    Lex always gets it. Industrial Metal is very "machinery" sounding in nature. The best part about it is that Trent Reznor writes and records all the instuments for the records and then has a touring band. You guys recently reacted to the band Filter and their lead singer was a touring guitarist in NIN before he formed Filter. Trent Reznor is a musical genius and a great overall musician. He also produces a lot of other artists records, across many genres. He was the producer of the Crow soundtrack as well, which is one of the greatest soundtracks of all-time. You're also right Brad, this song and album came out in 1989. Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails are still around and touring to this day.

  • @MRoyClark
    @MRoyClark Před 2 lety +5

    Yeah, this was called Industrial Music. And "that 80s sound" that you are referring to is probably "Synthpop". A great, popular example of Industrial at its most commercial would be "People Are People" by Depeche Mode (1984/US#14). They were a Synthpop act who dabbled in Industrial Music in the mid-90s.
    As far as when to subdivide decades musically, the 80s really did kick off in 10979, but the 90s didn't really have a distinct music al identity until 1992, when Nirvana changed Rock overnight and Dr. Dre changed Hip-Hop overnight. New Jack Swing and Heavy Metal died a slow death in the 90s as Grunge and G-Funk took over. And that's when Industrial Music morphed toward Industrial Metal, too. Previously, it was more of a cousin to the whole Synthpop/Postpunk/Goth thing, but in the 90s it became one of the only hip places for Metal to exist in the margins. But yeah, musically, the early 90s were full of leftover ideas from the late 80s, like New Jack Swing, Hair Metal, 80s Popstars, Pop House, Indie Dance, and Goth. By the mid-90s, most of those genres were dead or on life support, replaced by Gangsta Rap, Alternative Rock, 90s R&B stars, Eurobeat, Britpop, Indie Rock, and Electronica. And Nine Inch Nails moved more toward Heavy Rock and Guitar sounds for most of the 90s, and further away from the machine samples and synthesizers after "Head Like a Hole' and their early stuff.

    Lex makes another good point. The sounds we identify with a specific decade tends to bleed over into the beginning of the next. A lot of what we think of as '50s sounds were actually '60s. A lot of those '70s sounds continued into the '80s.

My first three tapes ever were GNR (Appetite for Destruction), Faith No More (The Real Thing), and the album this song is on: NIN (Pretty Hate Machine). Terrible Lie and Down In It were both great songs on this album, too. NIN is amazing live as well. I prefer live videos either from Woodstock or during their touring between 2005 and 2007 when they had Josh Freese on drums and Aaron North on lead guitar. GREAT energy!

    Saw NIN on the first Lolapalooza tour in 1991. Grunge hadn't broken out yet. So most of those bands on the bill were still considered underground at the time. They were still touring Pretty Hate Machine. This was before a majority of the world had any idea who NIN were. Was crazy how fast and how much they blew up when grunge hit.

Check out mid/late 80s Ministry, Thrill Kill Kult, Cabaret Voltaire, Psychic TV, Greater than One, Revolting Cocks (yes, really). It's a wild rabbit hole to dive into.

    “It’s like a blurred line,” says Brad. Me, “YES!,” but it also depends on the genre, some genres are on an upswing or a downswing or plateauing. For instance: Punk, that’s 1977, right? But it’s already on a downward, ebbing away by 1980.
    Post-Punk bands, despite the genre’s name, coincided with Punk in 1977-Siouxsie & The Banshees and Joy Division being two of the most famous of the genre, and direct responses to Punk. But some bands that are well-known contributors to Post-Punk, like Pere Ubu already existed by ‘77 and took inspiration from genres like Musique Concrete, (an Industrial subgenre-I don’t think “Industrial” had been labeled that yet. Most genres get named by the music press, some bozo writes an article and uses the term “NuJazz,” and then another bozo writes an article using “NuMetal,” and so on.)
    Nine Inch Nails’ debut “Head Like A Hole,” released in 1989, and at the same time “Feurio!,” by the German band Einstürzende Neubauten is also released, off their 5th studio album, Haus der Lüge. Einstürzende Neubauten, (“Collapsing New Buildings,” in English,) is perhaps the most famous band out of the Industrial scene, pre-Nine Inch Nails/aside from Nine Inch Nails. But, perhaps, the most prolific Industrial band is born out of a middle-of-nowhere city in the north of England in 1975, Throbbing Gristle. Though this band has released about as many albums as Neubauten, TG has spawned new projects and bands out of its own members and its inspiration. This is where we introduce you to the band Coil, as well as others, PsychicTV being probably the most popular.
    Finally, Foetus. Cannot talk about Industrial without bringing up the man who scoffs at that genre label and rails against what I just did by assigning it to him, J.G. Thirlwell. Thirlwell, the man who brought you the soundtrack for The Venture Bros. is also a key figure in Industrial music, (he may also be the most talented and diverse figure in the scene as well. Some of these acts bang pots & pans because that’s all they’re capable of doing while others do it as an extension of what they can already do, Thirlwell is of the latter.)

    Grammy Awards and Academy Awards are just some of the honours Trent Reznor has received. The man has the musical chops of a modern day Beethoven and the discography that proves it. This is a rabbit hole you do not want to miss. Lex was right when she said the “cusp of the future” because Trent turned out to be the genius that 1989 foretold. And the man is still as relevant today as he was back then. Check out Woodstock 94 for a taste of NIИ live. It will blow your hair back.

    Pretty Hate Machine is a fantastic album! I finally got to see NIN live a few years ago when they were in Boston and they were awesome!. I had to wait 10 hours in line because they only wanted to sell tickets at the venue so the aftermarket ticket business's couldn't by all the tickets up. I ended up seeing them back to back nights and they had 2 different set lists which is uncommon from most bands on a tour.
