Edit: I didn't even know they made industrial until I was looking up the origins of industrial music simply because of that. Now I guess I have to ride the Throbbing Gristle cock like everybody else here.

1. Industrial music is generally nihilistic so it attracts people who appreciate darker things which has some crossover with goth culture.
2. Hot Topic goth stereotypes are the prime "Industrial" demographic.
3. Culture vulture is a stupid cracker rhyme. Avoid those who unironically use the term.
4. Throbbing Gristel ruelz hamborger lady rawr XD

I'm not saying people have to love Throbbing Gristle. All I'm saying is, if you're going to declare yourself a fan of a genre, you should probably at least be aware of the band who coined the name of said genre.

Don't listen to Janzsoon. You have to love Throbbing Gristle.

Myke C Town unironically uses it. So does JpegMafia. Well, usually hip hop uses it. I think it's meant to describe people that use a culture to look cool with out having an actual respect for it. Like Jake Paul. Or goths that love Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails but have no clue who The Cure is. People that use it as a fad. I'm not sure.

And yes, I do have at least respect Throbbing Gristle as a fan of not only industrial music, but what they have inspired to exist.

To me it sounds like another way to call something cliched.

Also Jpegmafia is about 60/40 on the irony/serious ratio so you're gonna have to link up on that track.

Would you consider Herbie Hancock's electro music, like Rockit, to be industrial? Or is it not quite harsh enough?

No, it is not even remotely industrial. The whole point of industrial is that it is anti-music that takes the punk ideal to its logical extreme. Herbie Hancock's electro music is very melodic and grove-driven, the antithesis of what industrial is.

Yesterday, a lady at Walmart was crying because she lost her tax return money and couldn't pay for the stuff she had in her cart.

Plank to the rescue... I gave her $50 since I just found about $1500 in the parking lot.
