There have been times that I have put my headphones on and listened to Green Day, zoning out, as I would immerse myself in my art. After these sessions, I would remove my headphones and have throbbing in my ears. These are the times that I feel older than I think I am as you could classify some music as noise that you would not necessarily do as a youth.
Green Day nor their lead singer / guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong's other bands, punk rock band Pinhead Gunpowder, garage rock band Foxboro Hot Tubs, new wave group The Network, I consider noise but there are those that do. Hopefully I will never become someone to call any band noisy but I might turn down the volume. |
