** "Hamburger Lady" is a combination of this and NightmareFuel. Genesis delivers a soft, calm and somewhat depressed sounding voice put through a vocoder while describing a woman so horribly burnt and in such horrible pain she resembles hamburger meat. While it's most upfrontly horrifying, it's also intensely sad at the same time, which is assisted by the extremely minimalistic instrumentation.

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: Surprisingly averted due to the fact that most industrial / noise artists copy later acts from the 80s, like Music/SkinnyPuppy and Music/CabaretVoltaire. Throbbing Gristle has always had a very unique sound which hasn't been copied, and this is why they are typically considered timeless for generations to come.

* WheelchairWoobie: It's hard not to feel absolutely horrible for the woman described in "Hamburger Lady", who is completely burnt from the waist up and will spend the rest of her life in strict medical care while feeling intense pain.
