industrial did not originate in germany evildnalor, it came from the UK with bands like throbbing gristle and cabaret voltaire, but germany seemed to embrace it a lot in the 80's when bands like neubaten were created after a good deal the original industrial acts disbanded. but original industrial wasnt really limited to conventional instruments. at this point industrial is a completely different entity than what it started out as.

from what i gather... the term industrial music sprouted from industrial records. They were a label who signed primarily artists who sounded far different from others which electronic bands and such were generally different for the time period.

The original music that was called industrial was meant to sound like the machinery they grew up around. There were little to no vocals, and everything was done 'experimentally'. In other words it was done using various homemade instruments. The type of industrial SP play is known as IDM or EBM. IDM is industrial dance music and EBM is electronic body music for those who didn't know. They spearheaded the second wave of industrial.

Actually evildnalor, Industrial wasn't popularized by Goth. They are two different things entirely. Goth was like you said 'post' punk, which centered around a british club known as The Bat Cave back in the 70's. Industrial was started around the same time, but in a different part of England. The main band known for coining that phrase was Throbbing Gristle, a group of performance artists. They were from an industrialised english town called Birmingham.

Who said goth can or cannot wear zipper pants? I wear them and listened to Bauhaus long before I knew of the Nu-Metal genre. Who is to say that even bands such as Bauhaus, Joy Division, Siouxie etc. define the goth culture. I believe attitude and general open mindedness to other people is the first step, character goes miles in comparison to way of dress and genre of music you listen to.
