My own project Nervous Corps:
I had an electronic drum kit that i ran thru my gear then proceeded to destroy rhythm (haha).
There is also the Nervous Corps 2xc30 release on Maternal Infection that is all drum driven noise, total destruction!
Well, fuck, I love your Nervous Corps work and had no idea that's how you got those sounds. I'm genuinely fascinated.
Thanks! It was only a few times that I used the e.drums for NC. I kinda wished I had done moar in that style, it was a LOT of fun recording.

Last week in Greensboro NC I caught a live performance from Memetic Survival Ensemble --
Two laptops were dishing out filtered samples from old commercials and television shows, while the drummer played aggressively and chaotically.

SLOW LIGHT
Eric King (Intensive Care, Column of Heaven, The Endless Blockade, etc.) effort from the previous decade. More "drums with noise" than "noise with drums", though. The ideas evidently eventually developed into his Black Iron Prison project with Matthew Carroll (also The Endless Blockade).

i was thinking of prurient's black vase, which has a great drum integration in his usual feedback stuff
I think Merzbow's kibako 2012 is one of the best Merzbow releases ever, lots of percussion and drums, sometimes sounding like taiko, sometimes just sounding like throwing a bunch of 2x4's down a staircase, and I love both. Also all th other sounds in it too feel visceral, like flesh, bone and sinew made out of wood rubbing against each other, and I really like that feel..
I am quite a simple being and mostly drawn to rhythm and low end sounds, so this type of noise appeals to me the most, I just wish many times that drums in noise would more often mean something else than some metalheads blastbeat solo and doublebass excercise. For example Sly and the Family Drone, especially with their collaborative album with Dead Neanderthals is really intense experience and I think there should be more stuff like that in the world. I would be happy.

Two releases I listened to recently feature a really interesting variation on noise with drums, namely noise with drum machines, specifically, the push-button, non-programmable ones. The first is the new Barrett E. Lediard tape on Buried in Slag and Debris, Comet Kept Crashing. The whole tape is great, but the track in question closes the show (aside, the tape also features some played drums - electronic I think). The other is the Stewart Skinner CD on Usagi, For the Happiness of the World. Coincidentally, the last track is also the one featuring the drum machine.
What’s so striking in both cases about the artists’ uses of the drum machines is that they’re arhythmic. While there is a pattern happening, what’s surrounding them doesn’t respond in a recognizable way. This is especially so on the Lediard tape, where the drums give the impression of running water. On the Skinner track, they do give you something to latch onto, but it has the opposite effect rhythm normally would, and adds to the disorientation.
Really fascinating use of a tool that doesn’t seem to be applicable to noise, but clearly can be. Certainly worth a listen.
