I think he means it in the sense of latter-day industrial music. Bands like Current 93, who went through so many evolutions that they gradually migrated further and further away from industrial music, from the abrasive and atonal in Dogs Blood Rising to something more neo-folksy like Thunder Perfect Mind and eventually onto the ambience of Black Ships Ate the Sky.
There's actually quite a few bands that did this. Coil & Nurse with Wound are up there as well.
