The genre commonly known as noise rock, developed in the 1980s as an experimental outgrowth of punk rock. Fusing punk rock's attitude with the atonal noise and unconventional song structures of early industrial and noise music, the raucous rockers introduced a new kind of avant-garde music to the Alternative rock landscape. Sometimes the style is referred to as "Noisecore", although that can also refer to a variety of fast, distorted Hardcore Techno music.
Some influences on the early breed of noise rockers were 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 such as Boredoms and Melt Banana, who incorporated influences from Japanese noise music even further, and occasionally adopted completely chaotic structures creating extremely short, fast "songs" which were nothing but blast beats, screaming, and extremely overloaded guitars.
At around the same time Grindcore bands such as Anal Cunt were developing a similar style and this is also often referred to as "noisecore". In many cases, although the backgrounds of the bands are different, the "art-music" influenced noise-rock bands and "heavy metal" grindcore bands both have similarly high levels of technical playing ability and often work together to make collaborative music.
Some notable artists in noise rock over the years are Sonic Youth, Big Black, Black Dice, God Is My Co-Pilot, Green Magnet School, Pussy Galore, Swans, and Wolf Eyes. Homestead Records is viewed as a pioneering noise rock record label.
