How to Write Industrial Lyrics

This link will only be funny to those who've listened to a few industrial music acts. How to Write Industrial Lyrics

My favorite is "Angst", which displays that "I'm cooler than thou" attitude i despise, so prevalent in many music devotees. Sadly, these are typical things that I've heard industrial fans say.

Not sure what "Industrial" music is? Think Nine Inch Nails or maybe Marilon Manson's "Beautiful People" track, which are easy to find though many hXc (hardcore) industrial fans would spit. Industrial bands include Front Line Assembly, Skinny Puppy, KMFDM, Wumpscut. By contrast, EBM is "electronic body music", which is basically like 80's synthpop (eg Depeche Mode, Erasure, Tears For Fears), more melodic and less harsh with proper singing. EBM bands include VNV Nation, Namnambulu and Seabound.

For the record, Canada's Front Line Assembly is one of my alltime favourite bands. See the excellent Mindphaser site. The folks behind FLA are also "Delerium", the 'techno/dance' act and several others. It's partly their openness to other musical styles and versatility which makes me respect them, which i've tried to aim for in my own music and DJing. But mostly because they make absolutely kickin' tunes.
