The bands name says it all. Each of these words represented to their fullest & yet not limited to them. This is the first group of its kind. Like three bands in one, yet all within a single signature sound.
The Industrial part of IGM features Jon Simpson on lead vocals, Heath Joyce on lead guitar, playing their heavy form of rock with keyboards & various samples to make up the industrial part of this band. The Ghetto of IGM features Heath Joyce on lead vocals, Jon Simpson on guitar, & various females on backup vocals. A more aggresive approach to hip hop including heavier guitar riffs & vocals than any other urban music. At the same time producing the melodies & hooks that make it an undeniable appeal to everyone. The Metal of IGM is of course felt in most aspects of the band in some form. However, on a few select tracks it is definately felt the hardest. Finishing off the lineup live are Michele Achelpohl on bass, Jay Cusick on drums & Shawn Huddleston running the programming, lights & smoke on stage. Even with these 3 elements defining the basic formula for the band, the group is not limited to just these areas. A track like "The Last Time" co-written with drummer Paul Crosby of Saliva & other tracks like "Open" (remix) featured on the documentary dvd /100 Years of Flight - 17 Days of Glory/ showcase IGM's pure rock n roll hit ability. IGM has also worked with Josh Brown, formerly of the band Full Devil Jacket & currently with Day of Fire. Josh sang on an as yet unreleased IGM track called "Deflower". IGM wrote songs for Shinedowns first album, including the title track "Leave A Whisper". IGM's music has also been featured in adult films like "Fuck Rock & Ride" starring: Taylor Rain, Inari Vachs, Tanya James, Memphis Riegns (a.k.a. Heath Joyce) & snowboarding legend Shawn Farmer. IGM was also asked to write the title track to the feature which will be released as a video on IGM's upcoming dvd "The Invincible (Phase 2)".

Influences: Things that provoke thought or emotion. Things filled with talent. Things that kick ones ass or makes it bounce.
Sounds Like: Give us your opinions and we'll add them to the list. What others have said IGM sounds like. Linkin Park, Three 6 Mafia, Staind, Pantera, Jay-Z, Statix-X, Nine Inch Nails, Lil Jon, A Perfect Circle, Slipknot, Fear Factory, Lil Wyte, Rob Zombie, Full Devil Jacket, Limp Bizkit, Acid Bath, Down, Metallica, Sevendust, and many others I can't remember. But mostly what i hear from people is that it sounds original. Every song is totally different from one another. You can hear a little bit of a lot of different things in each song, but no one song has one exact sound that you could use another band to compare it to. This album has metal songs, acoustic song, rap songs with female vocals & rap songs without. Plain rock n roll songs using only guitars and drums. Hard rock mixed with industrial keyboards and some totally metal breakdowns. The lyrics are just as diverse. Messages of hope, saddness, pimpin, anger, brokeness, forgiveness, and all of lifes experinces. Lyrics with a worldly message and lyrics with a Godly message. No one feels only one emotion all the time, so why should a band just write music that expresses only one? IGM is something to listen to if you're sad, repentent, pissed, unrepentent, hopeful, depressed or if you just want to headbang / bounce and think of nothing at all.
