Hinduism in popular (and industrial) music
I'm looking for references to Hinduism in popular music, but in particular I'm trying to remember an industrial band from the 80s that was very influenced by ISKCON. Any other references to Krishnacore, particularly academic treatments, would be very welcome.

The cover of Axis Bold As Love makes a strong visual refernce to Hinduism.
