So I've noticed a lot of you "alternative" or "underground" music fans here like a lot of Industrial Metal (Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, NIN, etc.). I'm personally not a big fan of Manson but I love Rob & White Zombie, NIN, and Rammstein. And so I thought maybe I'd give you guys a heads up on a few little known bands in that style who I think are great. Well... one really.


Hanzel und Gretyl is a New Jersey band who write music in this style and do it very well in my opinion. Some of you might not like it even if you like the bands I mentioned because they are very much heavier than any of those other bands. They just came out with a new album called 2012 Zwanzig Zwoelf. Yeah they also have a Germen theme going like Rammstein, exept Rammstein really is Germen lol. I recommend you guys check them out if your into this type of music.

Ahh screw it I'll recommend two more bands that are also great!

The first is Scum of the Earth which is a band started by Mike Riggs who was Rob Zombie's guitarist during Hellbilly Deluxe and The Sinister Urge. His music is very much so in vain of the Hellbilly Deluxe era. Great stuff.

Lastly, Ministry. A band I would hope you guys know. They're the ones who set the stage for this style of music. So.... CHECK THEM OUT!

ministry is ok, and i have heard of scum of the earth. i'm a bit sad to hear that riggs,blasko, and tempesta have all left the zombie camp. i thought their music was great, and they performed it well live. i def. into nin, and rammstein. i have all of their cd's along with manson. i also think kmfdm is another great germen/french industrial metal band. also my life with the thrill kill kult is great too.

thanks for the heads up about zwanzig zwoelf, i'll check em out. see if i like them.

Sure. Zwanzig Zwoelf is a great album I must say.

Yeah I was kinda bummed they left Zombie too but John 5 is an amazing guitarist, one of my favorites so hes in good hands. If you haven't checked out John 5's solo stuff, do so. Thats where he really shows his talent. He's a virtuoso for sure.

KMFDM is cool, not too much my style though. I've never heard Thrill Kill Kult though, I'll have to check'em out.

You should check out The Kovenant too. Their older stuff is Black Metal but their newer stuff is Industrialized with a cool Black Metal twist.

No, they don't like Manson, they forgot the "i" they met they would like a Mansion. Hope this clears it all up. They like Mansion!
