True, which is the Western ears perception of it. Put a dead chicken head on the American family table to eat and see how they react. Is the chicken head evil? Wouldn't be to a different culture's family. Same goes for music. The evil lies in the perception of it.
If you think this through, there are implications beyond music regarding our perception of how we label things.

Imagine static.
Now imagine there's a rhythm and the static sort of changes in key.
There's more to noisecore (nothing that saves it) but that's the foundation of it.
