help me understand merzbow!

[bleep_bloop]

dont think of it as conventional music w/ verse, chorus, verse. use it as back ground music, or just sit back and absorb the noise.

i dont understand the appeal of listening to merzbow or how it is an enjoyable, natural sonic experience

[Stig Caraveo]

i like some noise

i like raison detre because it has cool, mellow sounds

but 1930 sounds like someone held a microphone up to a wind tunnel

okay i can sort of understand that i guess

the way i look at it, if you wouldnt go to an auto repair shop just to listen to the sound of mechanics working on cars, you shouldn't listen to merzbow

THAT IS NOT AN APT ANALOGY AND I AM UPSET
