My Love Affair with Industrial Music

Today I'd like to travel back in time--back to the Saturday nights of my life in the mid-to-late 1990s.  During this time I was in high school, listened to industrial and goth music, wore stripey tights, and hung out with guys who had reverse mohawks, as well as people who had nervous ticks and played Magic: The Card Game.  Every month I'd look forward to getting my free Wax Trax, Projekt, and Cleopatra Records catalogs in the mail.

On Saturday nights I stayed up until the sun rose, drinking powdered "international" instant coffee, and listening to music until my headphones made my ears feel like they were full of itchy water.  One of my favorite things to listen to was "The Mutant Dance Party"--a radio show featuring electronic and industrial music hosted by Zoltar on 99.1WHFS.  I discovered a lot of cool bands from that radio show, but I also had my all-time favorites as well.

Here we go back in time...woooooo...............................

Hooray!!!......I think we have arrived.  Strap on your irrelevant welding goggles now.

















And because they are freaking hilarious, I have to include these next videos, which are industrial genre parodies titled "League of Extraordinary Industrial Retards".:
