I think so, too.  I know people who get nervous from listening to
Photek, but it's extremely relaxing for me.

And, of course, many people will not recognize any melodies in
industrial electronic music, but think it's pure noise.  It is
definitely noise, of course, but there is a well-defined melody, too.
Different wiring, yes.  Winterkälte is especially funny because it's
like military marches implemented with totally distorted noise. :-)
