It's literally just screeching and random noises
>>61844112
Yeah, and The Beatles is literally just guitar playing over vocals.
Your point?
>>61844112
>random noises
they are VERY controlled you idiot.
>>61844112
If you play the beatles in a bar..no one has a problem with it.
If you play merzbow in a bar..everyone leaves.
Why is that?

>Can anyone explain to me why noise "music" is considered music?
the only accurate definition of music is that any human expression considered music by a group of people is music. the only functional use of the term "music" is to denote the collection of art that people think about and discuss as music. it is undeniable that there is a group of people who produce, distribute, discuss, and consume noise music in the same way that people do other forms of music so there is no value in trying to differentiate noise music from other forms of music.
>Why do people enjoy it?
There are a lot of reasons people like noise. Some people enjoy the aggression of it and may find a catharsis through listening to it. Many of these fans found noise through metal, punk, or noise rock. Some people just enjoy the texture of the sounds. This is the same kind of enjoyment that jazz fans get from the timbre of a saxophone or rock fans get from the timbre of a guitar. In the case of noise that enjoyment is taken to the extreme and most other aspects of the music such as rhythm and melody are stripped away to have a pure exploration of timbre and texture. Some people also enjoy enjoy the conceptual nature of some noise projects. For example may of Dominick Fernow's projects are instrumental noise and industrial techno given context by descriptive song titles and creative artwork. This kind of multimedia aesthetic unity is something that is common in noise and is something many people look for in a quality noise project. Of course people can like it for more than one reason as well as other reasons I didn't list just like every other genre.

Not that dude but it is probably the most "easy" to listen to merzbow album (w/ merzbird). All linear song structures. Then there is also that idea that somehow the 90s stuff is more "hardcore" and "patrician" because it is really aimless and loud. I like the 90s stuff but nah
Merzbient
13 Japanese Birds
Collection Series (in merzbox and other reissues)
Material Action for 2 microphones
Yantra Material Action
Normal Music
E-Study
Hyper Music 2
Kibbutz
das
Pornoise 1/kg
If you listen to this, you are listening to the right merzbow.
