Ha! I was going to write a facetious post referencing the Krokus and Dokken diss (I admit I was down with these guys as well as Saxon and Manowar) a few days back as far as industrial and influence. I have been surprised by the extent of love for industrial 313 has. Industrial was what made me take so long to come around to loving this music....To me, it's everything detroit isn't; angsty, soulless, and whiny, plus the sounds stink. the funk just ain't there. It seems some of the biggest detroit names love(d) it so I'm obviously not correct on this, but industrial and trance are the only genres in any type of music I've never found a redeeming quality in....I came around to techno thru ambient groups and crossover bands like My Bloody Valentine. my boring 2 cents -jason GMOrecords http://www.genmod.org [EMAIL PROTECTED]
