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.

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).
