>>63722463
it's basically discordant natural anger.
it's very appealing to some people who don't just want to listen to pretty tunes or generic open e chugging for 'anger'.

I don't listen to harsh noise very regularly but I get the appeal and you should too anon.

I think a lot of people who enjoy noise are troubled and that's why they find comfort in it.
>>
>>63722463
fuck you
>>
>>63722521
Are you talking about noisecore/power electronics or just noise? because I certainly don't see all noise as anger, more like dense soundscapes to get lost in.
>>
>>63722601
oh yeah it definitely depends the type.
mostly I'm talking about harsh noise

stuff like melt-banana though is super jammy. way more interesting textures than traditional timbres/tones or w/e could bring to the table.
>>
>>63722463
This opinion is such a meme here that nobody will take it seriously.
>>
If a living creature creates something, it is art. You can thank dadaism for making art a more meaningless word than it ever was.

Noise is music in that it has intention and composition behind it. Field Recordings are not music, but Pulse Demon is.

Well shit if this isn't noise rock then I don't know what the fuck is.
"...but incorporates atonality and especially dissonance, and frequently discards typical songwriting conventions. Noise rock developed from early avant-garde music, sound art, and rock songs featuring extremely dissonant sounds and electronic feedback."

"In 1992, Melt-Banana started in Japan, afterwards being picked up by John Zorn and Steve Albini and became a known act in Europe and the United States at the end of the nineties and a famous example of ultra fast noise rock."

"A similar scene also began to develop in Osaka, Japan, spearheaded by Hanatarash and the Boredoms,[1][9] who composed extremely short, fast "songs", marked by blasts of rhythm (reflecting an influence from grindcore),[41] screaming, and overloaded guitars. Boredoms singer Yamantaka Eye also worked with the New York City jazzcore group Naked City.[42] The Boredoms eventually evolved towards a far more meditative sound, taking inspiration from Krautrock.[43] Gore Beyond Necropsy,[44] Ground Zero,[3][45] Zeni Geva,[3][46] Guitar Wolf,[47] and Melt-Banana[3][48] extended the Japanese noise rock style. These bands also reflected the impact of the Japanoise scene pioneered by Merzbow.[1]"

i remember when that dude dominick fernow (prurient, etc.) had the hospital productions store in nyc. i went in one time on record store day because he was literally allowing people to "make" their own noise cassettes. i don't know where i'm going with this but it was really easy to make and quite hilarious as well. it's like i got to see how these "professional" noise dudes/"artists" play this game. it's sad.

and yes, very fascist too. he had a bunch of nazi music that wasn't exactly for sale unless you asked about it. what a weirdo. just like all of you that actually dig this shit.
>>
>>63724573
everyone into noise is just an ex-punk/hardcore kid reject that got tired of touring and standing around while holding instruments.
>>
>>63724573
>i went in one time on record store day because he was literally allowing people to "make" their own noise cassettes.

i always wondered about the details of that event

were the tapes assigned a label catalog number?
what equipment was made available to people to work with?
was the artwork for all the tapes the same or what? was there even any artwork

>he had a bunch of nazi music that wasn't exactly for sale unless you asked about it.

you don't like grand belial's key? bitch.
>>
>>63724772
the only cataloging that wad done was you getting to write your name on the tape. it was hand numbered 1/1.

i can't really tell you what the equipment was; it mostly just a bunch of knob turning equipment. each knob you turned made a noise, etc. there were wires as well that you could assign to whatever slot.

yeah, artwork was all the same. it was just some stock hospital productions logo done as tape art.

he had more than just grand belial's key, dude. there were some fascist spoken word albums and some shit that would've made tom metzger smile.
>>
honestly i had so many friends that one day went from being cool, normal people to getting so knee deep into this noise shit. it's legitimately sick and i thought they had some bad egos. they feign such shitty superiority behavior above people when really they're just ex-punk kids that grew up listening to pg 99 and were over that. most of these noise heads are like that.

Pulse Demon is not fucking music. Pulse Demon is "I left my HAM radio on last night, and recorded it."

Five Star Hotel's Gray Data is music, because it actually has something happening in it.
