I can tolerate just about everything from the 80’s too. :squinting_face_with_tongue:

Actually they do not. Inner Mongolia is a semi autonomous region and governed by law with majority Mongolians. There is industrialization, more prosperity, and generally little desire for separatism.

As for Mongolian throat singing and Mongolian nationalism, here be the Hu

Well, yeah. Showing the horrors of vivisection.

Suburban Volcano Jazz or bust… especially if it’s on the Gregorian chant tango side of the genre.

See? I can make ridiculous stuff up too woot

Like Chris Isaak, but not Chris Isaak.

They never did like the label.

Fear Factory is more industrial metal. Which I think Ministry did better at until they didn’t.

I tired of KMFDM quickly.
Not sure where I’d put Mr. Bungle
NIN was influenced by Skinny Puppy amongst others.
Machines of Loving Grace was good but to me was too much like NIN. BTW I did see NIN open for SP in '88 and was unimpressed until he went back and retooled and released Down In It then PHM. Fabulous album that brought industrial to the mainstream…for a bit.

Throbbing Gristle

Einsturzende Neubauten

Are more representative of “real” industrial. TG even gave it the name.

Loved Fear Factory’s cover of Cars with Gary Numan

I almost forgot Front Line Assembly

I know, sampled guitars.

Having said all that…Skinny Puppy is still my favorire band.

The song that inspired Trent’s Down In It.

Anything that doesn’t suck. I basically sit here in silence.

It changes from day to day, but recently it’s been Midwest Emo.

Disco jazz

COWBELL but also Brit-Rock

Currently Australian Dream Pop (Sunbather) or the bossa nova stylings of Piero Umiliani. But always Prog (Rush, Yes, early Genesis), and 90s alternative. Just depends on the day/hour..

My statement was a little tongue in cheek on China still holding a grudge against Genghis Khan. Yet, while I will admit that I am not current in inner Mongolian and Chinese political relations, I have been a fan of the Hu since 2018 and with that sensitivity, I was aware of 2020 Mongolian protest against Chinese policies to replace the Mongolian language with Mandarin. Before I posted, I checked Google AI “does china restrict the mongolian language” and short answer was, “Yes.” Now, i agree there is nuance to the “Yes” that your reply may be giving. Anyhow I am going to blast some music by the Hu or play Sabaton’s Hordes of Khan.

It’s Trip-Hop for me too! Give me some Massive Attack, Sneaker Pimps, and Thievery Corporation and I’m a happy girl!
