For this month’s genre playlist, we’ve put together a little something for those of you who prefer your rock music dissonant and in shambles. Here’s a sprawling set of 21 noise rock tracks we dig, lasting an hour-and-3/4. That’s just a case of tinnitus waiting to happen, so we wanna take the opportunity to remind you to protect your ears! (Honestly this playlist isn’t extremely abrasive throughout, but it’s a message that can’t be stated enough.)

As always, you’ll probably come up with things we omitted. In particular, there are some intriguing noise rock artists on Tzadik, whose catalog isn’t on Spotify; nor is Dope Body‘s. They would have been fun additions, but we hope you enjoy what made the cut!
