Who rooles the Brit Industrial skool?

Nitzer Ebb had a higher profile and became more 'fancy-dancey' over time but still were able to deliver that all-important sonic punch. Cubanate released three of the best albums of the 90s ('Body Burn', 'Cyberia', 'Barbarossa') and gave the most thrillingly violent live shows I've been to.
But whose the hardest? (sorry, I mean best)

Has to be Cubanate for me, they sounded like an oil tanker falling down a mountain - to a disco beat! - and made the likes of Front Line Assembly look like OMD.

Cubanate again, but I have a soft spot for Nitzer Ebb still. But Cubanate just upped the ante wonderfully, one of the few industrial bands of the nineties that really worked for me.

seven years pass...

Weird to see my post there, I'd place them about evenly now. Listening to Barbarossa for the first time in a while reminded me how well Cubanate got the rave-is-the-new-industrial/dance thing down; the title track's a monster.

Cubanate easy. I also saw them support Front Line Assembly in 96 I think it was, then the singers side project supported Numan on his 96 tour I think it was. Noone knew who was support but i recognised him as soon as he came on, despite trying to pretend he was french.
