Diverse and powerful, Sonic Youth can dip from sweeping scale to oddball craziness in a heartbeat. I can't imagine any other noise group making a song as breathtaking as "Teen Age Riot" or "Tunic"
2 The Velvet Underground
The Velvet Underground was an American rock band, active between 1964 and 1973, formed in New York City.

These Guys Are the Best Anywhere!
Best noise rock in my opinion
4 The Jesus & Mary Chain
5 Arab On Radar
Every person in the band contributes to the style completely and has put on some of the best and most energetic shows that people have ever seen, the band has just enough energy and dissonance to make the perfect noise rock band, Most of their songs only YouTube aren't that great, buy the CD
6 Teenage Jesus & The Jerks
