The genre commonly known as noise rock, developed in the 1980s as an exprimental outgrowth of punk rock. Fusing punk rock's attitude and anger with the atonal noise and free song structures of noise music, the raucous rockers introduced a new kind of avant-garde music to the Alternative rock landscape.
Some influences on the breed of noise rockers are the stark rock and roll of The Velvet Underground, the bluster of the Stooges and the no wave movement of the late 1970s. Sonic Youth propelled the no wave aesthetic into the new direction of noise rock.
Later, the sound became associated with Japanese artists, who incorporated influences from Japanese noise music even further, and occasionally adopted completely free, chaotic song structures.
Some notable artists working in the noise rock style are Swans, Big Black, Melt-Banana, Pussy Galore, Black Dice, Wolf Eyes, Throbbing Gristle and the Boredoms.
