Albums like Thirst (1982) and Buried Dreams (1990) showcased their evolving style, which incorporated both harsh, abrasive sounds and more subtle, ambient passages.
Lead Into Gold:
Lead Into Gold brought a heavier, more aggressive sound to the industrial music landscape. Their style combined the abrasive qualities of industrial with metal and electronic music, and the band's only album, Age of Reason, was released in 1990, blending a more well-known style with the darker industrial sounds of the other bands.
