Almost forgot: saw The Young Gods last week. Nice show, some good grooves, weird sounds and interesting interpretive dance on vocalist's part. Also first band I've seen where there was guitarist present yet most of the riffs were played off sampler - guitarist performed mainly weird noises (reversed delay and odd percussive sounds). Not a fan of older stuff (early industrial was rather raw sounding), but there was lots of atmospheric moments.
Also saw Aucan, gloomy Italians playing sort of dark, electronic postrock with hints of dubstep. I think somebody (Swervy?) posted them here once. This was nice show too, dudes used beats from Korg Electribe as a framework then played all the stuff around it on drums, guitars and synths. Energetic set - you can see how energetic they are by looking at their instruments - their synths looks pretty bad, broken keys and use fair amount of duct tape. Shame the show was short, it was less than hour I think, without encores.
Here's gap-toothed synth:
