[edit] Notable flirtations?

For the record everyone, Alice Cooper, Faster Pussycat, and WASP have NEVER done anything remotly simmiler to Industrial Rock. As for David Bowie and (less so) Gary Numan, they have briefly exprimented with elements of the genre, but still that does not make it appropraite to list them under a page that is for actual industrial Rock artist, rather notable reference of this matter belong on the main article.

Yes they have.. and they are mentioned in the original Industrial rock article, apart from Faster Pussycat who aren't mentioned, but did flirt with Industrial rock on "Between the Valley of the Ultra Pussy".. the vocalist is now even in an Industrial rock band; the Newlydeads.. try researching first before claiming bands have "never" done something. - Deathrocker 12:03, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

I dispute the statement because I never heard it expressed outside of here, and I would like to see an external source on those claims. And regarding Alice Coop, I have heard, and at one point owned, Brutal Planet and Dragontown, and i don't consider that Industrial rock. All this aside, my primary problem with this section is that I don't believe that it is relevant to the article, not whether or not it is factually actuate. Avador

Of course it is relevent, these are notable, world wide famous artists who have experimented with THIS genres stylings... it is explained on most of those artists pages which are already linked in the article, as well as that.. all you have to do is fire up Google.com and make the searches yourself. And you will find results in abundance. - Deathrocker 21:17, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added Artists

Marilyn Manson (Their wiki states Industrial Rock and a google search will show enough results to garner it so) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.52.15.252 (talk • contribs) 21:36, September 14, 2006 (UTC)

Why is MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE on the list of industrial rock? They're not anything like industrial rock!! Also I think Marilyn Manson should be taken off. He's a joke. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Winryrockbell (talk • contribs) 01:07, September 16, 2006 (UTC)

I disagree about Manson. 1 to call such an artist a joke is foolish. 2 he should go under the some industrial and not pure. But he does deal with a background in it. Its obvious in his Music. As for MSI...maybe can go under industrial, but its a very thin line there. They do enough electronic work, but i feel they dont represent the scene at all or their followers. should be in the some industrial and not the full industrial. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.163.100.135 (talk • contribs) 02:43, September 21, 2006 (UTC)

I propose adding Nocturne, XEO3 (when I create the page), and Blood to the list. I know Nocturne is listed as Industrial Metal a lot of the time, but they definently have a Hard Rock edge to them. Blood isn't strictly an Industrial Rock band, having their roots in Visual Kei, but it is definently an element in more than half of their songs. JanderVK

[edit] Bands aren't ROCK

This is a list of industrial rock bands, correct? Unless I am mistaken... Aslan Faction, Icon of Coil, Feindflug, Infekktion and God Module- as well as several others -have never had a guitar in a single song. Unless someone can dig up a long lost EP or something, I'll be removing bands which aren't industrial rock but just plain -industrial-. There are some bands which are questionable in that their band page lists them as not being rock but I've never heard it myself; it'd be nice if someone could check those out and make sure they're in fact industrial -rock-. Emphasis on -rock-. And lastly, someone should either nix the red links (it says NOTABLE bands at the top of the page) or make pages for them. As I don't know the majority of the red linked bands myself, I'm not going to do either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.198.192 (talk • contribs) 09:20, July 19, 2007 (UTC)

As far as the redlinked entries go, you are absolutely right. No artists should be listed here that do not have a corresponding standalone Wikipedia article. As such, I have pruned the list for now, and entries can be re-added as articles are created. -- Satori Son 14:22, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

There seems to be bands there that are also on the industrial metal list. As industrial metal is a less inclusive genre than industrial rock, bands that are on both lists will be deleted from the rock list. If someone wants to help clean up bands that are most definitely not industrial metal and shove them into the rock list, that would be greatly appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.165.78.136 (talk) 13:53, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mortiis

I took Mortiis off of the "flirting" list and listed under the main list because his current inception is quite Industrial Rock... JanderVK (talk) 03:50, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
