Tooth

Not a noise-rock band in the strictest sense of the term but still pretty damn noisy, Tooth are second only to Kerbdog as my all-time favourite Irish band.  They arrived and left all too soon, leaving behind just a demo and an eight-track EP, That Corporate Emotion (2000).  You can check out the latter here.

Intense performers live, Tooth knew how to hit a groove but also how to construct songs that ebb and flow before building to an almighty crescendo.  Their sound takes in elements of metal, post-hardcore, alternative rock, indie, post-hardcore, and grunge.  To me they just sound like Tooth.
