you probably wouldn't get it... but if you are interested in noise, go check out Kevin Drumm's new album on Hanson, "Land of Lurches"... the cover art is pretty cool, and the sounds... are insane... he builds these huge waves of distorted feedback that teeter between walls of impenetrable noise and glorious major chord layers... fan-fucking-tastic... the b-side has some interesting melodies and samples embedded beneath a layer of noise... all very nice... my favourite noise release to date... |

Noise can be interesting,but never a masterpeice. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
why not? you can have masterpieces in every genre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

man don't be silly... masterpieces come from every direction... and in any case, i only did it as a response to a fellow in the latest smojphace thread who said :'Noise tracks sound too "randomised" for my liking. I wouldn't hear the difference between a track that is done somewhere between dinner and dessert and a "noise masterpiece" (of which I doubt they exist)' stealing other people's post and twisting them is the newest trend... |

Masterpeice is an overused word...Classic is an overused word and Genius is an overused word. And I still say you can't have a noise maasterpeice. :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes the word is overused, and i'm being completely flippant when i say it, this release wouldn't even be my favourite of the year... but all the same that doesn't mean that the potential for a noise masterpiece is not just as great as the potential for a drillnbass masterpiece or microhouse masterpiece (etc.) :P |

Yes, kevin drumm is great, do you like anything on hanson? Im literally obsessed with Wolf Eyes, i cant get enough and I want all of their releases(literally impossible to get am all, almost all are out of print anyways) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i've heard wolf eyes once... sounded pretty crazycool... it was this really nice picturedisc vinyl... i'm definitely going to check more of their stuff... |

to bring up an old one, i recently saw wolf eyes at a show in nyc, up before lightning bolt. not feeling particularly jumpy, i decided to sit down against the wall, close the lids and listen, which i think must be the best way to listen to these guys. at first i was thinking it was just another thoughtless drone group to fill in silence on the bill. but there is a real subtle energy to the eyes-- a fairly dark on at that. one track had this cartooned sound that may have been swords clashing. obviously, i couldn't tell you too much more about them, like how they sound in the studio. but i enjoyed the set. the whole thing made me think of walking in the woods at night (and that was before i knew the bands name). it made me horny. lighning bolt was a whole nother story...anyone seen them? |

the whole idea of noise seems so stupid to me... yes, I want to listen to annoying sounds... please, blast it into my ears so I can get a headache, PLEASE!! |
||||||||

|
|
idm = annoying sounds according to 99% of the world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Most equate IDM with noise where I come from... So intellectually malnourished ! |
||||||||
|
|

Noise still can't be a masterpeice. And what the eff is microhouse music? |

I can't see the appeal in ''noise music'' either, but then, I'm sure my family doesn't see the appeal in Confield. Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks. But I can imagine some cacaphonous noise being so much better than some other cacaphonous noise that it could be considered a masterpiece of cacaphony. |

Cheers...so it is more genre defining wank for music that couldn't make itself known any othr way. :P |

'you probably wouldn't get it' why? |

i'd like to dredge up this post again... because goddamn everytime i listen to Land of Lurches it gets better and better... and i hope that someone will consider giving it a listen... i have no idea why i said 'you probably wouldn't get it'... perhaps there's some contextual angst towards a post which inspired me to start this topic in the first place (and i do remember this being kind of a knee-jerk response to something or other)... but it isn't true... the first track is like keith fullerton whitman stuff only much more jaggedly textured... gorgeous as fuck the second track build to this really creepy surface whistle with these peculiar wolf-eyes/black dice sounding scream vocals underneath... probably my favourite track on the album... and the last track is sheer violence... if you are interested in any sort of experimental ambient, i'd strongly recommend giving this a chance... but maybe avoid headphones... cause you'll likely feel like you are destroying your ears... |

i like noise when it's done so that it evokes some sort of feeling other than, "ow my ears". i really dont like the smojphace noise...its too unlayered and boring; only one thing to focus on. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes... kevin drumm's sound is much more complex, and beautiful and listenable, than smojphace... |
