  • “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.

  • Dischord Records 3819 BEECHER ST
    FUGAZi "First Demo" dischord rEcords DIS181 DIS181CD 11-song CD DIS181V 11-song LP+MP3 Release Date: November 18, 2014 Ian MacKaye - vocals, guitar Guy Picciotto - vocals Joe Lally - bass Brendan Canty - drums In early January 1988 and after only ten shows, Fugazi decided to go into Inner Ear Studio to see what their music sounded like on tape. Despite the fact that Ian, Joe, and Brendan had been playing together for nearly a year, it was still early days for the band. Guy had only been a full member of Fugazi for a few months and only sang lead on one song ("Break In"). It would be nearly another year before he would start playing guitar with the band. At that time, the studio was still located in the basement of engineer Don Zientara's family house. It was a familiar space as almost all of the members of Fugazi had recorded there with their previous bands (Teen Idles, Minor Threat, Deadline, Insurrection, Rites of Spring, Skewbald, Embrace, and One Last Wish). Joey Picuri (aka Joey P), who would later become one of Fugazi's longtime sound engineers, joined the band for the initial tracking. The sessions only lasted a couple of days, but tour dates and indecision about the tape would delay the final mix for another two months. Though the band was at first pleased with the results, it soon became clear that this tape would remain a demo as new songs were being written and the older songs were evolving and changing shape while the band was out on tour.

Davis: And I’m John Davis. I’m the performing arts metadata archivist at the University of Maryland. Today is June 13th, 2017. So, we're here to talk about your work that you did with fanzines in Washington D.C., particularly in the… Sayenga: My juvenilia, yes. Davis: Yes, [laugh] in the 1980s. I’m basically trying to speak to people to hear their stories about why they did zines, how they did zines. What were the experiences like? What did they take from it? You today, how do you connect to it? All these things. I’m just kind of trying to review that with some people who have done fanzines, who are from D.C. and just see kind of where it took them, as well as how they did it. So as far as Greed goes, first issue was I think 1985? Let’s consult. Sayenga: Good question. I’m going to look it up here. Let’s see. Oh, there’s a picture of—man, late Winter 1986. [laugh] Davis: OK. Very specific. Sayenga: So basically probably almost 1987, which makes it—no, ’86 is right though, because I know it took a while to actually pull it all together. So, well, sort of relatively—it seemed like a while at the time, because everything seemed to take forever. But actually when you look at it, it all flowed together with amazing speed.

  • Alt-Nation: New Discs and Summer Shows
    Alt-Nation: New Discs and Summer Shows The McGunks – Highlights for Lowlifes Photo by John Capitão It’s been a while since we had some new material from everyone’s favorite pub-punks, The McGunks! They did have a live album last year, but what the world really needed was some fresh new material from The McGoons. The McGunks give The Pogues a run for their money when it comes to drinking songs. That is cool, I like to drink. Highlights for Lowlifes kicks off in vintage McGunks style with “Bad Decision” about staying at the bar a little too long. “Beer and a Beaten’” reminds a little of The Queers with the harmonies. Singer/guitarist Bob Kadlec has a very gruff voice, but he knows how to use it. “Dead to Me” has a fist pumping sing-a-long chorus and a voice that gets you jumping. It reminds me a lot of the second album by Marky Ramone and The Intruders, The Answers to Your Problems, which was an excellent record despite my hatred for the wig man. The McGunks throw a curveball with the instrumental “Halfway to Hell,” which while an enjoyable punk romp, it’s debatable whether that would better be left as something to open shows with. “One for The Road” is a slower mid-tempo that has a tinge of a Supersuckers flavor. “Speaking of Crazy” revs thing back up while serving as an open letter to someone who is apparently bat shit loco. “The Devil Was Right” is a slab of just really well done punk rock and is my favorite tune of the bunch.
