noisecore

A moniker used to define three very different types of music:

1. Noisecore is a synonym for noise rock, an extremely fast and volatile combination of punk rock and noise music. Examples include Lightning Bolt and Melt Banana.

2. Noisecore can refer to grindcore (an extreme combination of metal and punk) combined with noise music. This style focuses on speed and chaos rather than musicianship or structure. Examples include Anal Cunt and Gore Beyond Necropsy.

3. Noisecore is occasionally used to describe hardcore techno, an electronic music style that developed in the 1990's in New York, Rotterdam, and Newcastle. Examples include Anabolic Frolic and Ethos.

Noisecore is not related to any subgenre of metalcore, or metalcore itself. Some bands incorrectly referred to as noisecore such as Dillinger Escape Plan and Coalesce are not influenced by noise music and do not incorporate it into their respective sounds at all.

Contrary to what other entries say noisecore isn't a type of metal or experimental music it all. The genre definetly doesn't include DEP. Actually true noiscore is ridiculously fast, structure-free grindcore, with feedback, hateful lyrics and general disregard for musicianship. Often bands Sometimes noisecore bands write songs with structure, although they still retain all other elements of noisecore though. Noisecore is called that for a reason. Literally it is a genre devoted to making loud obnoxious and discordant sounds with absurd vocals and weird noises. Its hard to understand until you hear it for yourself. Songs usually range anywhere from several seconds to several minutes.

Imagine two freight trains colliding, 100 pigs being slaughtered, a whole school of nails on a chalkboard, the world trade centers falling down 8 times, and the Columbia blowing up, all at the same time. That's noisecore.

A genre of music that is often times confused with technical metalcore. Signified by it's blend of noise (music genre) and hardcore. The guitars are usually so muddy and distorted that you can't hear single notes that well. The bass (distorted like guitars) is often times a driving instrument unlike in other genres. The drums range from electronic to blastbeats to off time patterns, but the main focus of the genre is the guitars and bass, not drums or vocals. Altough it was only marginaly successful on the west coast of the U.S. in the mid to late 90s, it has influenced such acts as The Dillenger Escape Plan and Scarlet. There also tends to be a lot of samples and weird effects put on the music. Some well-known bands of the genre: Training For Utopia (broken-up), Coalesce (still active)
