作为另类/独立摇滚的一个分支,Noise Pop顾名思义就是有一些吉他回馈、音调不谐和声音磨损包装风格的流行音乐。它占据了介于Bubblegum(泡泡糖摇滚舞曲)和Avant-Garde(前卫音乐)的中点,是传统流行乐创作手法和略富攻击性的白色噪音(White Noise:用以掩盖令人心烦的杂音)的碰撞结果。
当Noise Pop的旋律飘忽于涡旋吉他所营造的声场中时,其音乐经常会给人一种朦胧、麻醉和催眠的感觉,当然Noise Pop可以是欢快活泼的,也可以是棱角分明、富有挑战性的。
最早期的Noise Pop植根于the Velvet Underground的诸如回馈、失真等音乐实验,然而更被公众认同的Noise Pop起源乐队是美国另类摇滚乐队Sonic Youth和Dinosaur Jr.,是他们将摇滚乐构架与粗重的吉他失真融合在了一起。第一支正规意义上的Noise Pop乐队则是the Jesus & Mary Chain,它以1986年的首张唱片Psychocandy崛起于地下,几乎同一时期还诞生了可以说是最多产和最具生命力的Noise Pop乐队Yo La Tengo,其首张专辑也于此时推出。
在80年代末,Noise Pop引发了英伦的Shoegazing(自赏)运动,自赏音乐更加内省,其旋律更加脆弱。在90年代,Noise Pop仍继续对Indie Rock产生着重要的影响。
Noise Pop is a vague term used to describe a wide range of bands who use the feedback and distortion of Noise in a Pop context.
Although the two often overlap each other, Noise Pop is generally considered more accessible than Noise Rock. The genre commonly features more melodic singing and vocal-based harmonies. In keeping with the loose theme of accessibilty, the structures and presentation of the songs are often less experimental.
The genre came into its own in the mid-80s following the Post-Punk boom, with bands like The Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine, Pixies, and Pavement defining its sound.
