      • Noise rock (sometimes called noise punk) is a noise -oriented style of experimental rock that spun off from punk rock in the 1980s. Drawing on movements such as minimalism, industrial music, and New York hardcore, artists indulge in extreme levels of distortion through the use of electric guitars and, less frequently, electronic instrumentation, either to provide percussive sounds or to contribute to the overall arrangement.

    • Oxbow - An Evil Heat (2002) Calling Oxbow a noise-rock band is perhaps reductive, since they’ve been responsible for some of heavy music’s most cerebral, artful explorations over the past 35 years.

  6. Nov 28, 2018 · Out of the roots of hardcore and punk slithered something much nastier and much noisier. That vile beast is the sound we now know as noise rock.

  7. Oct 24, 2013 · Noise music — primarily underground sounds that value volume and dissonance over structure and melody – is nothing new; its forefathers, Sonic Youth, the Jesus and Mary Chain, the Velvet Underground, My Bloody Valentine et al, all reached heights of popularity no noise band could dream of today.
