Meh. There was certainly a time when a bunch of shittty metal bands added some slight electronic sounds to their music in an attempt to sound "industrial" (which just highlighted their complete ignorance with regards to actual industrial music, but that's a whole 'nother tangent I won't go off on). But that time is long past now. I think, if anything, you can find more modern metal bands heavily influenced by the Melvins or Neurosis than by Ministry.
