My god, does anything with fuzz bass qualify as noise rock these days?

C'mon, even a cursory listen would tell you that it's got jack shit to do with Noise. It's distortion, as used on guitar, as used in rock. Noise would imply that they were using non-tonal non-percussion sounds as a musical tool. They're just making poppish-dance songs with the heavy fucking bass and the crazed edge.

Noise rock? Pssh.

yes precisely. before i heard it, i was told it was a kindof dancy band with a lot of noise elements.

translation: "if nobody else in the world knew about them i would think theyre not crap, but too many people know and like them so i am forced to act like theyre crap and say they are "boring" "noise rock"...."

That "Romantic Rights" song still holds up well. I don't think I'll ever not enjoy it.
