Stoner Rock
Stoner rock is a heavy, riff‑centric style that blends the weight and doom of early heavy metal with the groove and expansive jams of late‑60s/70s psychedelic and acid rock. It is marked by fuzz‑drenched, down‑tuned guitars, thick bass tones, and relaxed but powerful mid‑tempo grooves. Songs often emphasize hypnotic, repetitive riffs; extended instrumental passages; and a warm, vintage analog sound. Vocals tend to be laid‑back or gritty rather than operatic, and lyrical themes commonly explore the desert, space, altered states, mythology, and countercultural imagery. The overall vibe is earthy and immersive—equal parts head‑nodding groove, psychedelic haze, and Sabbath‑born heaviness.

Noise
Noise is an experimental music genre that uses non-traditional sound sources, distortion, feedback, and extreme dynamics as primary musical materials. Instead of emphasizing melody, harmony, or conventional rhythm, it focuses on texture, density, timbre, and the physical presence of sound. Practitioners sculpt saturated walls of sound, piercing feedback, metallic clatter, contact-mic scrapes, tape hiss, and electronic interference into works that can be confrontational or meditative. Performances often highlight process and immediacy—improvisation, body movement, and site-specific acoustics—while recordings can range from lo-fi cassette overload to meticulously layered studio constructions. Though rooted in early avant-garde ideas, the genre coalesced as a distinct practice in the late 1970s and 1980s, especially through Japan’s ‘Japanoise’ scene, and subsequently influenced numerous styles across industrial, punk-adjacent, and experimental electronic music.

Rock
Rock is a broad family of popular music centered on amplified instruments, a strong backbeat, and song forms that foreground riffs, choruses, and anthemic hooks. Emerging from mid‑20th‑century American styles like rhythm & blues, country, and gospel-inflected rock and roll, rock quickly expanded in scope—absorbing folk, blues, and psychedelic ideas—while shaping global youth culture. Core sonic markers include electric guitar (often overdriven), electric bass, drum kit emphasizing beats 2 and 4, and emotive lead vocals. Rock songs commonly use verse–chorus structures, blues-derived harmony, and memorable melodic motifs, ranging from intimate ballads to high‑energy, stadium‑sized performances.
