I'm with SRT & Lawrence on the PE front, there is however a lot of chaff amongst the wheat, much of it is a just noise for noise sake,folk who are listening to Whitehouse and nothing else and copying it, a noise equivalent of Motley Crue. Whitehouse are spot on, the best of Merzbow the same[though everyones idea of his best seems to be different], heard a couple of CCCC albums that are great.

Also Dog3000 is right, there is a slew of underground releases that cover a bit of everything, people who have grown up listening to Slayer,The VU,Dub,Mozart,Bubblegum,Madonna & Sonic Youth and want to play it all at the same time, sometimes it works, a lot of the time it's horrible.
Look at Cascadian Black Metal [Cascadia doesn't exist, it's not really black or very metal] MV & EE and the merrie horde of others, Bardo Pond and all the bastard sons of the DEad, and the brits have Gnod,Bong,A Band and of course Squid,Spaceship and all the others on here making their own mad racket. Rock is very much alive but instead of some great hairy beasts galumphing across the plains trumpeting loudly and crushing all underfoot it's now populated by a host of small dashing and mobile in mind and style freaks.They are harder to find but once you sight them they are far more impressive.
