It's a massively vague term but if it sounds loud and harsh and rejects most formal ideas of songwriting then you're probably on the right track. I wouldn't say most shoegaze stuff can be classified as it but no-wave is generally very similar, i'd be happy to class Swans as noise rock.
Melt Banana. Lightning Bolt and F
uck Buttons as previously mentioned are big daddies, here's a couple of other highlight bands for me..
