The original Dream Syndicate were more an ensemble than a band though.

1) an echoplex is not an instrument, the echoplex is one of the progenitors to the modern delay pedal. i quote from wiki:

Quote:

Many delay processors based on analog recording, such as the Maestro Echoplex or Roland Space Echo, used magnetic tape as their recording and playback medium. Electric motors guided a tape loop through a device with a variety of mechanisms allowing modification of the effect's parameters[3]. Thin magnetic tape was not entirely suited for continuous operation, however, so the tape loop had to be replaced from time to time to maintain the audio fidelity of the processed sounds.

2) the echoplex use by comets on fire is the same as the keyboard in acid mothers temple music and are acid mothers temple noise? no!

3) i have blue cathedral, avatar, their split with burning star core, their split with major stars and the sub pop promo with live tracks.

they can get noisy but they are not noise. if any band who uses some distortion and feedback were to count then we'd have dinosaur jr and husker du in here.

porkmarras 08.08.2006 12:48 PM

Exactly.

Savage Clone 08.08.2006 12:48 PM

Full concurrence with Everyneurotic. I wrote about this just before the page turned over. The Echoplex is an effect unit that requires an external sound source to function. It makes NO sound on its own, aside from perhaps tape hiss.

i will jump in here and say that this isn't noise. it's "dischordant indie music"

gmku 08.08.2006 12:52 PM

There's no point trying to make serious music conversation on this motherfucking forum.There's tons of fucking threads where to goof around but some cunts really only want the attention that they so obviously crave from their every pore.Hahafuckingha!

Cantankerous 08.08.2006 01:09 PM

:( :( :(

Trasher02 08.08.2006 01:11 PM

The Haters are very nice too.

I read that they threw microphones into power grinders.

golden child 08.08.2006 01:17 PM

i saw the haters last month, ruled.

thats a good link there porky, they got some good stuff.

Everyneurotic 08.08.2006 02:11 PM

savage clone: i will edit to give you credit, didn't notice your post. beat me to it!

there's some confusion because there's sixties dream syndicate movement/collective with young, conrad, cale, etc. and there was a jangle pop band from california circa late 70's/early 80's also called the dream syndicate who released albums such as days of wine and roses.

i thihnk there's big confusion between noise and dissonant/discordant rock.

Sorry, I promise to behave.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 08.08.2006 02:15 PM

To me there are two different kinds of noise:
distortion noise
distortion free noise

noise is unstructured sounds that to a mojoirty of people is unpleasant. So it does not have to be loud to be noise, just free of all forms of structures. By this definition some of Derek Bailey's stuff could be considered noise. The idea of basing an entire genre of music to distortion noise kind of jolts me because you can only come up with so many sounds. Wich brings me to this point:

Recorded noise sucks! See it live!

I second that.

golden child 08.08.2006 02:28 PM

derek bailey is not noise.

porkmarras 08.08.2006 02:29 PM

Well,no derek bailey is not noise but he has worked with people who are noise.

porkmarras 08.08.2006 02:32 PM

And this brings us to..............

Yeah, that too.

I'm not sure whether this falls under noise, electro-acoustic or dark ambient. In fact dark ambient and electro-acoustic are quite similar I think, with a lot of relevant and related points between them; so I'm just going to lump this album in here...

Toilet & Bowels 08.09.2006 06:43 AM

dark ambient is probably the worst genre of music of all time

pokkeherrie 08.09.2006 06:47 AM

worse than new age?

porkmarras 08.09.2006 06:50 AM

new age is THE worst

pokkeherrie 08.09.2006 06:55 AM

fine. now that you've got that off your chest, sit back and relax and listen to the music... or no, FEEL the music.
