For Immediate Release Scott Stapp Announces Tour FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SCOTT STAPP ANNOUNCES TOUR DATES IN SUPPORT OF NEW ALBUM PROOF OF LIFE NEW YORK, NY (May 19, 2014) – Grammy-Award winning artist Scott Stapp will hit the road this summer in support of his second full length solo album Proof of Life . The deeply personal Proof of Life debuted at #37 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Charts late last year. Proof of Life was produced by Howard Benson and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge and is the follow up to his 2005’s certified platinum release, The Great Divide . "Really excited to get back on the road,” Stapp remarked. “Performing live and seeing my fans up close and person is really special to me. It's important for me to stay connected to my fans that have been on this journey with me. I’m so grateful for everyone that has stuck by me through the years. Every night is unique & different. It’s really humbling to watch the fans sing along to my new music and I promise to give the fans a show they will not forget." The album’s lead single, “Slow Suicide,” a song which Yahoo! Music calls, “…a gritty burner, which opens with whirling, dizzying guitar feedback that blends into the main surging riff. From there, the number see-saws between a muted-chugging verse and a euphoric chorus…” is currently #8 and climbing on the Christian Rock Chart. “Only One” reached #18 hit on the Christian Hot AC/CHR Chart as well. Proof of Life is Stapp’s first new material since the release of his 2012 uncensored memoir, Sinner’s Creed, which Stapp shared his life story for the first time—from his fundamentalist upbringing, the rise of Creed, his ongoing battle with addiction, the rediscovery of his faith and the launch of his solo career. The gripping memoir is “proof” positive for Stapp that a higher power is always present, despite the colossal messes we sometimes make of our lives. Proof of Life is an 11-track collection of songs that chronicles the extension of his journey. The new songs reflect the maturity and wisdom of an artist that has sold nearly 30 million albums with Creed, had three Grammy nominations and one win for Best Rock Song with “With Arms Wide Open,” and 11 #1 Singles with “My Own Prison,” “Torn,” “What's This Life For,” “One,” “Higher,” “What If,” “Are You Ready,” “With Arms Wide Open,” “My Sacrifice” “One Last Breath,” and “Overcome.” Creed put out five albums - My Own Prison (1997) 6x Platinum, Human Clay (1999) 11+ million (Diamond), Weathered (2001) 6x Platinum, Greatest Hits (2004) 2x Platinum and Full Circle (2009) Certified Gold.

  • Music, Corporate Power, and Unending War
    03Scherzinger.qxd 5/20/2005 1:43 PM Page 23 MUSIC, CORPORATE POWER, AND UNENDING WAR Martin Scherzinger The triumph of advertising in the culture industry is that consumers feel compelled to buy and use its products even though they see through it. —Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno INTRODUCTION: IN QUEST OF A NEWER MUSICOLOGY Sixty years after its original publication, Max Horkheimer and Theo- dor W. Adorno’s Dialektic der Aufklärung resonates uncannily with our times. The central motifs of their bleak and horrifying diagnosis of the culture industry ring as true today as ever. While contemporary critics mostly regard Horkheimer and Adorno’s analysis of audience demand and reception dynamics as antiquated, this essay argues for the continued relevance of their indictment of culture under the (oppressive) authority of monopoly capital. In particular, the essay traces an emergent Schulterschluss between commercial and political power, with a special interest in the involvement of the music indus- try and the media conglomerates. This is not to say that contem- porary America operates under identical rules and constraints as the America of the 1940s. It does not. Nor is it to argue that capitalist America essentially approximates fascism, as Horkheimer and Adorno sometimes imply. The opening arguments of “The Culture Industry: Enlightenment as Mass Deception,” for example, are predicated on this fundamental similarity: “Even the aesthetic activities of political opposites are one in their enthusiastic obedience to the rhythm of the iron system. The decorative industrial management of buildings and exhibition centers in authoritarian countries are much the same as anywhere else” (1997, 120).

That opera about this character is by William Schuman and is called The Mighty this character. A literary work about this character describes a ​ ​ ​ “pall-like silence [falling]” after Cooney died at first, and Barrows did the same.

  • Subjectivity in American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, the Body, the Grotesque, and the Child
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Glasgow Theses Service Subjectivity In American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, The Body, The Grotesque, and The Child. Sara Ann Thomas MA (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts University of Glasgow January 2009 © Sara Thomas 2009 Abstract This thesis examines the subject in Popular American Metal music and culture during the period 1994-2004, concentrating on key artists of the period: Korn, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Tura Satana and My Ruin. Starting from the premise that the subject is consistently portrayed as being at a time of crisis, the thesis draws on textual analysis as an under appreciated approach to popular music, supplemented by theories of stardom in order to examine subjectivity. The study is situated in the context of the growing area of the contemporary gothic, and produces a model of subjectivity specific to this period: the contemporary gothic subject. This model is then used throughout to explore recurrent themes and richly symbolic elements of the music and culture: the body, pain and violence, the grotesque and the monstrous, and the figure of the child, representing a usage of the contemporary gothic that has not previously been attempted. Attention is also paid throughout to the specific late capitalist American cultural context in which the work of these artists is situated, and gives attention to the contradictions inherent in a musical form which is couched in commodity culture but which is highly invested in notions of the ‘Alternative’. In the first chapter I propose the model of the contemporary gothic subject for application to the work of Popular Metal artists of the period, drawing on established theories of the contemporary gothic and Michel Foucault’s theory of confession.

  • Thankfull Weekly Devotionals
    Week 1: October 25 – 31 Being ThankFULL means paying attention “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.” Colossians 4:2 Being thankful is an easy thing to do, but it takes some intentionality. We often get wrapped up in enjoying our blessings and we forget to say “thank you” to God. Other times, we get so consumed by our daily concerns and worldly troubles that we fail to recognize the blessings that are certainly present even in dark days. Colossians 4:2 says “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.” There is always something to be thankful for if we are watchful and paying attention. And so, the very first step to being ThankFull, is to pay attention to what is going on around you, and where God is present and at work. Resist getting swept away by the busyness of the world, but rather ground yourself in prayer. Pause. Breathe. Listen. God is present and working among the people and the moments that often go unnoticed. David was nearly overlooked to become king because he was the youngest among Jesse’s sons (1 Samuel 16). Elijah was looking for God in the strong wind and in the earthquake, but God was actually present in the still small voice (1 Kings 19). Thankfully, it was because Samuel took notice that David became king, and it was because Elijah took notice that he was able to feel God’s presence. What will we behold if we start paying attention? During this first week of ThankFULL, try to be more watchful and pay attention to the things that usually go unnoticed.

  • Microbial Interaction with Clay Minerals and Its Environmental and Biotechnological Implications
    minerals Review Microbial Interaction with Clay Minerals and Its Environmental and Biotechnological Implications Marina Fomina * and Iryna Skorochod Zabolotny Institute of Microbiology and Virology of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Zabolotny str., 154, 03143 Kyiv, Ukraine; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 13 August 2020; Accepted: 24 September 2020; Published: 29 September 2020 Abstract: Clay minerals are very common in nature and highly reactive minerals which are typical products of the weathering of the most abundant silicate minerals on the planet. Over recent decades there has been growing appreciation that the prime involvement of clay minerals in the geochemical cycling of elements and pedosphere genesis should take into account the biogeochemical activity of microorganisms. Microbial intimate interaction with clay minerals, that has taken place on Earth’s surface in a geological time-scale, represents a complex co-evolving system which is challenging to comprehend because of fragmented information and requires coordinated efforts from both clay scientists and microbiologists. This review covers some important aspects of the interactions of clay minerals with microorganisms at the different levels of complexity, starting from organic molecules, individual and aggregated microbial cells, fungal and bacterial symbioses with photosynthetic organisms, pedosphere, up to environmental and biotechnological implications. The review attempts to systematize our current general understanding of the processes of biogeochemical transformation of clay minerals by microorganisms. This paper also highlights some microbiological and biotechnological perspectives of the practical application of clay minerals–microbes interactions not only in microbial bioremediation and biodegradation of pollutants but also in areas related to agronomy and human and animal health.
