E me permito agradecer, mesmo frente à temática dessa dissertação, por entender que Ele está supremo a quaisquer discussões sobre construções e manifestações religiosas humanas, até mesmo daquelas denominadas cristãs. Agradecer-Lhe pela Sua presença, que sinto e experimento por meio das pessoas, às quais, também sou grandemente grata nestes dois últimos anos de cotidiano: meu pai, Jaime, minha mãe, Rosane, meu noivo, Felippy e minha orientadora. Meu pai pela paciência em, por mais dois anos, socorrer-me quando os poucos recursos financeiros conseguidos por mim, nas horas de trabalho divididas com o mestrado, não eram suficientes mês a mês. Ele soube me dar essa oportunidade e tantas outras ao longo da minha vida, e reconheço na sua paciência o afeto, às vezes, tão difícil de demonstrar. Minha mãe por ter escolhido ser também minha amiga. E é pelo empenho, lucidez e sabedoria dela que só pude escolher também retribuir a amizade. Ela não pode me impedir de errar, mas a certeza de poder confiar nela me impediu de errar ainda mais. Nós duas poderíamos ter feito outras escolhas, mas as que fizemos, fizeram que ela excedesse sua parte nessa relação. Meu amor, Felippy, por saber estar presente, e também, ausente pra que eu pudesse pensar e escrever. Pela mansidão com a qual lidou com meus momentos desagradáveis e pelos tantos links sobre heavy metal que me enviou. Pelo amor que soube despertar e transparecer, amor que irá consumar-se em nossa união, datada para oito dias depois da defesa dessa dissertação. Enfim, também agradeço a professora Dolores, minha orientadora que soube ver por entre meu emaranhado de interesses e envolvimentos cotidianos, uma temática que ao mesmo tempo me desafiasse e fosse prazerosa. E também pela participação no o Grupo LabTecc, conduzido por ela, que trouxe um amadurecimento reflexivo imputado pelas leituras provocativas, desconcertantes e que eram estranhas aos meus pilares teóricos. 6 “Nasci em um tempo em que a maioria dos jovens haviam perdido a crença em Deus, pela mesma razão que os seus maiores a haviam tido – sem saber porquê. E então, porque o espírito humano tende naturalmente para criticar porque sente, e não porque pensa, a maioria desses jovens escolheu a Humanidade para sucedâneo de Deus. Pertenço, porém, àquela espécie de homens que estão sempre na margem daquilo a que pertencem, nem veem só a multidão de que são, senão também os grandes espaços que há ao lado. Por isso nem abandonei Deus tão amplamente como eles, nem aceitei nunca a Humanidade. Considerei que Deus, sendo improvável, poderia ser, podendo pois dever ser adorado; mas que a Humanidade, sendo uma mera ideia biológica, e não significando mais que a espécie animal humana, não era mais digna de adoração do que qualquer outra espécie animal. Este culto da humanidade, com seus ritos de Liberdade e igualdade, pareceu-me sempre uma revivescência dos cultos antigos, em que animais eram como deuses, ou os deuses tinham cabeças de animais. Assim não sabendo crer em Deus, e não podendo crer numa soma de animais, fiquei, como outros da orla das gentes, naquela distância de tudo a que comummente se chama a Decadência. A Decadência é a perda total da inconsciência; porque a inconsciência é o fundamento da vida. O coração, se pudesse pensar, pararia.” (Fernando Pessoa – Livro do Desassossego) 7 RESUMO A proposição de produção de presença (GUMBRECHT 2010), a noção de Stimmung (GUMBRECHT 2009) e o Heavy Metal Cristão (HMC) são os pilares desta dissertação. A tensão presente na estética, nos shows, nos ambientes e na música do HMC direciona-nos a um lugar onde elementos cristãos e profanos coexistem. Nos shows de Heavy Metal Cristão, a maior expressão do gênero musical, as sonoridades, as cores, os cheiros, as temperaturas, os objetos, as expressões faciais e corporais mesclam-se compondo uma Stimmung (atmosfera) peculiar de pulsação e tensão sacro-profana. Propomo-nos a pensar, nesta dissertação, os movimentos de “desinterdição de mundanidades” realizados por algumas vertentes do cristianismo e que permeiam o HMC; a expansão das materialidades que delimitam o HMC; e a Stimmung que toca e envolve os corpos. Palavras-chave: Materialidades, Stimmung, Gumbrecht, Cristianismo e Heavy Metal Cristão. 8 ABSTRACT Proposition production of presence (Gumbrecht 2010), the notion of Stimmung (Gumbrecht 2009) and Heavy Metal Christian (HMC) are the pillars of this dissertation. The tension in the aesthetic, the shows, the environments and music of the HMC directs us to a place where Christians and secular elements coexist. In Christian Heavy Metal concerts, the greatest expression of the musical genre, the sounds, the colors, the smells, temperatures, objects, facial expressions and body mingle composing a Stimmung (atmosphere) peculiar pulse and tension sacral profane. We propose to think this dissertation movements "of desinterdição mundanities" performed by a few strands of Christianity and that permeate the HMC, the expansion of materiality that delimit the HMC, and Stimmung that touches and engages the bodies. Keywords: Materialities, Stimmung, Gumbrecht, Christianity and Christian Heavy Metal. 9 ÍNDICE DE ILUSTRAÇÕES Figura 1 - Quadros pintados pelo Pastor Batista e pendurados nas paredes da lanchonete anexa à Crash Church São Paulo (Arquivo pessoal da autora). .......................................................... 69 Figura 2 - Stryper em três diferentes momentos.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

En jämförande studie mellan kristen och sekulär metal Daniel Berg 2014 Filosofie kandidatexamen Musik Luleå tekniska universitet Institutionen för konst, kommunikation och lärande JESUS - världens första rocker? En jämförande studie av kristen och sekulär metal Daniel Berg Handledare: Harri Ihanus Luleå Tekniska Universitet C-uppsats Musik Institutionen för Konst, kommunikation och Lärande (KKL) 1 ABSTRAKT Kristen metal? Kan man verkligen kalla något kristen metal? Heavy metal är ju en rebellisk reaktion mot en samhällsstruktur av människor som inte känner sig hemma där. Och kristendomen är ju en religiös rörelse som står för ordning, reda, renhet och kärlek. Eller? Syftet med denna studie är har varit att studera likheter och skillnader i låtstruktur, dynamik och klangfärg mellan kristna och sekulära metalband och se om de används på samma sätt i förhållande till texten. Jag har gjort en komparativ analys av låtar av kristna och sekulära metalband och tittat på möjliga likheter och skillnader. Detta innefattar även en konstnärlig del där jag, i relation till det analyserade materialet, skrivit två låtar själv och dokumenterat dessa i klingande form. Som material till denna studie har jag använt mig av vetenskapliga artiklar, låtmaterial samt intervjuat pastor Bob Beeman från Nashville, som är en av pionjärerna bakom kristen metal.

  • Christian Heavy Metal Music, “Family Values,” and Youth Culture, 1984–1994
    Metal Missionaries to the Nation | 103 Metal Missionaries to the Nation: Christian Heavy Metal Music, “Family Values,” and Youth Culture, 1984–1994 Eileen Luhr n June 26, 1987, members of the Christian metal band Stryken attended a Motley Crüe concert in San Antonio, Texas. It was not Ouncommon for Christian bands to attend secular concerts; indeed, many bands explained that they did so in order to keep current on musical trends. But Stryken arrived at the show ready for confrontation. According to the Christian metal magazine White Throne, the band, “wearing full suits of armor . and bearing a 14 x 8 foot wooden cross,” “stormed the doors of the arena, pushing through the crowds of teenagers and television cameras down the corridor towards the inlet to the main stage.” At this point, the “boys in armor” erected the cross and “began to preach to the massed [sic] of kids who were gathering all around.” The authorities quickly intervened, and, “ordered to remove ‘the cross’ or face arrest, the members of Stryken continued to speak openly about Jesus Christ, and were one by one hand-cuffed and forcibly removed from the arena.”1 Stryken’s actions—which invoked the persecuted early Christians described in the Acts of the Apostles—offer some insights into Christian metal during the 1980s. Motley Crüe’s music and the lifestyle of its members were designed to shock middle America, but the band had become one of the most successful acts of the 1980s. By upstaging Motley Crüe’s over-the-top behavior with their bold act, Stryken attempted to claim heavy metal’s reputation for outrageousness for Christianity.

  • Recommended Ccm Artists & Bands of a Specific Musical
    RECOMMENDED CHRISTIAN-LABEL ARTISTS & BANDS OF A SPECIFIC MUSICAL GENRE In compiling this list I realize that some artists/bands mainly perform one particular style of music and other artists perform across several musical styles or genres. I have therefore endeavored to be as specific as possible and name particular albums of the artist/band that, in my view, are outstanding in a particular musical genre. NB. ‘v.s.’ stands for ‘vocal similarities’ ‘m.s.’ stands for ‘musical similarities’ Adult Contemporary/Pop Bob Carlisle – what a voice! John Elefante – brilliant vocalist (formerly with Kansas) Jon Gibson – the closest CCM gets to Stevie Wonder (‘Body & Soul’ & ‘Love Education’ CDs highly recommended) Amy Grant – esp. her ‘Lead Me On’ & ‘Behind The Eyes’ CD’s Paul Q-Pek: ‘Touch The Ground’ CD (v.s. to Peter Gabriel at times) Connie Scott: ‘Live To Tell’ (her strongest effort) Michael W. Smith: esp. his ‘The Big Picture’ CD (his magnum opus – contains great keyboard work) Out Of The Grey – quality ‘art pop’ if there is such a genre (great female vocals and guitar work) 2nd Chapter Of Acts – the pioneer of multi-vocal groups (they harmonized well without sounding ‘sugary/syrupy’) Sheila Walsh – esp. her ‘Shadowlands’ CD (excellent) Roma Waterman – she possesses the voice range of England’s Kate Bush (with v.s. at times); one of Australia’s best female vocalists Alternative/Indie/Modern Rock Adam Again – anything by them, but esp. their ‘Homeboys’ CD ApologetiX: ‘Ticked’ CD (a brilliant re-working [parodies] of well-known mainstream alternative/indie songs) Battered Fish – esp. the ‘Modern’ CD (brilliant!) The Choir – anything by them (‘Chase The Kangaroo’ & ‘Circle Slide’ CD’s are absolute alternative gems) Dear Ephesus: ‘The Absent Sounds Of Me’ CD (brilliant emo!) Dumpster: ‘See Through Me’ & ‘sky-fi’ CD’s Henrys, The: ‘She’s My Hallelujah’ EP (brilliant and oh-so-laid-back, leaving you wanting for more) Michael Knott – esp.
