Throbbing Gristle is some of the earliest, if not the earliest, but it can be a bit too experimental for a lot of people. Second wave industrial music is stuff like Front 242, Front Line Assembly, Skinny Puppy, Coil, and Psychic TV.

I'd suggest Psychic TV. The front person was a NB trans person, and a lot of the creative inspiration behind Throbbing Gristle. The album breath/be/being is a live spoken word album that helped me crack my egg. It's Genesis's coming out performance, essentially. CW: for that album, social oppression of people that are different.

Coil and Skinny Puppy are also excellent. Coil for their witchy gayness and approachable dance tracks (lots of experimental stuff too). Sleazy from Coil was also part of Throbbing Gristle and did most of the earliest experiments with looping industrial sounds. Skinny Puppy for animal liberation comrades.

And I don't know any modern groups. This is all 80s and 90s music mostly, though some of these groups still continue to make music.

I remember the shitstorm around Genesis in the 90s, was sickening and forced them to leave the UK.. The 90s was a bad time for anyone trans but it was a bad time in general and growing up through it and seeing a lot of transphobia and such, fucking bad craic.. contributing factor on me hiding within myself
