Sounds like you're refering to Einsterzende Neubauten.  They are
indeed from Germany.  Their name means "collapsing new buildings"
and that's exactly what they sound like sometimes. :-)  Some of
the "instruments" they play include banging a steel pipe on an
overpass wall, and a hospital heart monitor.  I have one of their
albums, and last week I picked up their new single but I don't
remember seeing the name "Industrial Dance" on it.  The single is
much more musical than anything on the album I have.  They played
on the single version of "Collapsing New People" by Fad Gadget,
where their pile-driver sound fits in nice when there is music
to go with it.
