Consequence’s Industrial Week continues with a gallery of notable industrial acts in concert from Heavy Consequence photographer Raymond Ahner. Keep up with all of our Industrial Week content, including our Best Industrial Albums of All Time list, and check back for more lists, artist-curated features, essays, and more.
As much as industrial music is an aural experience, it’s also a visual one. Many of the genre’s acts present stunning stage performances — whether it be dazzling backdrops, entrancing light shows, or striking outfits — as they bring their dynamic music to a live setting.
From the mesmerizing feeling of a Nine Inch Nails show to the full-on assault of a Ministry set to the dance-club vibe of a My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult gig, industrial concerts offer a wide range of experiences.
