Instead of being consumed, they are historical artifacts to be studied and “read.” Or at least that is a common approach within cultural studies. But dated pop artifacts have another, living function. Throughout much of 1973 and early 1974, several working- class teens from west London’s Shepherd’s Bush district struggled to become a rock band. Like tens of thousands of such groups over the years, they learned to play together by copying older songs that they all liked. For guitarist Steve Jones and drummer Paul Cook, that meant the short, sharp rock songs of London bands like the Small Faces, the Kinks, and the Who. Most of the songs had been hits seven to ten 1 2 Introduction years earlier. They also learned some more current material, much of it associated with the band that succeeded the Small Faces, the brash “lad’s” rock of Rod Stewart’s version of the Faces. Ironically, the Rod Stewart songs they struggled to learn weren’t Rod Stewart songs at all.

  • Steve Jones Les Paul Custom
    STEVE JONES LES PAUL CUSTOM With just one album, 1977’s Never Mind the Bollocks Here’s the Sex Pistols, Steve Jones revitalized rock guitar—shaking it back to its brutal three-chord roots, and defining the sound of punk. This thrilling, groundbreaking album catapulted the band’s four members into a chaotic ride that lasted all of one tumultuous year. Throughout, a white mid ’70s Les Paul Custom was defiantly slung over Jones’ shoulder as he delivered some of the raunchiest—and surprisingly melodic—playing the first wave of English punk ever produced. Over the years, this white Les Paul Custom with pin-up girl stickers has become one of rock and roll’s most iconic symbols. The Gibson Custom Shop Steve Jones Les Paul Custom is a painstaking recreation of this legendary instrument. The Gibson Custom Shop Steve Jones Les Paul Custom is Gibson’s heartfelt tribute to one of rock’s most unsung and unlikely heroes, and to the guitar he used to make history.

L’aventure de deux êtres dont la mort est liée symbo- liquement à celle d’une culture et d’une musique qui ont révolutionné l’Angleterre à la fin des années 70. En 1977, Sid Vicious était le bassiste des Sex Pistols, un groupe qui défrayait la chronique par ses outrances et ses provocations. Nancy Spungen était une groupie, venue à Londres de Philadelphie. Leur amour fut passionné, violent et de courte durée. Le 12 octobre 1978, on découvrait le corps poignardé de Nancy dans une chambre du Chelsea Hotel, à New York. Sid Vicious fut arrêté et accusé du meurtre. Le 2 février 1979, avant l’ouverture de son procès, il mourait d’overdose. Pour certains, Sid et Nancy furent les héros tragiques d’une génération perdue. Pour d’autres, de vulgaires dé- linquants, des drogués pathétiques. Alex Cox a eu, dès 1980, le projet d’un film sur les Sex Pistols. « Alors que je travaillais sur le script, je me suis rendu compte que l’aspect le plus intéressant du groupe, c’était l’histoire de Sid et de sa petite amie.

    The Sex Pistols and the London Mob Michael Ewen Kitson Doctor of Philosophy University of Western Sydney, 2008 From my point of view it’s got nothing to do with music. And you could build up a whole thesis just on that thing. Marcus Lipton MP Johnny Rotten? Sid Vicious? Aren’t they characters from a Dickens novel? Kenny Rogers, country music singer1 1 Barry Cain, 77 Sulphate Strip, Ovolo, Cornwall 2007: p.101.

  • SURFING for PUNKS: the INTERNET and the PUNK SUBCULTURE in NEW JERSEY by AARON ROBERT FURGASON a Dissertation Submitted To
    SURFING FOR PUNKS: THE INTERNET AND THE PUNK SUBCULTURE IN NEW JERSEY by AARON ROBERT FURGASON A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Communication, Information and Library Studies written under the direction of Professor Linda Steiner And approved by ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2008 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION SURFING FOR PUNKS: THE INTERNET AND THE PUNK SUBCULTURE IN NEW JERSEY BY AARON ROBERT FURGASON Dissertation Director Professor Linda Steiner This study examines the influence of the Internet on the punk subculture in New Jersey. Previous research by academics on the effect of the Internet on popular music has centered on the impact of Napster and peer-to-peer networks on the distribution of recordings (Alexander, 2002; Ayres & Williams, 2004; Bishop, 2004; Daniel & Klimis, 1999; Fox, 2004; Mardesich, 1999; & Oberholzer & Strumpf, 2004). However, unexamined is the influence of the Internet on a specific music subculture, punk. This is important because the subculture is occupied mainly by youth engaged with both the Internet and punk music. The Internet's influence on the punk subculture is a particularly important area of study because the Internet alters how participants in the subculture (punk fans, bands and independent labels) communicate with one another, as well as changes the distribution of punk artifacts and information. ii Central to this study is the history of the major labels' dominance over the distribution and promotion of punk music, a domination examined via critical political economy theory.

  • PUNK by Jon Savage I
    PUNK By Jon Savage I: INTRO I’m a street-walking cheetah with a heartfull of napalm… It starts with a feeling. I’m the runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb…. A feeling so intense and so out there that it struggles to make itself heard. I am the world’s forgotten boy… These screams of rage fall on deaf ears in the woozy hedonism of the early seventies. The singer is: too dumb, too blank, too violent. A dose of Amphetamine among the Quaaludes. He cuts himself on stage, flings himself into the audience…. Sick boy, sick boy, learning to be cruel… ..trying to get a reaction, any reaction. Anything but this boredom. Anything but this stoner ooze that avoids the issue of what it is to be young, outcast, and ready to murder a world. Is there concrete all around or is it in my head? The bloom is off youth culture as the promises of the sixties fade. The charismatic dark stars of the early seventies, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, catch this mood but by mid decade they are too successful and too old - sixties people themselves – to embody this feeling. They can write as observers but they aren’t inside it. I’m getting tired of being alone…. The secret heart of pop culture shifts from the country to the inner city. This is a dark, dangerous world. It’s a jungle out there. WWW.TEACHROCK.ORG Somethin’ comin’ at me all the time…. But after sundown, when everyone has fled, there is space. The new breed find the feeling in the midst of emptiness.
