	U B U W E B :: The Aesthetics of Noise
		Noises are sounds that are impure and irregular, neither tones nor rhythm - roaring, pealing, blurry sounds with a lot of simultaneous frequencies, as opposed to a rounded sound with a basic frequency and its related overtones.
		Noise rock is not a coherent style, but a loose term for quite different approaches to a noise aesthetic within a post-punk idiom.
		The ecstasy of noise is predominantly aggressive and vehement, as the maelstrom of noise in Sonic Youth.

	Noise music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"Noise" music is regarded by some as a contradiction in terms, because "noise" is generally defined as unwanted and undesigned or unintentional sound and music as the opposite (see Definition of music).
		Noise music is loosely related to industrial music, sharing its DIY ethos, independence and ethic of using "non-musical" sources.
		The aptly named noise rock fuses rock to noise, usually with recognisable "rock" instrumentation, but with greater use of distortion and electronic effects, varying degrees of atonalism, improvisation and white noise.

	ArtandCulture Movement: Noise Rock/Art Rock (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		The original art rock of the early 1970s revealed a symphonic, technical side of rock that was exemplified by Yes and Genesis in England, and tinkered with by the more experimental Europeans: Magma, Can, and Gong.
		Slovenian noise rock organization Laibach also favored art manifestos over rock-star posturing, offering military aesthetics and pseudo-ideological rants that are sometimes scarier than they are funny.
		As modifiers, they may be applied to sub-classifications of other genres (as in noise breakbeats, atmospheric noise, noise pop) anytime they fulfill a loose criteria, like using cacophony as a compositional tool.

	Alex Ross: The Rest Is Noise: Rock 101
		Pop-music professors, especially those who specialize in rock, are caught in an obvious paradox, which their students probably point out to them on the first day of class.
		The pioneering rock critics of the sixties, such as Lester Bangs and Greil Marcus, wanted to mimic the music in their prose, and they had enough style to pull it off.
		Then there are the rock songs that were written by committee, often in the middle of the night, and under the influence of something other than the muse Euterpe.

	Noise pop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Noise pop is a term used to loosely describe a number of alternative rock bands that fuse punk rock's attitude and anger with the atonal noise, feedback, and free song structures of noise music, presented in a decidedly pop context.
		Noise pop and shoegazing are very closely related genres, many shoegazing artists can also be considered as noise pop.
		Noise rock is a similar genre to noise pop, although it is more closely related to punk rock.

	Pink Noise press
		Pink Noise is a local art rock quartet who strives to keep their audience guessing.
		Standing on the shoulders of bands like the Pixies and fellow NYC groundbreakers Sonic Youth, Pink Noise don't rely on any infectious pop hooks or catchy dance beats.Instead their latest LP, "All Is Nu", produces a tremulous vibe, a feeling, a notion simoultaneously disarming and eerie.
		By the third song, “Bland,” you have a fairly strong grasp of Pink Noise’s low-energy art rock – that meanders along and is punctuated by yelps and screams of anguish.

		Noise pop often has a hazy, narcotic feel, as melodies drift through the swirling guitar textures.
		In the late '80s, noise pop was the chief inspiration for the British shoegazing movement, which made the lyrics more introspective and the melodies more fragile.
		An acid-bubblegum band with as much affinity for sweet melodies as blistering noise assaults, their off-kilter sound, uncommon emotional depth, and bizarre history (packed with tales of self-immolating fans and the like) firmly established them as true originals.

	System Noise NYC
		System Noise are going places nobody’s gone before, blending elements of noise rock, art rock, funk, metal and even hip-hop with a scorching, high-voltage live show.
		Most of it is ferociously loud rock, yet imbued with the kind of dynamics you typically expect from a jazz group.
		I think System Noise will have that same effect on a new generation of listeners who might not know any of those particular artists, who all pushed the envelope just as System Noise are doing now.

		Prog Rock is a musical genre that almost lives in its own universe.

	Noise rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The style is sometimes referred to as "noisecore", though this term can also refer to a variety of fast, distorted hardcore techno music and grindcore.
		Later, the sound became associated with Japanese artists such as Boredoms and Melt-Banana, who incorporated the influences from Japanese noise music even further, and occasionally adopted completely chaotic structures creating extremely short, fast "songs" which were marked by blasts of rhythm, screaming, and extremely overloaded guitars.
		In many cases, although the backgrounds of the bands are different, the "art" influenced noise rock bands and grindcore bands have often collaborated on new music.

	Tiny Mix Tapes: The Punks
		I think the Punks are proof of what happens when a noise band tries to erase talent from the equation.
		Noise is such a funny genre because what us indie kids usually hear from it is only the really really high-profile stuff.
		I'm a big proponent of smart noise rock, and it's sad that the Punks are the first band to talk about noise so self-consciously because they can't do the idea justice due to the face they're not a very good noise group.

	Perfect Sound Forever: 90s Noise Rock
		Of course, rock is not dead; The Rolling Stones lumber on, each new tour a license to license signage, crossbrand themselves with imported hops and basically print as much currency as they see fit.
		I realize that 'rock is dead' prognostications have become a somewhat clichéd response to any challenge of the hegemonic powers of certain specified rock dinosaurs of the 1960's and early 1970's, as Lawrence Grossberg has cogently argued (pp.
		What they created, I call it Noise rock, was done as both a nod towards Jacques Attali's seminal work and an attempt to distinguish between his concern with free jazz and mine with a subject more affiliated to rock and roll.

		The San Antonio, Texas, group has been a rock explosion since it hit an already saturated rock market with the release of its major debut album,...An Education in Rebellion last July.
		Getting airtime on rock stations, like KXTE "Xtreme" 107.5 FM, across the country, touring with Marilyn Manson, and now kicking off the SnoCore Rock Tour with the likes of Fear Factory and Kittie, Union Underground seemed to come out of nowhere.
		Inspired by '90s rock bands, especially Alice in Chains, Scott and Kennison played parties for pocket cash, investing their money in a studio and making free tapes to hand out.

	The Village Voice: Status Ain't Hood
		His music didn't fit it either; his tectonic fuzz-bass rumbles usually don't fit any recognizable rock context, and the implied-stomp drum machines are buried deep enough in the mix that they're basically a non-issue.
		Growing takes the whole spaced-up effects-pedal thing even further from rock, pushing Kevin Shields' smeary guitar aesthetic to extremes by dropping any pretense toward song-form.
		The band is just two guys with guitars, and you usually can't see either one if you're standing in the back because they're usually crouched hovering over their pedals.

	Perfect Sound Forever: 90s Noise Rock
		Within music, that can be understood in a traditionally masculinized rock 'n' roll context (and thus skipping over much glam rock of the early 1970's), such moves seem to originate within punk's repudiation of its forefathers (although arguably disco got there first), and particularly the sexually ambiguous nature of its clothing (see especially Hebdige pp.
		As I myself look over numerous examples of recent appropriations and convergences of rock and avant music, I come to one inescapable conclusion—with the exception of avant ideas/themes applied to rock music (and not vice versa), the idea of the convergence itself seems much more aesthetically pleasing than the actual execution of it.
		He speaks of noise as a kind of chaos following Michel Serres but is quick to point out that "Serres does not use the word chaos, lest being associated with chaos theory" (2006, p.

	Page 2 : 'Noise Music Beach' by Curt Cloninger : Pif No. 32 - January 2000
		He creates not a wall of noise but rather that certain noise, that certain tone, that certain vibration, and then it's gone.
		This won Neil brownie points with the art rock crowd, but it didn't go over too well with his staple fans, the classic rock crowd.
		Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth called this CD the "most radical recording of the decade." Maybe Thurston said that because Pat Metheny's noise feedback is actually superior to everyone else's noise feedback, or maybe Thurston said that to give the false impression that he was even able to tell the difference.
