Thanks [b]Nu.[/b] for the previous recommendations, some I said I wasn't keen on I actually like now (grew on me).
But now, I'm listing some of the favourites (with a clean YouTube link in [color="#006400"]Spoiler[/color] for examples if you haven't heard/ wanna hear).[u][i] Only allowed 2 videos per thread, so the URL is given for last 3.[/i][/u]

Quick info: I like vocals (clear) can be screamy, too distorted=meh. Really fast, hard, techno sounds are good, examples below:

[spoiler=FGFC820]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSJuMHBWadA[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Centhron]watch?v=YaQzZh7YufQ[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Uberbyte (Horror themes)]watch?v=YNcrjA34I5Q[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Agonoize (Explicit 16)]watch?v=gxaHw3gYi2s[/spoiler]

So if you can recommend similar artists, I would be very happy. [b][color="#008000"]+Rep[/color] for each band I like.[/b]

Skinny Puppy

Apoptygma Berzerk is a little more "mainstream" (whatever that word is supposed to mean, I don't use it myself) but still good and counts pretty much as EBM.

Right I'm gonna just give my thoughts on each XD:

Covenant: Music was good, vocals were very Depeche Mode. I felt it lacked power, still emotional though, not something I would choose to listen to.
Suicide Commando: Music again, good, however the vocals often too distorted and unclear. :/
Psyclon Nine: Music was awesome, didn't like the vocals at all. I can't make out any words other than 'slaughter', and that's because of the titles. D:
Skinny Puppy: Okay-ish, I know they're legends, but not my taste, old-fashioned and...slow?
Apop: Reminded me of Industrial-Rock, couldn't get myself into it. D:

Thanks for the suggestions though.

Well Suicide Commando, Psy9 and Skinny Puppy are pretty much Industrial.=]

Hmm if you don't like distorted vocals then you're probably more into Techno-ish EBM... Do you like hardcore? Because in that case I'd recommend doujin stuff but it's always a go-or-not thing.

I do like the Techno EBM and Aggrotech to an extent.

Strong Techno sounds with aggressive/militaristic/dark lyrics with understandable lyrics is my style. Not to keen on plainly spoken vocals, but I do like singing or screaming (not too screamy, see [b]FGFC820[/b] above as my standard).
[b]Aesthetic Perfection[/b] is my perfect band, highly recommend him. There are about 3 songs on each album that are slow or 'not songs', but he is amazing.

Well I guess Grendel would come to mind then, chances are high that you know them already.

I'm a fan of a few of his songs already, I'm hesitant to download more as most his vocals are whisper or very distorted.
