What's wrong with liking emo and metal? The bigger mistake was calling emo and metal whiny, which suggests they've never heard any emo or and metal.

Some people like to make music. Some people like to make noise. Merzbow and Whitehouse create non-musical sound art. It's not music. It's intentionally not music. It is however still artistic and creative and can be interesting and enjoyable to listen to.

Grindcore however is music, it's just fast and aggressive punk with harsh vocals.

Wikipedia betrays its own definition, however, by stating that "Music is an art form whose medium is sound and silence", and since noise is a form of sound, it technically is music. Additionally, Merzbow has done some really musical stuff, like Merzbeat.

Whitehouse has some more musical material too. But both acts are largely known for their less musical work. I mostly link to Wikipedia out of laziness, the article isn't perfect but it'll do.

Both Merzbow and Whitehouse are pretty good at "musical" work.

Anyways, what do you think distinguishes music from non-musical sound art?

Music has melody, harmony and rhythm. Non-music lacks at least one of those.
