The term translates to "industrial themes" in English, and the music is characterized by its heavy, industrial sound, often incorporating elements of metal, punk, and electronic music. The genre is known for its dark, often dystopian lyrics, which often explore themes of technology, alienation, and the human condition in an increasingly automated world.

The most prominent band associated with teollisuusaiheiset is Children of Bodom, who gained international recognition with their 2003 album "Hate Crew Deathroll." Other notable acts in the genre include Kotiteollisuus, whose 1999 album "Kulkija" is considered a classic of the genre, and Turmion Kätilöt, known for their energetic live performances and unique blend of industrial and metal elements.

Despite its relatively small following outside of Finland, the genre has garnered a dedicated fanbase and continues to be celebrated for its raw, unapologetic sound and thought-provoking lyrics.
