Noise Pop is a music genre that combines characteristics of pop music with elements of noise and experimental sound. It began in the mid-1980s, with artists who incorporated distorted guitars and intense sound textures into the melodic, pop structures of their songs. The result is an unconventional, yet charming harmony that creates a unique acoustic experience. The lyrics usually deal with emotional themes, while the dynamic between noise and melody gives Noise Pop a distinctive character in the alternative music scene.
