Get the indubitably mug.A genre of music that can be easily summed up as an electronica/rock n roll crossover, its follwers refer to themselves as Industrialists or Rivit Heads.
Originated from the Brittish band Throbbing Gristle who founded the record lable Industrial Records in the late 70's.
TG experimented with college rock and synths, distorting the original music with calming instrumentals and violent mechanical sounds.
Industrial later split into 2 forms: Electronic/Experimental Industrial (very similar to EBMelectronic body music in sound)and Industrial Rock/Metal.
Electronic Industrial can be summed up with VNV nation, a band that use no recognisable guitar and sounds like dark techno with angry/angsty vocals (It must be pionted out that any "True" Rivit Head must love this band even though they are almost dance music and whine more than Emo).
Industrial rock can be summed up by the band KMFDM, they use angry vocals, with political lyrics, heavy guitars mixed well with techno and dance beats.
Industrial has its own subculture that is very closely linked tot he Goth scene.
The America the Industrial scene (researched from visiting many websites) tends to be much more snobby towards the music they lsiten to, whilst the UK scene tends to mix more with the goth scene with less elitism.
Industrial has many sub-genres and cross over genres and cultures that have produced Cyber Goths (Followers of Industrial, EBM and Future Pop and sport UV cloths, hair and acsessories), Uber Rivit Heads (American Elitist Industrial fans who shun most guitar based and mainstream bands Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein and Marilyn Manson for not being "true industrial") and Mansonites (Followers of ONLY mainstream industrial and Nu-metal).

Experimental/Electronic Industrial Bands: Throbbing Gristle, Mesh, Front 242, VNV nation<c.r.a.p.>, Wumpscut and Skinny Puppy (Possibly the most well known Underground Industrial band and seen on the same level by Rivit Heads as Metallica are to Heavy Metal).
Industrial Rock/Metal: KMFDM, MDFMK, Gothminister, Pig, Dkay, Newleydeads.
Mainstream Industrial Rock: Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, Rammstein.
Nu-Industrial: Fear Facktory (not very good).

Get the Bong Induced Stupidity mug.A class of music that manifested in the late 80s during the post punk era and defined by emerging underground bands such as Ministry (pre-heavy metal i.e. Twitch, Land of Rape and Honey) (and other Alien Jourgensen side project bands), Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails, KMFDM, Nitzer Ebb, Front Line Assembly, Front 242, Bigod 20, etc etc... mostly of American and European origins and became more refined by the early 90s. With a telltale trade signature characteristic of using samples of mechanical sounds found in real world industrial work places. Clanging sheet metal, grating circular saw and metallic crash sounds being typical. The drum machine, the sampler, the vocoder and the synth being tools of the business sometimes incorporating distortion amp/guitar as well. In addition the use of samples of well known movie sound bytes originating from old Outer Limits/Twilight Zone, horror movies, old westerns, cult films, etc etc were/are used. At times the pace of the songs are danceable i.e. clubby but at other times it is more of a mosh pit pace experience.
And was pretty much the music of a counter-culture group of stereotypes that were labeled as either punk, death-rockers or alternative; in addition to the anti-racist skinhead types.

Get the Industrial mug.Incubating can either mean sitting in one place for a long time, sitting on top of an item or chilling out.
"Hey! What's up?"
"Nothing much, just incubating on the couch"
Or
"I can't find my car keys! Oh wait, I was incubating them"
