Was surfing for new industrial music, bet I'm not the only one who lives this nightmare.

From "Metropolis," one of my top ten favorite movies. Rent it if you've never seen the whole thing.

But I identify more with Charlie Chaplin here...

Ravel's "Bolero" was written after having been in a textile mill IIRC. It could possibly be one of the very first examples of "Industrial Music"

Once you listen to it in that context, you can clearly envision the gears, pulleys, and connecting rods while listening to the music.

That would be the film version, which begins with the caption: "Days later...."?

Yep, more gears, pulleys and connecting rods ....

So to speak.
