The day before Halloween can only mean one thing—it’s time for Atrax Morgue. This year we discuss “No More.” The final proper Atrax Morgue album hit us in an unhinged way. In addition, Tara talks about the surrealist Pierre Molinier as one of the tra... more

Five stars because it's a noise podcast and possibly the only one of its kind. The crosstalk is driving me crazy though. Wish it was funnier and not just trying-to-be-funny. Please be funnier and talk less. I am aware of how ridiculous I sound saying that FYI
Just as the title suggests, even though their main focus is noise music, they do branch out and have guests or just talk about artist or bands that are not solely noise. (But closely related). It is definitely one of my favorite podcasts to listen to and probably the top when It comes to music. Tara, Mike, and Greh have great taste in my opinion and just love listening to them chat and interview guests. Just started contributing to their Patreon and if you like the podcast, you should as well.
The guy who left a negative review for this podcast because he reach out to a guest and “was lambasted for disagreeing with their prices” is an irredeemable loser
This podcast makes me want to listen to noise like Guy Fieri makes me want to eat food. If you think Guy Fieri is gross, even better.
Great interviews
Long time listener. Reached out to one of their guests to buy music and was lambasted by the artist for disagreeing with their prices.
Anyway, I’m leaving my furnace on for 5 hours and recording it with my phone while I’m asleep. Then I’m going to tell people it’s Chernobyl.
Nuanced!
If you love music history, than you’ll definitely love this podcast. No other podcast out there like it!!
The good folk at Noisextra have open my ears to all sorts of unexpected delights over the past year, with the latest being Nocturnal Emissions thanks to the chat with Nigel Ayers. They love everything noise related, and their enthusiasm is infectious. Noise can be quite a daunting genre so I’ve appreciated having the guidance of these three experts. Keep up the good work!
No life
I'm still going through backlog of merzcast recordings; great for noise neofits and absolute heads alike! Mike & Greh are really passionate guys; cannot recommend this podcast enough! )))
I’ve been a patreon subscriber since day one and the content just keeps getting better. Highly recommend this podcast for anyone who has even a passing interest in noise. I’ve discovered a handful of awesome artists and records I’d probably never have heard thanks to the NOISEXTRA gang. The enthusiasm and love for noise that Tara, Mike and Greh bring to each episode is infectious!
This is pretty much the only podcast that I listen to regularly. These folks have a scholarly knowledge of Noise, but they are still rabid fans and their unadulterated passion for the music and culture is infectious. As a long time Noise fan I’ve had plenty of friends fail to understand my love of the genre. I’ve suggested that some of them listen to the episode where Skin Crime are interviewed about the Music Should Hurt compilation with great success. There’s no better primer that I can think ... more
Thanks so much for the ATRAX MORGUE episode.
Despite its title, this is a podcast for open-minded, curious fans of music in general. You don't really need to have any clear understanding of what precisely noise music is (or is not) coming into this. The background and description given for each featured release should provide listeners with enough to start with, and it's not terribly hard to find at least something by each artist online, even if it's not the exact same release, so the listener can enjoy their own subjective experience al... more
Perfect. If you like noise and you aren’t into this podcast... you don’t like noise. Greh and Mike doing deep dives on critical releases in the history of the genre is not just important work that fosters an entry point for subcultural heritage in a fragmented scene, but more importantly it is FUN to listen to!!!
