>clouddead
Nuclear War! (Yeaaaahh...)
I listen to Merzbow, but I also listen to a ton of other shit too.
BTW, Amlux>Pulse Demon>>>>>>>>>>>The rest of Merzbow
Shit, son
Yeah I'm a true Merzbow man myself, I'm not one of those Pulse Demon plebs. Amlux, Flare Gun, Hybrid Noisebloom, I could go on...
I can guarantee you have maybe touched 4 albums at most beyond those two, of Merzbow's discography.
Music is anything you want it to be. That is to say, you can apply the frame of appreciation for what you hear to literally any sonic experience whether it was intended to provoke an aesthetic reaction or not
Hybrid Noisebloom a shit
To be honest, Merzbeats killed all interest in Merzbow for me, so I didn't listen to his complete discography.
Merzbient masterrace reporting in
Retarded poser
Don't be doin that
fuk u
most of these bands/artists are good
thank mr skeltal
yes, that is why I listen to Meghan Trainor exclusively

that's the meme

wrong. Any intentionally created and arranged sound with the intention of being music is music
:(
...
fuck
don't do this :(
Douche chillllll
NOOOOOOO
oh hey haha
cant risk it senpai
a few songs by clouddead are out there enough to fall under the category
don't do that
not risking it
oh no lol! save me 1s an 0s
nope
This is the only one I actually care about
What the fuck is your problem?
Merzbow is trash, as is Envelope Philter and everything "noise" going all the way back to Metal Machine.
Why is Unwound on that list?
nah
nice meme lol.
DELET THIS
This isn't music you edgy faggots, it'd better be suited for torture @ guantanamo bay
how is this board always worse everytime i check on it so consistently
What is music?
...
Honestly though Merzbow is probably one of the least edgy artists I can think of.
If I make a recording of myself scratching a chalkboard with a fork it's not music. By your logic anything can be anything. This isn't philosophy class.
tfw it already did
You didn't answer my question.
oh
fuck you
That would infact be music
You don't understand his logic; you shouldn't make assertions as if you do.
I was young, far too young. He was wintering in Kent, whoever 'he' was. I may have convinced myself that it was all a dream. I first saw him when he held the door for me at the local railway museum, and our paths crossed again in the library; we both reached for the same copy of Nabokov's Pale Fire as he hummed the vocal melody of Van Morrison’s Cyprus Avenue. Our hands brushed, and we looked to each other – I with a nervous smile, he with a grin that has now come to haunt my mind's eye whenever I allow my thoughts to wander as I am taken in by the motorik rhythms of certain popular German progressive rock bands. "Take it," he said. "I much prefer his earlier work." I thanked him and turned to leave, but as I did so he grabbed my dress and tugged me back, forcefully wrapping his arm about my waist and pushing my bottom against the rock of his crotch. I respected the policies of the library too much to scream. He pressed his nose to my scalp – "You're a soft little machine, aren't you? Mhm... seven out of ten." For reasons I still do not entirely comprehend, his judgement relaxed me. I told him my train was not leaving for another hour and he led me back to his cottage. Foreplay consisted of him slapping me about the face and asking "What does my baby say?" until I tearfully replied with "W-we can live in the empty spaces of this life." I do not wish to recall the rest of the afternoon in any more detail, but it was, as you would expect, slow, deep, and hard. Part of my therapy has involved revisiting the library, wherein I overheard a man at the desk enquiring as to where he could find a book on the Beatles. The look that crept upon the librarian’s face is one with which I am all too familiar. My smile is stuck, I cannot go back to your frownland…
Here's a dictionary definition from google: vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion.
Merzbow is none of that
No it wouldn't, it would literally be noise
>as if you do
Fug
you need some Secret Chiefs 3 and Estradasphere
ok
>he thinks noise started with Metal Machine Music
>despite being this retarded and uneducated, he still thinks his bandcamp noise garbage is so deserving of people's attention that he goes out of his way to shill it every single day in what has to be the least subtle way imaginable
just end yourself lmao, there's no helping you
plz no
anal men
fuck not again
never again
Thank you :)
I would argue that there's a beauty of form in noise music. Especially with the texture of it. Unless you're arguing he doesn't use instruments.
pls no
shit pls no
Good thing I only have vinyl and CD
Also nice add on with oasis. It's like your trying to make this thread about me
Kys
merzbow and almost all noise music has some level of emotional expression, and is made with some sort of device (instrument)
like a dog without a bone, an actor out on loan
damn
nice quads
this was painful to read it seems like some tumbr browsing teenage girl typed it out. please leave my board and never come back
oh no
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug
oh you like anime too :)))
anyone who enjoys anime deserves to die
that being said, hell yeah
>Hey hey look at me! If I say noise is not music, is a fact, because I say so!
Get fucked.
>noise is music
>elephants are microwaves
the only thing related is that they're both made of soundwaves.
Easily better than any of Merzbow's work 2bh
>tfw you actually like most of those artists/bands
B-b-but I like stuff like Radiohead and AnCo too!
Noise is music though.
Elephants can't be microwaves.
Are you a moron?
Noise isn't music you fucking idiot. Why are you even saying that? Are car noises on the highway music to you? Or when your taking an emotional shit, is that music? What isn't music to you?
nothing
sound=music, anything less puts bars on what music can be
postmodernism smdh
do you feel like you're cheapening the meaning of "music" by allowing those things to be considered music? Get over it.
