it has more in it than meets the ear at first earsight... obviously, it just sounds like silly noise to most people - for the structures in it are "buried" in the swirls of noise.
but for some people, it is enjoyeable if you know how to handle it.
in fact it is just like the messy tracks in Go Plastic, like Greenways Trajectory, My Fucking Sound, etc. (do you like those), but harder to get into...
usually, i listen to Merzbow when i'm in a fucked state of mind, or (more often) when i don't want to listen to "real" music, and not silence either. when i want really *abstract* music.
i guess you can compare noise music to some minimalist contemporary art: to most people it is charlatanism, everyone could do it, but to some it is not... maybe they are charlatans who just make noise easily then record and sell it for cash, maybe they are real artists which most people just don't get. maybe it's a bit of both.

i don't think you should listen to merzbow when you're fucked up. that's not the best music for relaxing.
besides, i think that this music is somehow interesting. i made a few tracks like these for myself. i always thought:" hey, i get a sample, throw it through 4 distorters and the i make something". that was false. i think i used the most time to make such a song of all songs i made. i just sat on it hours and changed it...

I like some noise but not all of it...some of it is too loud for me, I really like the idea of distorted voices used in masonna's albums and I like the variations of merzbeat. I havent heard a whole lot but I do find it very interesting and like some of it no matter what most people say about it.

sadist > i'm not looking for relaxing music when i'm in such a state... i try to accompany my feelings with music, to get a kind of catharsis, rather than to change them totally. (well... most of the time.)
maybe it is wrong.
i don't know.

i don't think this is good for you. such music can make your feelings getting worse. maybe you even try to destroy something...

Janksi noise is the shit, speedranch and massona do great collabs. it doesnt always have to be so extreme. Noise can be minimal. like Francisco Lopez.

the thing with noise is that people seem to group it under the
high concept == bullshit banner. When not all of it is high concept or bullshit.
This isn't helped by the people who make crap noise who seem to think that
bullshit == high concept.
I think merzbow is a lot of fun though.

don't know whether Janek Schaeffer and the likes would be considered noise music, but his set on Sonar last year was awesome.
this dude, sitting in the middle of the crowd, with his two-armed turntable, loads of guitarfx's and a piece of paper, outlining the concert...

noise music.......there's a lot of it out there. i deal with NOISE pollution everyday i work....and there are times that MUSIC is the last thing i wanna hear, i prefer the sounds of silence a lot of times.......but music/or noise if you prefer can LIFT the spirit!
a recent concert i went to had the group BLACK DICE, which All Music decribed as NOISE........i found it to be beautiful tho, especially the drums.......whats noise to one is MUSIC to another =0)
*geeeee i type too much* T hee

Merzbow, Fluxion, and such.... Well, I wouldn't describe it as noise. But , i wouldn't know what to call it myself, if not music... It can get you in quiet a Trance you know. I don't dislike it. But sometimes, it;s too much

its all about moods.... what is triggered in each individual when he listens to it ...
i do sometimes see "noise" music as a pisstake...especialy when theres loads of pretencious bollocky talk about works like satanstornade....
i dont see it as modern at all...sounds quite retarded

Many people have a very strict definition of music. In my definition, music is self expression in sound form. It doesn't have to have musical notes, or conform to music theory to be music in my opinion. Noise can communicate emotion too. There are some great CDs which some people would consider just noise. I really love Download "Furnace" and Isolrubin bk (which is really Lustmord) Crash Injury Trauma is really good, even though many people would consider it noise.

Yeah I'm one of those who considers noise unmusical, just imho, I say it's sounds and not music. for me all music is sound but not all sound is music.
and if a tree falls in the woods, yes it does make a sound, even if noone is around to see it.
