Ok, taking the topic at face value and omitting albums that are “plain industrial” or “industrial, but more rock than metal” - I’ll give it a shot.

1 ) Ministry - Psalm 69
2 ) Ministry - Filth Pig
3 ) LARD - Pure Chewing Satisfaction
4 ) Ministry - From Beer To Eternity
5 ) Dødheimsgard - 666 International
6 ) Thorns - s/t
7 ) Fear Factory - Obsolete
8 ) Fear Factory - Soul Of A New Machine
9 ) Revolting Cocks - Cocked And Loaded
10 ) Red Harvest - Sick Transit Gloria Mundi

The list would be really different if I were to include not-strictly-metal or more-rock-than-metal type albums. Like the only NIN album I love, namely the Quake soundtrack. Or The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste which I would say is an industrial album. Internet sites in-the-know doesn’t even list the Dødheimsgard album as industrial metal. Silly.
(edit: I forgot the album by Thorns, and that one must be included in this list.)

I’d say Skinny Puppy - The Process is Industrial Metal I mean 3/4 the songs or more have heavy metal guitar riffs…

You may want to revisit it.

I listen to it often. Just because they employ guitars, doesn’t mean they are “Industrial Metal”. That’s my overall problem with this sub-genre designation. Marilyn Manson uses more guitars and I wouldn’t call them Industrial Metal either.

If this was a check, it would have the word VOID written on it because of VOID.

Ghostmane!?
Manson!?

the fuck!?

My list would just be occupied by Ministry, Godflesh and kmfdm since they pretty much invented the genre innovated it and watched all the wannabes jump on the bandwagon

Die Krupps - Odyssey of the Mind
Coptic Rain - Eleven Eleven
Treponem Pal - Higher
The Young Gods - TV Sky
Cat Rapes Dog - People As Prey
Damage Manual - 1
Laibach - Jesus Christ Superstar
Think About Mutation - Highlife
Unit 187 Loaded
Static-X Shadow Zone

Somehow I missed the “metal” part, but I’ll leave it as it was

I’d never heard of this band so I looked them up. They’re catchy and didn’t sound like anything I was expecting. They kind of remind me of Laibach, minus Milan’s deep voice. but the music sounds very Laibachy to me. cool band.

The only album I had was God, Guns & Gasoline. Great CD, just never went any further.
