Industrial Hip-hop
I'm kinda surprised there aren't more bands playing this style, considering both genres' love of atonal vocals, heavy beats, and sampling, but whatevs m8 |
| 1 |  | The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy
Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury
Michael Franti's in this band, it's like finding out that Jack Johnson was actually Trent Reznor all along. |
| 2 |  | Death Grips
The Money Store
Stay Noided |
| 3 | | Consolidated
Business of Punishment
Goofy-as-shit vegetarian industrial rap, tend to be pretty hit-and-miss. |
| 4 |  | Meat Beat Manifesto
Actual Sounds + Voices
Sample-heavy and extremely grimy, they're more dub than hip-hop, but they're known to rap from time to time. featuring frequent contributions from Mark Pistel of Consolidated. |
| 5 | | Merlin
A Noise Supreme
Heavy mix of Industrial Rock, Hip hop, and minor jazz bits. not to be confused with the other Merlin, who is also a Canadian rapper. |
| 6 |  | MC 900 Ft Jesus
Hell With the Lid Off
My personal favorite and one of the less politically-motivated MCs in the genre. Later releases would see him incorporating more jazz influences. |
| 7 |  | Saul Williams
The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Ni
Saul Williams + Trent Reznnor = good shit |
| 8 |  | Tackhead
Friendly as a Hand Grenade
One of the earliest examples of the genre from former members of the Sugarhill Gang house band and UK dub master Adrian Sherwood. Be sure to check out the rest of the ON-U sound system catalogue for other examples of the style including Mark Stewart and Gary Clail's work |
