Mysticum.  different from the others mentioned - old school black metal with pounding drum machines.  one of the best and most overlooked of the classic norwegian bands.

I guess I forgot something that strays pretty close to the "industrial-meets-metal" style in the band Wolvserpent (formerly Pussygutt). Their releases are a kind of submerged funeral doom under violin and synth loops and weird samples of stuff...like, as i was hoping to find, if Megaptera or Inade made doom metal...

I recommend Axis of Perdition for those interested in the less "jack hammer" style of industrial metal.

Thank you for the mention; as it happens, we have a new album out next Monday called "Tenements (Of The Anointed Flesh)". It's more of a straight metal album though which may not hit the spot as far as this thread is concerned. Conversely, the previous album "Urfe" is mostly industrial with a predominant spoken word presence (it's regularly referred to as an audio-book with bells on by industrial-ignorant metalheads) but may not have a great deal to offer forum users here that they can't get elsewhere. The album Sky Burial quoted is probably the closest to a balanced symbiotic relationship between the different sonic ingredients.

I'm not too good a salesman; better to talk straight.

and if you don,t mind "ebm" in the front 242 sense of the word, swamp terrorists are always fun.

Iugula-Thor "the wheel of process" 12" is one of my all time favorite "industrial-metal" recordings.
If you have only heard the bands PE works (Bloodlust, Jinx, many compialtions), or noise works (GROSS, OEC,..) give still try to this:

Unfortunately just the a-side. It combines the atmosphere of religious spiritual music, "CMI" era dark ambient, with sepultura sampling (hah!) industrial metal assaults. It's more industrial than it is metal, but with vocal style and heavy metal guitars in mix, perfect in my opinion.  "industrial metal" is much more audible in the b-side hits "Propeller Sodom Lucifer" and "Pigskull Loudspeaker"!
One quite similar track can be found on nearly perfect Tesco release "Assholes", which seems always to be available for cheap (Finnish can check out 2nd hand bin on Sarvilevyt!), but I rate it high!

I think Iugula-Thor would require topic of its own. Band with pretty long history, with plenty of diversity in their discography, and majority of it - unique!

totally agree.
there were rumours of new stuff. I have helped them live in the first OEC Post Industrial Congress. Top notch people.
Wheel of the process is underrated and definitely would deserve more attention. I consider it one of the milestones of those years and was perfect both in sounds than imagery.

Skin Chamber was another industrial metal band. A project by Controlled Bleeding members. The first harsh noise track I heard was Swallowing Scrap metal by Skin Chamber.

Candiru could probably be included in this genre, too. The debut album was pretty varied and haven't aged that well IMO. In early '90s it was something new and exciting but later when I got more into industrial I found so much stuff that was way better.

Never read this 'zine, don't know anything about it, but there might be something worthwhile there amidst all the "cyber" bands: http://www.industrializedmetal.com/ - if only for the "F**k'em all" compilations free for download and the cringe-worthy "dance metal" tag...

The song Assholes is such a classic. Nothing Metal at all but so fucking top notch it is close to Ravensbrück as one of my fav PE songs of all time. And you can get Assholes for 5 dollars at discogs...

I guess Ministry is not of the taste of the board members or perhaps not "industrial" enough?(I'll say is more industrial than the already mentioned Nailbomb, for example)"Psalm 69", "The mind is a terrible thing to taste"... excellent albums IMO.

m.

"The mind is a terrible..." and "Psalm 69" are great albums

Another band that released fine industrial metal is Red Harvest, and their side-project Dunkelheit.

DODHEIMSGARD - 666 International was much more "industrial" than anything else they'd done..  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QH6yWD9WuE&feature=related

holy shit, can't believe i forgot them, but Black Sun from Glasgow.

incredible stuff reminiscent of Godflesh and early Swans, totally nasty. 

Haven't really delved into their newest, but the Paralyser 12" on At War With False Noise is a keeper. Production on the A-side starts out rough, but gets better.  The b-side is merciless pounding sludge-industrial.

SKY BURIAL

MARLINSPIKE. Malaysian band blending industrial/ambient/metal. Been around for 20 years.
