his band Der Eisenrost from Japan, used alot of makeshift instruments live (including a electric saw grinding against pieces of metal).
Industrial was the first music genre I was obsessed with. Remember listened to Mechanical Animals in 98 then The Fragile in 99 then Ministry then Skinny Puppy. When internet torrents arrived I threw a party downloading FLA, Godflesh, Killing Joke, Throbbing, etc
Nice video! If I could recommend one thing, it would be to provide examples for different bands and sounds. It can be hard to visualize what each evolution of the genre sounds like.
one of your best videos. right in these times i've been enjoying and exploring industrial a lot, it was very interesting to watch all the way through. love the research even beneath the most known bands. keep up the great work!
An image about industrial or just NIN was from ytmnd that played a sample from sunspot with an image of reznor mixing cake batter with the word genius over it
It might be of interest to mention that the name "Einstürzende Neubauten" translates to "collapsing new-builds", which fit their construction site antics quite well.
Honestly, every time I'm waiting for a long distance train I feel the urge to grab a microphone and just record the bright screams of the brakes and the long, rising howl of the starting train. Some of the inverters play an actual musical scale while starting up as they AC/DC and DC/AC converters have to match the torque and power consumption of the motor required to get the whole thing moving smoothly. There are a few recording on youtube, but most have a lot of background noise from fans or passengers. I guess ears are more sensitive to such details and we are good at ignoring the less important aspects of a soundscape, but the microphone picks up almost everything, intentional or not.
I'd say they're on the edge of industrial, idk if I'd consider them that or not. I think it depends on the specific song though because some of their stuff lines up pretty well
Nice video. You missed Luigi Russolo and futurist art movement music... 1914... He inventend his own equipement to repeoduce harsh noises back then, he called them "intonarumori" (literrally "noisetuner")
While my main favs are Rammstein and Godflesh, two different types of industrial, it's great to see Author and Punisher (which is also my fav) in a modern do a bit of both noisy and musical. Plus dude uses a lot of old technology to make the music. People should check out the vid were he uses a bunch of masks as instruments

(I played too much Need For Speed)
My wish has been granted.
The first sponsorship ad i've watched since like 2010, what a banger
YOU FINALLY DID AN INDUSTRIAL VIDEO‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ EVERYBODY SAY TY COOLEA🥁🛢️🛠️⚙️⛓️⛓️💥🔓💣
It would be awesome if you would do Martial Industrial and/or Neo Folk at some point. Triarii and Rome (band) are awesome.
I second this
I was hoping you’d do one on Industrial! Excellent breakdown of the sprawling genre
I saw KMFDM a few days ago (Saint Andrew's Hall). Someone brought a fire extinguisher and held it like a baby.
Also, there was a strobe light aimed in my face for the entire show.
My favorite music series dropped a new episode. Let’s go Coolea!
JG Thirlwell walked so Trent Reznor can run
Don’t forget the fact that JG Thirlwell was the same guy who also did music for The Venture Bros. and that alone is based
Trent Reznor has never run a mile in his life
@@j.2512🤣🤣
I believe JGT disapproves of his work being associated with the "i-word"
JG Thirlwell's earlier albums were very closed to industrial but in the same time he didn't refer his works to this genre. Anyway, his "Theme from Pigdom Come", "Pigswill" and some video performances with Lydia Lunch and pig heads definitely inspired Trent Reznor to write "Pig" song from Downward Spiral.
3:15 - Look at how that dude with the spinner hat stands out!
my first exposure to industrial was the Bionicle Heroes DS soundtrack, although i didn't know it at the time.
Was looking for a song that sounded like a musically timed industrial factory but couldn’t find one on my own that sounded like what I imagined.
I actually laughed out loud at Coil being referenced as a point in which industrial adopted more pop sensibilities...Just shows how batshit the genre was when Coil are the reasonable ones hjahaha
It's awesome that someone finally recognized SPK as an important piece in the puzzle that is INDUSTRIAL the Australian input always gets left out... what with Foetus, SPK, SNOG and a few others... we were there too
Hell yeah my favorite genre
No hunting lodge mention? ): I feel like we skipped out on alot of early American Industrial. but it does say "An Ignorant guide". Great Video as always man keep up the good work!
Just clicked on the vid. If skinny puppy isn't mentioned I'll be very ANGEREEE😤😤😤😤
Edit: Skinny Puppy MENTIONED!!!!!
I dont really like industrial but i love NIN
Reznor is one of my favorite artists
Some artist recommendations for this genre:
Esplendor Geométrico, Disharmonic Ballet, Doom (Japan), Chrome (Damon Edge and Helios Creed), Programming The Psychodrill, Die Krupps, O! Kult (Yugoslavia), Static X, Dope, Patareni, Mертвые Хиппи, Lard, Pig, KMFDM, Orphan (Shane M. Green), Breathcontrol, Powerman 5000, Silver Apples, Hanzel und Gretyl, Front 242, Horskh, Plexi, S.N.O.T (Hungary, not to be confused with the nü metal band), TISM (This Is Serious Mom), United States, Author & Punisher, Big Black
and Foetus of course
Yes, some of these might be or even are generally considered noise rock, but who cares, if you like one you’ll probably like other
I think the difference is mostly just in the definition - industrial does not have to be rock, also “industrial” in rock music suggest the presence of electronics, not just lot of distortion.
Also Foetus! (Australia)
@@youtubeuserdan4017damn, that is a great one I forgot
VTM Bloodlines soundtrack
@@youtubeuserdan4017heeeeello operator gimmie no-man’s land!
Another one would be Chu Ishikawa or his band Der Eisenrost from Japan, used alot of makeshift instruments live (including a electric saw grinding against pieces of metal).
Coolea thumbnails always go insanely hard
my. brother in jesus they the only reason i don't share these videos wit anyone
bussin fr fr no cap skibidi
I've forever associated NIN with that one tweet about Trent Reznor in the recording booth rubbing his nipples.
Industrial was the first music genre I was obsessed with. Remember listened to Mechanical Animals in 98 then The Fragile in 99 then Ministry then Skinny Puppy. When internet torrents arrived I threw a party downloading FLA, Godflesh, Killing Joke, Throbbing, etc
I'd actually include the Doctor Who theme in all this, with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop experimenting with recording sounds and reversing the tape
Nice video! If I could recommend one thing, it would be to provide examples for different bands and sounds. It can be hard to visualize what each evolution of the genre sounds like.
i fucking love the sound of rusty pipes
Genesis P-Orridge from throbbing gristle deserves a video of their own man, their story is wild
Genesis lore could fill an entire playlist
I was kinda expecting mick gordon to be briefly mentioned at the end of
Fuck I love Mick Gordon
7:20 Ehmmm... Achtually the debut album of Throbbing Gristle was Second Annual Report from 1977🤓
Hot Take: Second Annual Report > 20 Jazz Funk Greats
About disagreements: I seldom agree to much of what you say. But you're a master at making me laugh. Bravo Sir
one of your best videos. right in these times i've been enjoying and exploring industrial a lot, it was very interesting to watch all the way through. love the research even beneath the most known bands. keep up the great work!
An image about industrial or just NIN was from ytmnd that played a sample from sunspot with an image of reznor mixing cake batter with the word genius over it
Another fine ontological analysis of music genres
your editing has really improved
honestly happy to see coolea doing well enough to have sponsorships :)
1:13 your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries
It might be of interest to mention that the name "Einstürzende Neubauten" translates to "collapsing new-builds", which fit their construction site antics quite well.
Making a slightly different noise is my jam!
As soon as Pierre Schaeffer has been brought up I knew this video is gonna be good!
My industrial heart rejoices 🖤
What. No Fear Factory love?!
Hey look, the Goblin revealed his true form!
Honestly, every time I'm waiting for a long distance train I feel the urge to grab a microphone and just record the bright screams of the brakes and the long, rising howl of the starting train. Some of the inverters play an actual musical scale while starting up as they AC/DC and DC/AC converters have to match the torque and power consumption of the motor required to get the whole thing moving smoothly. There are a few recording on youtube, but most have a lot of background noise from fans or passengers. I guess ears are more sensitive to such details and we are good at ignoring the less important aspects of a soundscape, but the microphone picks up almost everything, intentional or not.
Would Chrystal castles qualify as industrial? They hacked electronics to get sounds out of them
I'd say they're on the edge of industrial, idk if I'd consider them that or not. I think it depends on the specific song though because some of their stuff lines up pretty well
Nice video.
You missed Luigi Russolo and futurist art movement music... 1914... He inventend his own equipement to repeoduce harsh noises back then, he called them "intonarumori" (literrally "noisetuner")
No mention of the tiny underground band Ramnstein?
Cover electronic body music at some point
While my main favs are Rammstein and Godflesh, two different types of industrial, it's great to see Author and Punisher (which is also my fav) in a modern do a bit of both noisy and musical. Plus dude uses a lot of old technology to make the music. People should check out the vid were he uses a bunch of masks as instruments
Been waiting for this video ❤❤❤❤
