Book Reviews of Noise Music: A History
Book Review: Over-analyzed and pedantic
Summary: 2 Stars
Having listened to a variety of noisemusics over the years, I was really excited to read this bookk which promised an overview of the genre without the hipster leanings that so often prevail when this subject has been broached (i.e. - a lot of namedropping and a dearth of actual content). Unfortunately, this book fails to provide a good groundwork to continue personal research from and also so dry and 'intellectual' as to render one into a sonobulastic state almost from the get-go.
In essence, I learned no new information and the author is unbearably 'clever'. This reads like a college freshman's study. Avoid at all costs.
