Industrial dance

Industrial dance music is a North American alternative term for electronic body music and electro-industrial music. Fans who are associated with this music scene, refer to themselves as rivetheads.

In general, "industrial dance" is characterized by its "electronic beats, symphonic keyboard lines, pile-driver rhythms, angst-ridden or sampled vocals, and cyberpunk imagery".[1][2]

Since the mid-1980s,[3] the term "industrial dance" has been used to describe the music of Cabaret Voltaire (early 1980s),[4][5] early Die Krupps,[6] Portion Control,[7] The Neon Judgement,[6] Clock DVA,[8] Nitzer Ebb,[9][10] Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly,[11][12][13] Front 242,[2][6][10][14] Ministry,[15] KMFDM,[16][17][18] Yeht Mae,[8] Meat Beat Manifesto, Manufacture,[19] Nine Inch Nails,[20][15][21] My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult,[22] Leæther Strip[23] or early Spahn Ranch.[24]

In March 1989, Spin Magazine presented an one-paged article about the industrial dance movement in Canada and the U.S.[19]

2010s

In the 2010s a revival in industrial dance music occurred with the rise of Witch House and Witch House related groups. Artists such as Zola Jesus, Sevdaliza, Nurgul Jones, and MachineGirl are examples of revived dance music with industrial and transgressive themes. Industrial dance music has seen a greater revival within Russia and Eastern Europe, more prominent within youth culture there.
