Depends on the listener, I guess. For me personally, I find noise to be easy to get excited about at first, but I have also found it has a faster rate of burnout. I have been listening to more Borbetomagus of late myself, having gone through a phase 10 or so years ago. I think it was because I recently go to see and spend smoe time with them, and they rekindled my interest through their unbelievable stamina and dedication to their craft.

you've hung w/ Borbetomagus?!
thats cool!
Gamelan is a hugely underapreciated type of ethnic/world music, it is so underecorded even in this day in age, so its hard to make the comparison to noise or pop or whatever... You just don't know it may be possible to go to Bali and here some utter bad Gamelan music tribe that just hasn't hit the market yet...
i tend to belive that as much good music exists in the world there is at least some bad no matter what it is...
