As for noise, I think Upside Down that's on Barbed Wire Kisses comp has one of the most severe in yr face kind of attitude that's ever been integrated with catchy pop hooks. The wall of feedback in that one just completely over the top. My fave song of that record.


My radio station has the Upside Down 7" with Vegetable Man on it.

1. Battered guitars, old loud pickups
2. Amps turned to 10
3. Stand really close
4. Move about a bit
5. Drain blood from ears after every other song

For some wild feedback do what everyone else has said such as standing close to the amplifier with your guitar etc. and then grab your microphone and stick it next to the amp. It gives you that really piercing, shrieking noise and you'll have every ear in the room bleeding with that one. ;)

thanks but I was actually talking about a particular noise, the fuzzy static feedback found in their songs, and I have already been enlightened that they used old fuzz boxes with feedback....;)

I have an old sears amp with a ripped speaker that makes radioish fuzz. It doesn't get all that loud, but it would be beautiful mic'd. I gotta start using that amp.

You can get crappy practice amps ridiculously cheap off of craigslist and such.
