Hello - I'm Joe. Few years away from 40. Living in northwest NJ, technically the Lehigh Valley, where punk/hardcore/grind/noise does not (no longer?) happen. There used to be decent hardcore shows at illegal venues and warehouses, but that was 15-20+ years ago. If it's still happening I'm very unaware. I think I need to start driving to Wilkes Barre and New Brunswick.

I try to keep up with what's happening on Instagram, but I'm disliking that spot more everyday. Happened to go on Facebook today after years of not using it and saw an old post for this forum. I was just (again) complaining to a friend about the lack of forums, and now here I am.

Been messing around with equipment for probably 10 years now, started trying to record and release things on my own around 7 years ago under my real name. May change that soon.

Thanks for starting this!

Hey I'm Matt, from Vancouver originally, now living in Poland. I mostly listen more than make noise but I muck around here and there. No releases as yet, just a hobby.

You're not too far from me, all things considered. Post if you come do a show down here in San Diego!

Thanks for the warm welcome. Are you in a project, I don’t book very often but that might change. But likewise, if you play out in Los Angeles, lemme know. *Aside* anyone who books in San Diego, I’d love to play.

I’ve approached Stay Strange in the past but haven’t heard back from them recently. Nevertheless, I’ll post in Shows and reach out to you if/when I do!

cheers,

Yes, I am 1/2 of an industrial project called Mindcrawler---we are hoping to organize a debut show sometime later this year (probably in the San Diego area)!

Stay Strange is a great guy, but he seemingly goes from booking no shows to a nice handful all at once. Not sure when you reached out, but right now feels like a pretty slow time for him (he did a few nice events in the last few months, though).

Is there somewhere to hear your recordings?

Pleasure to meet you all. I'm Shaan aka HHP, 23, currently located in Mason OH. Been making free improv guitar-based noise since 2016 (back then it was The Human Hot Pocket). Started out with a noise collective called Noise Samurai/Static Swords, then did some tracks on my own and with local punk act Soy before becoming a full member, recently started my own post-rock/noise act Juicebox after our first practice was good enough to be an album, and am still making guitar based noise today. Got a double album out in a little under two weeks inspired by a recent watch of fist of the north star https://hhpnoise.bandcamp.com/album/south-star-pummeler, and currently compiling ideas for a fnaf based noise record. Big fan of basically all music, currently doing a deep dive into neil young rn.

Excited to discover new stuff and share my stuff with y'all here!

Hi I'm Izzy, mid 20s trans gal from Ohio. Super involved in the noise rock and hardcore scene here in Columbus, but also quite interested in PE/HN stuff, plus wanna incorporate elements of harsher PE stuff into my next noise rock project. Been listening to HN/PE on and off since 16.

Vancouver, BC, Canada

My name is Chris. I got bored of metal years ago and needed something harsher and less limited.
After being forced to listen to music at various jobs throughout my adult life, as well as in ads and public spaces, I need noise to stay sane.

I make music under the name MEANINGLESS.

I hope you're having a good day, whatever that is.

Howdy. Yet another finn, decided to start actually communicate with people about this thing i've been obsessed with since I was a teenager. I practise noise but am okay at best. I won't be doing a show anytime soon, but it's a little goal I do have in mind!! It's not until now that I've secured the means to record, play loud and maybe even buy more gear, so I decided I'm actually gonna go for it this time instead of just considering it for another ten years.
