Talk about noisy artists and bands here and the fun times had seeing them live or listening to their records, whatever the sound quality.
Not just rock but everything from Sunn O))) to Swans, from My Bloody Valentine to Merzbow, Dälek to doom, Butthole Surfers to Bong, Anna von Hauswolff to Acid Mothers Temple, Sonic Youth to Sun City Girls, stoner disco to sludgy breakcore.
Not just metal, not just guitars - and many of these musicians use samplers and other electronics extensively - as long as it goes up to at least 11.
And help free up some space for the OT - sound quality thread to get back on track too in a place for discussion, anecdotes and recommendations.
