If it did/does exist, what would you expect it to be like Tony?
Can you suggest a combination of bands and/or styles which might result in the genre?

I thought I had heard Tool referred to as being industrial before.

maybe something like Dodheimsgard or that post-black crew. post-black metal is strikingly similar to industrial metal at times and more varied than Godflesh allowed themselves to be.
maybe DHG are already here

Dodheimsgard are here,they were added by the PMT awhile ago.
I think Devin Townsend's music has some industrial elements.

The band 'Rwade' is progressive industrial metal, with some black influence, IMO.

I'd even go as far to say that more recent King Crimson has had a strongly industrial/prog metal flair to it. Just listen to The Power To Believe album. It's kind of been a part of their style since those ending tracks on Three Of A Perfect Pair.

Well, I was just thinking on how I can find my niche in the progressive genre, and I think I did succsessfully, as now I will try to make Prog-Industrial stuff, but like White Zombie and King Crimson maybe?

I think some stuff by Skinny Puppy, Clock DVA, Einstürzende Neubauten and a few more goth-than-industrial like Deine Lakaien or Das Ich is kind of industrial with a slight proggy approach, especially Deine Lakaien are great live musicians who tend to put a lot of effort into their arrangements... (and having origins in electronic music like Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream etc.) but as greenback already proved: It won´t work, at least not on message boards like this ;-) , who cares.

industrial relies in repetitive, cold, clinical rhythms. prog relies in melody, complexity and harmony. industrial is very marginal, REBEL, gross and brutal. prog is refined, subtle and sane.
industrial process ambience is much more interesting: pneumatic 3-15PSI valves opening and closing, high level alarms tripping, working grinders, electrical motors starting and stopping, contactors closing, boiling waters, forklifts monopolizing the alleys, elevators & conveyors operating, foremen's huge screams...

I agree here, The power to believe is quite possibly what you might be looking for, prog with heavy guitars and industrial elements

Not a bad proposal. In fact, the only one that actually makes sense in my mind so far.

A little off topic, but I've always wondered if the original Industrial
bands should be considered Progressive. Bands like Throbbing
Gristle and SPK were certainly innovative and experimental enough.

yes, all in all. but i guess you need to think twice about the register of the word 'sane'. after all, when has ever a piece of art been saneful?
woeful or cheerful 'insanity' for that matter is the engine of it all.

Personally, I'd say that Apollyon Sun have quite a few tunes that can be said to be progressive.
And if diving a bit deeper into the underground, pioneering band Munch quite clearly had several aspects of a progressive origin.

IMO it does exist.
Two examples are:
- Thought Industry: Well, the name says it all ! The first two albums of this bands have clearly features of both industrial metal and progressive metal. There are very mechanical sounding passages alternated with progressive sounding passages with lots of shifting time signatures.
- Anacrusis: Their final (fourth) album contains several tracks that are definitely prog metal but are at the same time sounding very mechanical and harsh. Best example is the track "A Screaming Breath". You can download it (free!) from the band's website.
If you're really interested in what industrial prog metal does sound like, you should definitively check this bands out!

Heathen Earth by Throbbing Gristle sounds like Krautrock to me.

No way are they prog either, for that matter. Though they do kick some serious ass.
As for the question posed by the thread, Dodheimsgard's 666 International is exactly what you're looking for (as long as you don't mind black metal influence), also check out Ephel Duath's debut album which is very much in the same vein. Disillusion's second album Gloria is also full of industrial influences, although I (and most other Disillusion fans) don't really consider it worth anybody's time. The above mention of William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell by Ulver is also a good suggestion.
