Description

Dense with strange rhythms, industrial dance elaborates on the dance potential of the dark, disjointed beats of Industrial pioneers Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire by taking the cacophony of industrial music to the dance floor. The results -- a harsh mix of early industrial, electro and funk -- have found both niche followings and chart success. In the 1980s, bands Front 242 and Front Line Assembly created an extreme form of electro called EBM (Electro Body Music or European Body Music). Industrial dance bands My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Crash Worship have developed underground cult followings for their elaborate performances, while the Art of Noise and Nine Inch Nails gained considerable commercial success.
