Best Industrial Songs of All Time

These are easily the best industrial songs of all time, whether it be industrial metal rock or electronica it doesn't really matter here they are.
The Top Ten
Coma White - Marilyn Manson
Closer - Nine Inch Nails

This song is a very powerful addition to Industrial Music all around. It, along with the rest of the album, deals with desire, addiction, and is a purely amazing combination of beats and sounds to make an industrial anthem.

The first industrial song I heard, I still listen to it today. The remix "Closer to God" is better, but the original is still awesome.

This song has something. Watch the video. The beat is perfect to have sex to! And it becomes more and more powerful.

Feuer Frei - Rammstein

BEST BAND EVER! Their song lyrics are dark but yet give you a sense that if you think about those things, you aren't the only ones! I don't care if they're German. It's perfect metal with techno!

While I am a massive Manson/NIN fan, Rammstein have the perfect industrial sound, in my opinion. Perfect balance of metal and electronica.

Rammstein at their best, I love the start, I love the voice, I love the lows, the highs, and most importantly, when they enter with the drums... Bang Bang.

Guilty - Gravity Kills

An incredible band with a fantastic sound! I got to meet these guys when they got started. I've been a fan since. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't have them playing.

While they have a loyal fan base, it would be nice to see the size of that base if they had more airplay. I truly hope they bless us with another album. These guys know who made them famous, and for that, Gravity Kills gives much respect.

They love their fans as much as the fans love them. I truly think of them as my brothers!

GK and SW are two of my favorite bands. Both of their top songs (Guilty and Save Yourself respectively) are far from their best, in my opinion. In my opinion, their second most popular songs are both far better (Enough and Shame respectively).

Both bands get my vote for top-notch industrial bands - they both have tons of good stuff most people are missing out on!

N.W.O. - Ministry
Rock is Dead - Marilyn Manson

Okay, so this song will be debated. However, here are my reasons. The music is absolutely brilliant. The song has a structural charm. The lyrics are amazing. If you've not heard this song, please go out of your way to hear it.

His music is absolutely amazing, but the man himself is creepy when onstage. Otherwise, he seems to be pretty intelligent.

Marilyn Manson's very furious attempt to spiritualize his breakthrough among Hollywood's shadows... Beautiful.

Wish - Nine Inch Nails
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) - Marilyn Manson

This song beats the cover. It is so emotional and dramatic. The guitar is killer.

Last - Nine Inch Nails
The Key to Gramercy Park - Deadsy

The Newcomers

? Red Stars - The Birthday Massacre

The best Birthday Massacre song.

It should be at least in the top 5.

? No W - Ministry

I wonder why this song isn't here. It's sad that people don't know Ministry anymore.

The Contenders
Hurt - Nine Inch Nails

The song that led to Johnny Cash's amazing cover of it.

Mein Teil - Rammstein
And All That Could Have Been - Nine Inch Nails
Great Big White World - Marilyn Manson
Dragula - Rob Zombie

Much better than Manson. EPIC song from one of the greatest Industrial Metal bands.

P**** - Rammstein
A Violent Reaction - American Head Charge
Archetype - Fear Factory
The Beautiful People - Marilyn Manson

I especially like the ghost sound effects in the background.

Du Hast - Rammstein

Surely has to be in the top three! The riff is possibly the greatest there has ever been in an industrial metal song.

I love the guitar riff! Amazing song by Rammstein.

Stigmata - Ministry

This is the greatest industrial track, period.

March of the Pigs - Nine Inch Nails

How on earth is this so low? You seriously have to listen to it. It just gets you pumped up and ready for action.

This is the heaviest song I've ever heard.

Terrible Lie - Nine Inch Nails
Mr. Self Destruct - Nine Inch Nails
Head Like a Hole - Nine Inch Nails

This should be their signature song.
