Death industrial is an industrial sub-genre typified by a dense atmosphere, low-end drones and screamed or distorted vocals. It can be differentiated from power electronics by a slower, more atmospheric sound reminiscent of dark or ritual ambient, and a less abrasive sound. The Grey Wolves are often credited for pioneering the style, but the term was first used to describe artists such as Brighter Death Now.
