I suppose personal situations affect how one would view the nature of the music. I think it is kind of dependent upon how certain noises make people feel. Things like feedback (outside of your traditional three second hardcore intro/outro) and delay/reverb swells have always been something I've associated with feelings of longing, loss or melancholy.
On the flipside of that, really crunchy, low end harsh noise walls and really stark, sharp single-tone square waves (which are things that most people seem to generally find unnerving/uncomfortable) I almost always find very comforting and soothing.
Maybe my real parents were killed by a giant blast of guitar feedback when I was little. I don't know.
