It has come to my attention that there is no help thread for industrial metal (not one that is stickied, that is). Personally, I think that this is an oversight. Lots of people (including myself) want to look for industrial/industrial metal bands and the fact that there is no help thread for the genre is annoying. And yes, I am quite aware that industrial metal's "borderline-mallcore" reputation may raise some concern, but it should be pointed out that there are many bands that combine industrial metal with "legitimate metal" subgenres. I should also cite that there are borderline threads like the Grindcore, Progressive Rock/Metal, and Metalcore/Deathcore Help Threads as well as the non-metal Punk/Hardcore/Crustcore/Post-Hardcore Help Thread and the Neofolk & Martial Help Thread. So, if you could, could you guys create a stickied Industrial Metal/Industrial Help Thread.

Note: THIS IS NOT A THREAD ASKING FOR BAND RECOMMENDATIONS. I am just asking for there to be a dedicated help thread for industrial metal.

I apologize in advance if I came across as at all confrontational or rude

No problem, I stickied a thread as requested. There's an old one (2008) but bah, I'm not merging that shit!
