Related Research Articles. Zwan was an American alternative rock supergroup that was formed by Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin, lead singer/guitarist and drummer of The Smashing Pumpkins respectively, after they disbanded in December 2000. Other members included bassist Paz Lenchantin, of A Perfect Circle, and guitarists David Pajo and Matt Sweeney of various prior bands and projects. The band released only one album, Mary Star of the Sea , in 2003, before breaking up acrimoniously that same year during their world tour to promote the album. Following the disbanding, Corgan released a solo album, TheFutureEmbrace before reforming the Smashing Pumpkins in 2005, with Chamberlin in 2006. Despite allusions to multiple album's worth of material written by band members, no further material has surfaced beyond their only studio album, and none of the material has ever been revisited in performances by any of the members outside of a brief 2017 tour by Corgan. In his solo shows in the summer of 2019, Corgan played "Honestly" and "Endless Summer" on his European summer tour at some dates. William Patrick Corgan is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and professional wrestling promoter. He is best known as the lead singer, primary songwriter, guitarist, and only permanent member of the rock band the Smashing Pumpkins. He is currently the owner and promoter of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). Thirteenth Step is the second studio album by American rock band A Perfect Circle, released on September 16, 2003. The album sold well, charting at the number 2 position on the Billboard 200 in its premiere week, selling over 231,000 copies and staying on the charts for 78 weeks. The album went on to be certified as gold on November 4, 2003 and as platinum on March 24, 2006 by the RIAA. Three singles were released from the album, "Weak and Powerless", which topped both the Mainstream Rock Tracks and Modern Rock Tracks, followed by "The Outsider" and "Blue", which also charted on the respective charts. This is their last album until 2018's Eat the Elephant to featured all-new material, as their next album, 2004's Emotive featured the cover songs, despite two new songs introduced on the album. Machina/The Machines of God is the fifth studio album by the American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, released on February 29, 2000, by Virgin Records. A concept album, it marked the return of drummer Jimmy Chamberlin and was intended to be the band's final official LP release prior to their first break up in 2000. A sequel album— Machina II/The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music —was later released independently via the Internet, and limited quantities for the physical version. Adore is the fourth studio album by the American alternative rock band the Smashing Pumpkins, released on June 2, 1998 by Virgin Records. After the multi-platinum success of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and a subsequent yearlong world tour, follow-up Adore was considered "one of the most anticipated albums of 1998" by MTV. Recording the album proved to be a challenge as the band members struggled with lingering interpersonal problems and musical uncertainty in the wake of three increasingly successful rock albums and the departure of drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. Frontman Billy Corgan would later characterize Adore as made by "a band falling apart". Corgan has also mentioned he was going through a divorce while recording the album. Birds of Pray is the sixth studio album by Live, released in 2003. The first single, "Heaven" became the band's most successful single in several years, reaching number 59 on the Billboard Hot 100 . Birds of Pray was Live's final release on Radioactive/MCA. They signed with Epic in 2005. Paz Lenchantin is an Argentine-American musician. She has been the bass guitarist, vocalist and violinist of the alternative rock band Pixies since 2014. She is known for playing bass or strings with various bands, including Entrance, A Perfect Circle, Silver Jews, Zwan, and Queens of the Stone Age. TheFutureEmbrace is the debut solo album by American musician Billy Corgan, frontman of the alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins. Released in June 2005, the album's sound was markedly different from most of Corgan's earlier work, eschewing his characteristic "drums, bass, (and) big-guitars sound" in favor of an electronic sound punctuated with heavily distorted guitar parts reminiscent of shoegazing. Out of Exile is the second studio album by American rock supergroup Audioslave. It was released on May 23, 2005 internationally and a day later in the United States, by Epic Records and Interscope Records. It is the band's only album to chart at number one on the Billboard 200 chart. Four singles were released from the album, which were "Be Yourself", "Your Time Has Come", "Doesn't Remind Me", and "Out of Exile". "Doesn't Remind Me" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance at the 48th Grammy Awards in 2006. Linda Strawberry is the American artist, director, editor and musician, best known as Billy Corgan's creative partner, and Creative Director for Smashing Pumpkins, including Shiny And Oh So Bright Tour in 2018. The Breakthrough is the seventh studio album by American R&B singer Mary J. Blige. It was released on December 20, 2005, by Geffen Records. Blige recorded the album with a host of songwriters and record producers, including 9th Wonder, Rodney Jerkins, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Bryan-Michael Cox, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, Raphael Saadiq, Chucky Thompson, Cool & Dre, Ron Fair, and will.i.am. " Honestly " is a song by American alternative rock group Zwan. It was the first single from their album, Mary Star of the Sea . The song was written by Billy Corgan. Ana Lenchantin is an Argentine-American cellist of French ancestry, known for frequent appearances with American rock bands such as Train, Into the Presence, The Eels, Gnarls Barkley, No Doubt, Arthur Lee and Love, A Perfect Circle, Nine Inch Nails, Queens of the Stone Age, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Brian Wilson, Billy Corgan, Billy Howerdel, Glenn Hughes, Jenny Lewis, Melissa Auf der Maur, Damien Rice, Kerli, Lenka, and many more.

  • “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.

  • Origins: Melissa Auf Der Maur on Learning to Grow a Cultural Space from Scratch
    September 5, 2018 - As told to Willa Köerner, 3564 words. Tags: Art, Film, Music, Beginnings, Failure, Success, Income. On learning to grow a cultural space from scratch Musician and Basilica Hudson Co-Founder Melissa Auf der Maur shares how much commitment and determination it took to transform an industrial-era factory into a sustainable, community-centric cultural venue. Can you describe what Basilica Hudson feels like and looks like as a space? Well, the central muse is the building. It’s an 1880s former forge and foundry of steel railway wheels, which was the initial operation. But there were many, many boom-and-bust operations in the space. The last incarnation was a glue factory through the ’80s. It’s a factory of steel, concrete, brick, and terracotta tiles, with a classic turret-window hallway at the peak of the building, inspired by old byzantine basilicas. It looks like an ancient church, mixed with an old industrial-era factory. Behind Basilica is the Hudson River, the Catskill mountains, and a lot of industrial derelict that gives it an abandoned-world feel. It’s been left standing while most of these types of buildings have either fallen apart or been knocked down to make new buildings. We’re in a cross section of urban, industrial, and rural, and it all feels like an illustration of American history, in that we can see all that man has done in its attempt to interfere with the surface of the planet. So, both the location and the lost era of industrial failure inform what happens in the building, and inform the always-evolving program that happens here.

  • Place and Punk: the Heritage Significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West
    Place and Punk: The heritage significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West William Kenneth Smith MA By Research University of York Archaeology May 2017 Abstract Academic institutions and the heritage industry are now actively seeking to understand the wider social, cultural and economic processes which surround the production and consumption of popular music histories. Music is a local creation; it is created through a flux of internal and external influences, and is bound up in questions of economy, networks, art, identity and technology. In the early 1990s the Pacific North West of the United States of America gave birth to what became known as the musical genre of ‘grunge’. It developed into a distinctive genre, presenting a style and sound which propagated within the confines of a specific time and place. As construction sites continue to emerge throughout the Pacific North West, the impact of music still provides an essential contribution to the regions character and culture. Despite this, countercultural pasts are vulnerable; not only to the passage of time but also the processes of development, gentrification and marginalization. This research explores the heritage significance of the Pacific North West punk scene. It presents a historiography of punk and an appraisal of the scholarly discourse surrounding place. This study utilizes artifacts, sites and oral histories to explore countercultural material and memories as well as the form and function of punk. Themes such as geography and environment are enfranchised into the discussion as ethnography and multidisciplinary approaches are applied to make a unique contribution to what is an essential and timely discussion regarding people, culture, heritage and place.

  • Die Smashing Pumpkins
    Die Smashing Pumpkins Billy Corgan: Billy Corgan, dessen voller Name William Patrick Corgan Jr. ist, wurde am 17. März 1967 geboren. D’arcy: Überall wo man ihren Namen liest, sieht man nur den Namen D’arcy, aus welchem Grund auch immer. Ihr ganzer Name allerdings ist D’arcy Elizabeth Wretzky, bzw. Wretzky- Brown nach dem sie heiratete. Sie wurde am 1. Mai 1968 in Michigan geboren. James Iha: James Yoshinobu Iha wurde am 26. März 1968 in Chicago, Illinois geboren. Jimmy Chamberlin: Jimmy wurde am 10. Juni 1964 in Joilet, Illinois geboren, und ist somit der Älteste der Band. Geschichte 1987, einige Zeit nachdem Billy Corgan aus Florida zurückkam, traf er James Iha. Sie fingen an, gemeinsam Musik zu machen und hatten auch einige Auftritte nur zu zweit mit einer Drum-Machine. Dies bot die Basis der Smashing Pumpkins. 1988 traf Billy D’arcy Wretzky außerhalb eines Nachtclubs. Sie redeten eine Weile, und er gab ihr darauf seine Nummer, und bot ihr an, als Bassistin für sie zu spielen. Am 10. August spielen sie ihren ersten Auftritt, allerdings noch nicht ganz vollständig, denn noch immer waren sie gezwungen, mit der Drum- Machine zu spielen. Nach einer Empfehlung eines Freundes, kontaktierte Corgan den Schlagzeuger Jimmy Chamberlin, der die Band bei ihrem ersten Auftritt sah, sie aber furchtbar fand. Trotzdem hielt er Billy Corgan aber für einen guten Schreiber mit Potential. Sie fingen nun an mit Jimmy zu spielen, und kurze Zeit später verkündete Billy in einem lokalen Radiosender, Chamberlin sei nun ein offizielles Mitglied der Pumpkins. Am 17. März 1989 spielte die Band erstmals in ihrer vollständigen Aufstellung im Caba- ret Metro, einem bekannten Club in Chicago.
