The Grey Wolves

The Grey Wolves are a British Industrial music group. They were formed in 1985 by Dave Padbury and Trevor Ward. The band has been credited with pioneering the 'death industrial' subgenre in industrial music. Their work has also been described as 'dark ambient' and as 'power electronics'. They have not limited themselves to simply producing music however, but engage in what they describe as "Cultural Terrorism", issuing manifestos, pamphlets and utilizing the mail art network to get their message across, as well as being an active part of the cassette culture. The Grey Wolves are controversial because of their use of fascist imagery and have been criticized for this aspect of their presentation. However, while acknowledging the criticism, the group does not apologize for this, instead insisting it is an integral part of their critique of society. Read more on Last.fm.
