BEAUTIFUL NOISE is an in-depth exploration of a music movement in the late twentieth century, a fascinating period when some innovative musicians mixed guitar noise into conventional pop song structures while maintaining a philosophy of letting the music speak for itself. Although many of the people interviewed are notoriously press shy they have opened up about their music and experiences from over 20 years ago, how they defied the rules and became sonic innovators that have inspired so many.

Captured from a spot on the floor. Considering the angle, this isn’t that bad of a recording. There are plenty of great close ups. Unfortunately the audio track is somewhat distorted. Poorly transferred from a low generation source.
