  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • Where Do Your Jeans Come From? Emilia Is 24 Years Old and Works in a Factory Which Makes Fashion Jeans in Asia
    Read the text. Where do your jeans come from? Emilia is 24 years old and works in a factory which makes fashion jeans in Asia. She lives in a camp for the workers near the factory. She works 75 hours a week. In Europe the average working week is 35–40 hours a week. Emilia earns $5 a day which is less than the minimum wage. She finds it difficult to buy enough food to eat. The minimum wage in the UK is £5 per hour. Emilia works 7 days a week and only gets time off a couple of times a year. ‘Another terrible thing is the production quotas. I have to make a certain number of pairs of jeans every day. So I work and sleep. Every day is like that.’ she says. So Emilia does overtime without being paid. She also cannot join a union. ‘Once, a group of workers went on strike to ask for better wages and a transport and food allowance. All of them were sacked.’ But it doesn’t have to be like that From Africa to America, companies and consumers are changing. Following criticism of sweatshops (factories where workers work in terrible conditions for very low pay), there is increasing interest in ethical clothing – clothing which doesn’t exploit the workers who made it and recognises their rights like: Think English Pre-Intermediate • Unit 3 p.29 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE • a decent wage • paid holidays • the right to join a union • a clean and healthy working environment. British shoppers spent $50 million on ethical products in 2005.
