Yes, they're definitely metal. I generally hate the way people misuse the label "industrial" but if there's one band that really could be described as industrial metal, it's Godflesh. I also read a review of one of their albums a long time ago that described them as "slow motion death metal". I always liked that.

Swans were certainly up there. Here's "Raping a Slave" from 1984:

i agree with Swans but i don't think Christian Death should be ignored for darkness and 80s

It was neither the darkest (there was a lot of black and death metal going on at the time) nor the most ground breaking since Korn's sound was basically a mix between Ratm,Faith No More and Primus. Just check out songs like "Bullet In The Head" and "My Name is Mud". However it was a very solid album and countless other bands later on tried to copy Korn's musical recipe without getting it right.
