Industry was a pop music band formed in New York at the beginning of the eighties which spawned only one album, Stranger to Stranger (1984).

Industry members were Jon Carin (lead vocals, synthesizers, keyboards, guitars), Mercury Caronia (synthesizers, percussions), Rudy Perrone (vocals, guitars, bass, formerly member of the progressive-rock band Cathedral) and Brian Madden (guitars, vocals).

Their first single, the anti-militarist State Of The Nation, broke through the european charts between 1983 and 1984 and led them to being the support band for acts like Billy Idol, Talk Talk and INXS. It was followed by Still Of The Night from the same album, but it wasn't as successful as the previous.

After the dismembering of the band, Jon Carin started a successful session-man career (he is a permanent member of the Pink Floyd live band and co-wrote the popular Learning To Fly PF single), while Brian Madden and Rudy Perrone went to form their own bands.
