Best 100 industrial noise releases

Industrial noise music is a subgenre of industrial music that emphasizes the use of noise, distortion, and feedback to create an abrasive and aggressive sound. It often features harsh, metallic textures and dissonant, atonal structures that are intended to evoke a sense of chaos and discomfort in the listener. Industrial noise music emerged in the 1970s and 1980s, and was influenced by experimental and avant-garde music, as well as by the industrial sounds of factories and machines. Some notable industrial noise artists include Merzbow, Whitehouse, Throbbing Gristle, and Nurse with Wound.
