"I started it because it killed a certain pain in my head."
Noise, jak již název napovídá, je asi tím nejextrémnějším odvětvím postindustriální hudby. Přestože má svou tradici a poslední dobou i čím dál větší respekt tvůrců a posluchačů jiných hudebních směrů (věrozvěst noise Masami Akita alias Merzbow na scéně působí již dobré čtvrtstoletí a řada jeho kolaborací nejen s průkopníky progresivní elektroniky výrazně roste), stále se mu nedostává klasifikace a uznání z tradičnějších muzikologických hledisek. Zdá se, že k pochopení a ocenění této hudby je více než kritický rozbor potřebný ponor a nehodnotící otevřenost.
