Some fab choices there! TG coined the term 'industrial' and had their own little autonomous record label, truly DIY. Even if you don't like the music they're really worth reading and finding about.
HTDA are named after Coil's first album,and Coil did a few NIN remixes, I'd recommend starting there as their discography is pretty dense and varied, but they are brilliant.
Lustmord is great also, and Chris and Cosey are a bit more on the poppy side of things but I love 'em. Sorry am on my phone so can't post vids at the mo.

Covenant (industrial mixed with club music, from Sweden)
Sara Noxx (from Germany - lots of dark music there)
Cold Cave (dark electropop)
Gatekeeper

I could go on for ever. This style of music is really good because it blurs really easily into the brighter realms of synthpop and electro, into some types of metal, into purer electronic music and into all manner of experimental goodness in the electronica, indie and even classical spheres.

TG take some beating. Not easy to listen to but infinitely rewarding in places.

Also try:

Swans - early stuff is very hardcore, then they went a bit goth / folky but recent album The Seer is a jaw-dropping 2 hour experimental noise fest. Utterly wonderful.

Einsturzende Neubaten - German experimentalists and possibly the first proper "industrial" band (depending on whether you see TG as industrial or not).


Implodes - if you're after somethnig a bit more recent this new(ish) band is pretty good.

A Place To Bury Strangers - lots of Mary Chain style distortion and feedback, particularly in the earlier records.

Haha! Brilliant.

Whitehouse should audition for Britain's Got Talent. The whole dumb f***ing audience would shit themselves.

Some good ones listed. How about Fields of the Nephilim? Elizium is a great album and Visionary Heads is a live DVD, most of the tracks are on youtube.

How could I have forgotten VNV Nation? Experimental EBM synths with strong melodies and lovely lyrics.
I was out at a hard dance/industrial club last night and I'd forgotten how good they were.

Also Apoptygma Berzerk.

Just had to mention this new one from Congo Natty on Vices channel. Takes me back to the raw jungle stuff from the nineties.
