Your Definition

The term "Industrial" first popped up in the 1970s, and is still used today to refer to [experimental] styles of music. The word Industrial was originally used to describe a style of noisy, [experimental] style of [electronic music] that draws on transgressive themes, but now it's a much broader term. Bands nowadays are fusing the industrial style with other genres like metal, rock, electro, etc. These styles are known as "post-industrial". The term is now simply used to describe and musical style that is [experimental] instrumentally and provocative lyrically.

The word Industrial also refers to the culture. The Industrial culture is quite similar to Goth culture, but there are many differences too. Goths (male or female) tend to go for androgynous clothing, wheras Industrialists almost always wear masculine clothing. Ideologically, Goths are usually more [interested] in smaller ethics (such as non conformity, creativity, being different) but Industrialists are often more political. Industrial is the masculine, angry, political, scientific side, and Goth is the dark, creative, romantic, bizarre side. One thing both cultures have in common is their love for shocking people.

Industrialists will usually listen to any experimental or noisy style of music, which is why rock and metal are very popular genres in the culture. Dress styles can be quite simple, but many industrialists will wear punk like clothing.

Long story short, industrial is fucking awesome
