Who we are
Well, Actually this is more of a who I am. Christian Industrial currently constists of myself. I am
known as "Lanthanum". The mission of this site is to provide a high profile Christian presence in the
Industrial Music community. I plan to accomplish this by providing high quality streaming audio as
well as a low bandwidth mirror.
The reason for this is, I love Industrial music. I have been listening online since sometime in the late
90's. Until I started working on this site in the fall of 2004 I had not come across any Christian
music in this Genre. I now know that there is a huge library, and I want others to find it without
having to spend months searching obscure references before finding Christian Music.
A bad start
In the fall of 2004 I registered the domain, and started working on this. Unfortunately I did this
without first consulting God (Joshua 9:1-27). Soon after my server suffered a fatal hard disk crash
and I lost the entire site. Discouraged and broken, I placed a links page up to hold the site and
tossed the idea out the window as something that I wanted to do, but knew God had other plans.
This was the begining of February 2005.
A Knock at the Door
In Late February of 2005 I placed an order for Automata magazine from Flaming Fish
soon afterwards, I recieved an email from Carson from Flaming Fish asking what my intentions for the domain
"ChristianIndustrial.net" were. I explained what had happened, and what was going on.
At this point I started feeling that God was calling me do start over and do it right this time.
I prayed about and asked the Lord for his guidance and blessing, discussed it with my Wife, and
consulted with my Father. At this point I was sure that this was what God wanted.
A New Beginning
In March of 2005, I started working with Flaming Fish and CompletelyDedicated.com
to get a full website hosted on a dedicated server, and playing music from the Flaming Fish library.
The site went online officially March 13, 2005.
