Best 100 noise rock releases

Noise rock is a genre of experimental rock music that emerged in the 1980s. It is characterized by the use of dissonant and unconventional sounds, such as feedback, distortion, and other forms of sonic experimentation, to create a harsh and abrasive sonic environment. The genre draws influences from punk rock, industrial music, and other experimental and avant-garde genres. Noise rock bands often use unconventional song structures, and their music can be challenging and confrontational to some listeners. Some notable noise rock bands include Sonic Youth, The Jesus Lizard, and Big Black.
