I see you've gotten a fair deal of responses regarding Gridlock, but that was not what I was going to say, so here goes.

1) Pan Sonic (excellent experimental and beat related... if you dig the band Suicide, they did a collaboration with Alan Vega under the name VVV that is worth picking up.)

2) power electronics artists like Sutcliffe Jugend and Whitehouse that were around in the beginning of industrial (more or less) are still around today, and their newer releases are worth buying.

3) P.A.L. (releases some of the most "industrial" music around...)

4) B-Ton-K (his work isn't discussed much on the newsgroup, but it's damn good experimental electro.  it's great if you find ebm to be a bore, or if you just want to hear some interesting progression)

That's all for now.  Hope they help.
