Aggrotech / Hellektro
Aggrotech, also known as Hellektro, surfaced in the mid-1990s and got its final form as a genre in the late 1990s with bands like Flesh Field, Suicide Commando, Psyclon Nine, Aslan Faction & Wumpscut.
Even though the genre has strong influences from old school EBM, neo EBM and techno-fied genres like Hardstyle techno and Hardtrance – it is neither EBM, Industrial nor Techno. Aggrotech has evolved to become its own genre – somewhere between EBM, Industrial Dance (IDM) and Hardtrance. Characteristic of the genre is a techno-fied EBM bass-line, heavy straight drum-machine drums, lead synth sounds like different oscillator sounds, distorted or growly vocals and some newer Aggrotech bands are incorporating guitars (from metal-sounding guitars to softer rock guitars).
Newer bands within the genre (from 2008 to present): Synapsyche, God Destruction, Parasite Of God
