Type one: Akira Yamaoka has composed a haunting acoustic guitar refrain. Occasionally, spare additional instrumentation may be expertly added. The melody is heart wrenching, the emotions apparent in each note, and just hearing the opening to the piece will make you shed a single tear.
Type two: Akira Yamaoka has thrown a microphone in a washing machine.

This is what I think of when anyone says Akira Yamaoka. I get confused when I hear of them making music that does not sound like this.
My favourite yamaoka "scraping metal objects together" track is the bit at 1:24 in silent heaven. https://youtu.be/PuNOnFa-q3Y
