The Metro Underground Nine Inch Nails - Not exactly "independent" but too good to leave off. First came Black Sabbath, then Ministry, then NIN... that's the hierarchy.
FAME & GLORY Nine Inch Nails is one of the most influential rock acts of this era, almost singlehandedly putting the industrial genre on the map. There are endless NIN imitators out there but none even come close to the emotional power and original, compelling songwriting of Trent Reznor. Amidst elaborate mechanical/electronic backdrops, there is this amazingly soulful presence that awakens you, numbs you and thaws you. ultimately changing your world from the inside. The listener runs the whole gamut of visceral reactions when listening to any one of NIN's records, which are constructed as complete works that disarm you and penetrate your senses layer by layer.
