Daniel Menche, and all the talented ones, compose their 'noise music', others just 'make some noise'.

Menche in particular uses a lot of the same techniques as the Musique Concrete composers, though not every time. Wolf Eyes, from what I've seen of them, appear more in the tradition of improvised noise rock like Last Exit (who are incredibly talented, but don't seem to compose).
Noise means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. For some, they use the label for anything they like, for others for anything they don't like. There was a great quote on Anakrid's My Space for a while that said, "If I had a nickel for every so-called "noise artist", I'd buy myself a cheap microphone and a distortion pedal, and then I'd be a "noise artist" myself!" Nonetheless, I still think most people describe Anakrid as "noise" and he's really damn good at it.
