YOUTUBE LOVES NOISE ROCK
Check out this balls-out chaos!

Wolf Eyes, "Village Oblivia": http://youtube.com/watch?v=D1osndl7oww
These guys are fucking brutal. Three dudes from Michigan who build their own noise boxes and in-mouth microphones... the noise band that other noise bands are scared of. Watch at your own risk.

Boredoms, song unknown but this is a fucking audio apocalypse: http://youtube.com/watch?v=kgwMBXhyp9w
Boredoms have what many noise artists lack: fun and humor! Yamatsuka Eye is one crazy fuck.

Throbbing Gristle, "Discipline": http://youtube.com/watch?v=Y8klW9trVTQ
One of the originators. Angry British collective who were often shut down for projecting death and pornography footage during shows.

The Locust, "Teenage Moustache": http://youtube.com/watch?v=aPmz6aM4ThI
Spazzcore lunatics in matching bug outfits!

Sonic Youth, "Silver Rocket": http://youtube.com/watch?v=x0AbAMAOUKc
Ah yes, the bridge between pure noise and rock 'n roll. New York's finest. A classic from the Daydream Nation album.

Sonic Youth and Iggy Pop, "I Wanna Be Your Dog": http://youtube.com/watch?v=WdLZm19zA5Q
Pure sexual rage captured live... Kim and Iggy on the mic, Thurston playing bass (!!) at one point, everyone on stage is rolling around on the floor... still the greatest fuckin' live band ever.
