2) yes, but that's sonic youth and we're discussing noise, not them. i totally agree on this point, though.

3) you misinterpreted the "most people begin listening to..." thing i typed, i meant "most people WHO GET INTO NOISE begin listening to dissonant rock or free jazz...". of course it's not a rule.


1,2,3. Let's Go!!!!!

1 - Sure, there are certainly other noise merchants out there that don't happen to be Japanese ( NON was mentioned on this thread and me and you seem to share a fondness for Pita, to name a couple of the good ones), but the Japanese have an amazing arsenal of artists in that field that put a lot of the others to shame. They also tend to use imagery that gels well with all the crazy racket.

2 - I've just thrown that comment in before someone was going to mention the omnipresent ones like it happens often on noise threads.

3 - Ok, I must have mis-read as it was the other way round. My bad.
