personally i think noise is probably the hardest style of music to play well if the ratio of shite to goodness is anything to go by.
there are a handful of noise musicians who've made music that really has impressed and moved me, but most of it, even the majority of popular/scene leader stuff is so completely rubbish.
and the never ending glut of material is going to kill the whole thing off, i'm sick of wasting time listening to whatever knocked-out-in-20-minutes shite is passed off as exciting. wolf eyes are one of the best live acts i've ever seen, and i've seen a lot of bands, but if they could be bothered making recording that in some way reflected the energy of their live shows, or at least sounded like they'd put some thought and consideration in to the proceedings they might make a record worth listening to, instead of the dullness of slicer/burned mind/dead hills/mugger/etc.
in 5 years lets see how many of the groups releasing a new tape every month are anywhere to be seen.
i'm sorry golden child, you can quote whatever worthy and earnest person you like, or come up with some crazed concept for your music, but it doesn't mean a thing when faced with the barrage of boredom, thoughtlessness & diletanttism that is the majority of noise.
