The noise genre
I always found noise music to be more intriguing than annoying. I still haven't met a single person who listens to noise music and enjoys it.
Genuine question: What's so fascinating about it? I've tried unironically listening to it, but there's just no melody to latch onto; I wonder how one can enjoy it
I don't know, the whole premise of it being somehow calming or something.
One user once tried to explain his fascination for Drone Doom to me; they said that it had a lot to do with feeling the "weight" of the music. Maybe it's the same with noise? There's something undeniably raw and visceral about it.
Noise Rock can be good, but only because the Rock part re-introduces actual musical elements.
