If you live in the metropolitan area of NYC, you're fortunate enough to be able to view this show, even if you don't have cable. New York Noise fills a niche as yet unfilled by any other music channel or show - promoting small NYC bands, selected small bands from other cities, and even national acts that are furthering the art of music. Interspersed amongst videos are a slue of hosts, from the creators of Pitchfork Media , to band members, artists on a blind date, and more. Bands that have been featured include: Kings of Convenience, Baby Dayliner, dirty old french-man Serge Gainsbourg, Pavement, Cocteau Twins and other Beggars Group artists, Shout Out-Louds, and even rooftop performances by the Brooklyn band Bishop Allen. If you love GOOD independent (and even not so independent) rock/pop/hip hop, watch New York Noise.
