A rivethead or rivet head is a person associated with the industrial dance music scene.[1] In stark contrast to the original industrial culture, whose performers and heterogeneous audience were sometimes referred to as "industrialists", the rivethead scene is a coherent youth culture closely linked to a discernible fashion style. The scene emerged in the late 1980s[2] on the basis of electro-industrial, EBM, and industrial rock music. The associated dress style draws on military fashion and punk aesthetics[3] with hints of fetish wear, mainly inspired by the scene's musical protagonists.
