Review by donnacha Aug 06, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Ahhh, 1993 - the year that "industrial" broke through to the mainstream. All it took was Nine Inch Nails and Ministry to break through and suddenly a whole genre was redefined, much to the annoyance of many. Industrial died in 1982 when Industrial Records ended and all that came after was post-industrial (including the Electronic Body Music scene). That is, until somebody somewhere decided that it was a name that should be revived. Cleopatra released the first "Industrial Revolution" compilation in the States and "Hot Wired Monstertrux" came out on a major label in Europe, lumping the widest range yet of different bands together under the "industrial" label for a new generation of fans and the arguments and disagreements rage to this day. Are Sheep on Drugs, Front 242 and Meat Beat Manifesto really the same style of music?
