( INFORMATION AND EXAMPLES OF EACH GENRE UNDER CUT )

NOISE ROCK !

Artists: Sonic Youth, Melt-Banana, Big Black, The Jesus Lizard, Boris

Most popular Era: Late 80s

Basic definition: Noise rock is a genre of music known for its abrasive and dissonant sound, characterized by extreme distorted guitars, feedback, and unconventional song structures (commonly associated with no wave). Rooted in punk and experimental music, noise rock pushes the boundaries of traditional rock music by incorporating elements of noise and avant-garde soundscapes. Bands in this genre often prioritize raw energy and intensity over polished production, creating a chaotic and rebellious experience for listeners.

Song examples:

POST PUNK !

Artists: Joy Division, Television, The Cure, Magazine, Talking Heads

Most popular Era: Late 70s - early 80s

Basic definition: Post-punk is a genre of music that emerged in the late 1970s, following the initial punk rock explosion. It combines the raw energy of punk with elements of art rock, electronic music, and funk. Post-punk bands often veer towards darker and more complex themes, both musically and lyrically, than their punk predecessors. The music is known for its dissonant chords and rhythmic intricacies. Some key bands associated with the post-punk genre include Joy Division, Gang of Four, The Cure, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. It's commonly associated with the rise of other sub-genres, such as gothic rock, no wave and synthwave.
