and loosely related: CAN CAN HEADS and WEEPIKES. both started aeons ago, CCH still running...

Nice to know that Can Can Heads is still around. I have their "Headcracking Lifestyle" CD. It just came to my hands with some trade, a couple years ago, and I thought it was a nice surprise.
Do they have some other record released?

I'd say the band Drunkdriver often walks the line between noisy hardcore and noise rock.

Their last LP, Self Titled LP was one of my favorites from last year. I'd definitely recommend them. They also did an unusual collaboration with Mattin a few years ago.

Easily my favorite of the batch as well!

The collab with Mattin is fucking incredible. The B side is merciless.....pummeling drums and guitars with an extremely high pitched frequent slowly fading in for 6 minutes? So good.

You guys should check out A Radio With Guts podcast, I play stuff like that all the time along with other weird and needed to hear music.
Check it out, http://www.todbroadcasting.com/a-radio-with-guts/

I post a new show every week, and all of these are downloadable as well.

    Kind of a blanket-term, so the topic is open to personal interpretation...recently i've just been listening to all of my old Butthole Surfers, Jesus Lizard, Birthday Party, Brainbombs...stuff like this is pretty "top of the pile" but still essential for my initial exposure to noisy shit, aside from the standard hc/punk i was listening to as a youngster...any general thoughts, recomendations,  personal favorites etc? I'd like to dig deeper.....cheers.

Mystery Attacks: updates / sounds
Rouge Label: updates


Bigsby

Huge fan of AmRep scene/ sound

MELVINS: discography spans genres, but they are the kings

Hammerhead: every record is worth owning,  into the vortex is my favorite
Vaz:  2/3 of hammerhead, noise rock w a a gothic bend
Halo of Flies:  really more like lo fi garage, but definitive
Today is the Day: temple of the morning star and in the eyes of god are incredible, but early AmRep stuff like supernova and willpower are way more  experimental/ noise
Unsane: their early work w/ the drummer Charlie ( rip) is just unparalleled
Cherubs: cover of Dreaming by Blondie best cover ever
Janitor Joe: later project Gnomes of Zurich interesting too

I've been listening to these records for over a decade, never tire of it

The best NoiseRock for me always meant sludged out bass ( rat or big muff) and buried vox

Rare to see it done well today. A New England band called White Suns ( I think) gets it right

Not quite 'noise rock', but I've always thought that Finnish hardcore band Sekunda sounds much more like overspeeded noise rock than hardcore punk in all their glorious chaotic sloppiness.

i think people overstate the noiserock element of Zeni Geva.  definitely a lot of dissonance and percussive riffing, but they are fundamentally a death metal band ...


Agreed. People do overstate the noise element in ZG. But Death Metal? Check your ears. Zeni Geva are fundamentally a progressive/psychedelic rock band w/ roots closer to Geddy Lee's Rush than anything from the world of metal...

Some of the suggestions here are plain cranky: The Jesus Lizard?! I'd be hard pressed to name a rock act w/ a cleaner sound. Scratch Acid? Maybe - but JL?  No.

Bastro, Big'N, Bitch Magnet, Mount Shasta, Dazzling Killmen (Skingraft Records are as reliable as Trance Syndicate).
Caspar Brötzmann can be awesomely noisy (w/ his curious jazz rock sensibility) - but he doesn't quite rock all the boxes for me.

As listened to SPLINTERED parapraxis LP again today, yes, still unmatched. RUSTED SHUT are unmatched when it comes to be fucked up Texas gutterjunks. Love their REHAB album. Cannot forget meeting them, haha.

I'm in a band called Makakakarooma. We are barely coherent and quite a lot incompetent. One chord forever. Got some stuff coming soon, sounding not a million miles from this:

Rectal Hygienics

I'm real picky about this shit, but this band hits home line no one's business. That first LP makes me feel like I need to go to a free clinic....

I haven't really dug into the second one as much, but I like what I've heard. I bought it right away but I haven't felt the urge to give it more than a few cursory spins.
