Rarely has there ever been such a collection of pioneering bands of extreme music on one label at a special period of time. This DVD features many of the greatest bands ever such as MORBID ANGEL , CATHEDRAL , NAPALM DEATH , CARCASS , and ENTOMBED as well as some that never quite broke big such as GANDALF and DUB WAR . The most glaring and immediate characteristic of this compilation is the grainy visual quality of it all. The DVD looks as if it was taken off of an old VHS master tape. Some videos look worse than others. Immortalised finds redemption for this flaw in the fact that the material on the DVD is just too strong, diverse, and entertaining to deny. There are serious and dark videos such as “ God Emptiness ” from MORBID ANGEL and just some straight out annoying songs such as “ Meat ” by LINEA 77 . Comedic highlights can be found in the blatant musical equipment endorsements in SLEEP ’s “Dragonaut ” or the pro wrestling highlights in IRON MONKEY ’s “ Supergorgonizer .” There are also bonus live songs from bands in which Earache has already released live DVDs of. Whether you’re a metal newbie, a seasoned veteran looking to relive the good old days or just somewhere in between, there’s truly plenty for everyone.

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    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.

  • Ihsahn (N) Genre: Progressive Black Metal Label: Candlelight Album Titel: Arktis
    Band: Ihsahn (N) Genre: Progressive Black Metal Label: Candlelight Album Titel: Arktis. Spielzeit: 57:31 VÖ: 08.04.2016 Über den Frontmann der legendären Band Emperor, Ihsahn, muss man nicht mehr viel sagen. Mit "Arktis." veröffentlicht der norwegische Multiinstrumentalist sein mittlerweile sechstes Soloalbum und hat sich dafür einige Gäste ins Boot geholt. So geben sich unter anderem Einar Solberg (Leprous), Matt Heafy (Trivium), Jørgen Munkeby (Shining) und der norwegische Autor Hans Herbjornsrud die Ehre, was in mir sehr hohe Erwartungen weckt. "Disassembled" steigt direkt mit einem sehr eingängigen Riff ein, während die zweite Gitarre im Hintergrund einige atmosphärische Akzente setzt. Außerdem besticht das Stück (wie einige andere auch) mit grandiosen Klargesangspassagen, welche über die sphärische Musik nahezu dahingleiten. Doch auch die düstere und rohe Seite von Ihsahn hat weiterhin seinen Anteil an den Songs und bildet so einen beeindruckenden Kontrast. Im Verlauf des Albums zeigt sich immer wieder Ihsahns experimentelle Ader, zum Beispiel in den sehr elektronischen "South Winds" und "Frail", die wirken, als hätte man gnadenlos den progressiven Gedanken von Mayhem während ihrer "Grand Declaration of War"-Zeit auf die Spitze getrieben. Doch keine Angst, "Arktis." ist kein Album, dass vor Elektronik fast platzt. Im kompletten Gegensatz dazu stehen Songs wie "Until I Too Dissolve", welches viele Hard Rock-Anleihen vorweisen kann, das vom Saxophon (gespielt von Jørgen Munkeby) durchzogene "Crooked Red Line" oder der beeindruckende 9-minütige Übersong "Til Tor Ulven", über den ich noch nicht zu viel verraten möchte. Fazit: Ihsahn schafft es ein weiteres Mal, ein abwechslungsreiches und dauerhaft fesselndes Album vorzulegen, welches durch seine experimentelle Art sicher nicht nur innerhalb der Metalszene seine Befürworter finden wird.

  • TRUTH CORRODED BIOGRAPHY 2018 Drums: Jake Sproule, Vocals: Jason North, Guitar
    TRUTH CORRODED BIOGRAPHY 2018 Drums: Jake Sproule, Vocals: Jason North, Guitar: Trent Simpson, Bass: Greg Shaw, Lead Guitar: Chris Walden TRUTH CORRODED are an Australian band with a sound that captures elements of late 80's/early 90's inspired thrash and death metal, shaped by the likes of bands such as SLAYER, OBITUARY, SEPULTURA, KREATOR and EXHORDER, and then later influenced by acts such as MISERY INDEX, BEHEMOTH, NEUROSIS, DECAPITATED and REVOCATION. Taken together the influences have shaped a sound that is as confronting as the subject matter of the bands lyrics and pays homage to the go for the throat savagery of the bands roots. TRUTH CORRODED signed with leading US extreme metal label UNIQUE LEADER RECORDS which led to the release of the album titled 'Bloodlands' which was released in March 2019. Based on themes surrounding war and displacement, the album depicts the state of our times and the social and political impact that is having both in the bands home country Australia and abroad. The title refers to the growth of new conflict from conflicts past, with the suffering it creates spreading its roots. The album was recorded with session drummer Kevin Talley (SUFFOCATION, DYING FETUS, CHIMAIRA) – his third album with the band – and was mixed and mastered by renowned heavy music producer Chris 'ZEUSS' Harris (HATEBREED, SOULFLY, REVOCATION). The album also features guest appearances by Stephen Carpenter of DEFTONES, Terrance Hobbs of SUFFOCATION, Mark Kloeppel of MISERY INDEX and Ryan Knight, ex-THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER/ARSIS. Artwork for the album is designed by Gary Ronaldson at Bite Radius Designs (MISERY INDEX, BENIGHTED, PIG DESTROYER, THY ART IS MURDER) Commenting on the industry involved, vocalist Jason North offers "When we first set out to write the album we could not have imagined that we would work with the artists that have become involved.

  • It's Jerry's Birthday Chatham County Line
    K k JULY 2014 VOL. 26 #7 H WOWHALL.ORG KWOW HALL NOTESK g k IT’S JERRY’S BIRTHDAY On Friday, August 1, KLCC and Dead Air present an evening to celebrate Jerry Garcia featuring two full sets by the Garcia Birthday Band. Jerry Garcia, famed lead guitarist, songwriter and singer for The Grateful Dead and the Jerry Garcia Band, among others, was born on August 1, 1941 in San Francisco, CA. Dead.net has this to say: “As lead guitarist in a rock environment, Jerry Garcia naturally got a lot of attention. But it was his warm, charismatic personality that earned him the affection of millions of Dead Heads. He picked up the guitar at the age of 15, played a little ‘50s rock and roll, then moved into the folk acoustic guitar era before becoming a bluegrass banjo player. Impressed by The Beatles and Stones, he and his friends formed a rock band called the Warlocks in late 1964 and debuted in 1965. As the band evolved from being blues-oriented to psychedelic/experi- mental to adding country and folk influences, his guitar stayed out front. His songwriting partnership with Robert Hunter led to many of the band’s most memorable songs, including “Dark Star”, “Uncle John’s Band” and the group’s only Top 10 hit, “Touch of Grey”. Over the years he was married three times and fathered four daughters. He died of a heart attack CHATHAM COUNTY LINE in 1995.” On Sunday, July 27, the Community Tightrope also marks a return to Sound Fans have kept the spirit of Jerry Garcia alive in their hearts, and have spread the spirit Center for the Performing Arts proudly wel- Pure Studios in Durham, NC, where the and the music to new generations.

    JOURNAL OF LATEX CLASS FILES, VOL. 6, NO. 1, JANUARY 2007 1 Learning content similarity for music recommendation Brian McFee, Student member, IEEE, Luke Barrington, Student member, IEEE, and Gert Lanckriet, Member, IEEE Abstract—Many tasks in music information retrieval, such Query song as recommendation, and playlist generation for online radio, Similar songs + fall naturally into the query-by-example setting, wherein a user + queries the system by providing a song, and the system responds - - + + with a list of relevant or similar song recommendations.
