[edit] Noise music comparison
Someone made an edit saying that power noise has nothing really to do with Noise music. I would have to strongly disagree - although a comparison to industrial may be more sound, power noise is less comparible to EBM, as the article states. However, we fans have a tendency to listen to all three. Anyway, just thought I'd voice my opinion here. Iluvchineselit 06:39, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
- imo, 'rhythmic noise' refers more to a style between noise music and power noise. i'd go so far to say it was more a subgenre of noise, but the noise article only breifly mentions subgenres/styles of noise such as 'rhythmic noise' and 'power electronics'. imo noise music needs a bit of a rejig, but i wouldn't say i know enough about the genre to get stuck in right now. --MilkMiruku 16:09, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] move
the move from Power Noise to Power noise has gone through, thanks to User:Bratsche ---MilkMiruku 13:04, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Non-notable artists
I deleted two artists on this page which had either no or nonsense links. The artists mentioned here should, I believe, be exemplarary of the power noise genre, and most should at least be live links. Perhaps we can construct an exhaustive list at a page such as List of power noise artists.Iluvchineselit 02:38, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Artists that aren't Power Noise
I'm not sure that I'd put Coph Nia in the Power Noise genre... Yvain 10:20, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Separate page for distorted beat music
I think it might confuse a lot of people when they see artists like Noisex and Winterkalte in the same list, and both being referred to by the word "noise". I think we should make a separate page for distorted beat music and put artists like Noisex there so people don't get confused. Raoul Roucka (the guy who coined the term "power noise", in case you didn't know) himself has said that he regrets calling his type of music "power noise" because there is very little noise in it at all--at least, compared to artists like Winterkalte, Converter, and Imminent who compose songs made out of real noise. (And when I say "real noise", I'm not trying to put down Noisex--in fact, I rather like him, but he, from what I've heard, is not noise.)
...And while we're at it, could we remove artists who are in this list just for having noise in their music? This is industrial--everything has noise. If we're going to include Combichrist just because of noise, then we'd have to include Nine Inch Nails (see: Broken EP) and Skinny Puppy (see: Last Rights), and I hope we all realize that they aren't Power Noise.
