  • Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal *
    Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal * Stephen S. Hudson NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hps://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.21.27.1/mto.21.27.1.hudson.php KEYWORDS: Heavy Metal, Formenlehre, Form Perception, Embodied Cognition, Corpus Study, Musical Meaning, Genre ABSTRACT: This article presents a new framework for analyzing compound AABA form in heavy metal music, inspired by normative theories of form in the Formenlehre tradition. A corpus study shows that a particular riff-based version of compound AABA, with a specific style of buildup intro (Aas 2015) and other characteristic features, is normative in mainstream styles of the metal genre. Within this norm, individual artists have their own strategies (Meyer 1989) for manifesting compound AABA form. These strategies afford stylistic distinctions between bands, so that differences in form can be said to signify aesthetic posing or social positioning—a different kind of signification than the programmatic or semantic communication that has been the focus of most existing music theory research in areas like topic theory or musical semiotics. This article concludes with an exploration of how these different formal strategies embody different qualities of physical movement or feelings of motion, arguing that in making stylistic distinctions and identifying with a particular subgenre or style, we imagine that these distinct ways of moving correlate with (sub)genre rhetoric and the physical stances of imagined communities of fans (Anderson 1983, Hill 2016).

  • Heavy Metal Generations
    Thumb-Bangers: Exploring the Cultural Bond between Video Games and Heavy Metal Louis-Martin Guay and Dominic Arsenault Abstract Heavy metal and video games share an almost simultaneous birth, with Black Sabbath’s debut album in 1970 and Nolan Bushnell’s Computer Space in 1971. From Judas Priest’s ‘Freewheel Burning’ music video in 1984 to Tim Schafer’s Brütal Legend in 2009, the exchanges between these two subcultures have been both reciprocal and exponential. This chapter will present a historical survey of the bond between video games and heavy metal cultures through its highest-profile examples. There are two underlying reasons for this symbiosis: 1) the historical development and popular dissemination of the video game came at an opportune time, first with the video game arcades in the 1970s and early 1980s, and then with the Nintendo Entertainment System, whose technical sound-channel limitations happened to fall in line with the typical structures of heavy metal; 2) heavy metal and video games, along with their creators and consumers, have faced similar sociocultural paths and challenges, notably through the policies set in place by the PMRC and the ESRB, and a flurry of lawsuits and attacks, especially from United States congressmen, that resulted in an overlapping of their respective spaces outside dominant culture. These reasons explain the natural bond between these cultural practices, and the more recent developments like Last Chance to Reason’s Level 2 let us foresee a future where new hybrid creations could emerge. Key Words: Video games, heavy metal, history, violence, subcultures, chiptunes. ***** 1. Of Pinballs and Wizards: The Early Exchanges Heavy metal and video games share an almost simultaneous birth, with Black Sabbath’s debut album in 1970 and Nolan Bushnell’s Computer Space in 1971.

  • Bridges to Free-Standing Bridges – Or – the Mutable Modular Model of Metal Music Michael Dekovich University of Oregon
    Bridges to Free-Standing Bridges – or – The Mutable Modular Model of Metal Music Michael Dekovich University of Oregon Heavy metal’s defiance of social and musical norms has been a source of fascination since the genre’s earliest days. But although scholars have been attentive to metal’s unique musical expressions, little literature has been devoted to the analysis of musical form. This paper codifies common strategies in metal song forms and theorizes how metal’s transgressive tendencies manifest in formal functions. Transgression implies a dialectical relationship, the negation of a normative standard. Metal composers frequently use rotational forms found throughout Western popular music but are also prone to modifying and avoiding common song forms, a behavior that can be read through dialogic form, “reconstructing a processual dialogue between any individual work (or section thereof) and the charged network of generic norms, guidelines, possibilities, expectations, and limits provided by the implied genre at hand” (Hepokoski 2010, 71). At the same time, metal’s transgression has deeper implications for teleology. Abjection (Kristeva 1982; Dee 2009) provides a means for metal to construct dialectical identities by deferring or denying telos in favor of liminality, the state of being in- between. Whereas pop and rock usually treat the chorus as a song’s most significant formal goal, metal composers’ expansion of bridge sections and the distortion or omission of rotational units pushes form outside of normative confines, producing sections and song forms that complicate narratives of formal progression. Many pop, rock and metal songs follow the template of compound AABA form, wherein each A section contains a cycle beginning with a verse and ending with a chorus, and where the B section is analogous to the bridge or “middle eight” from Tin Pan Alley AABA pop songs, earning it the designation of “bridge section” (Covach 2005, 74; Nobile 2020, 105).

  • Metal for the Masses”: Or, Will Metal Ever Be Mainstream Again? (And Why We Should Want It to Be...)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ResearchSPace - Bath Spa University MODERN HEAVY METAL: MARKETS, PRACTICES AND CULTURES International Academic Conference 2015 “METAL FOR THE MASSES”: OR, WILL METAL EVER BE MAINSTREAM AGAIN? (AND WHY WE SHOULD WANT IT TO BE...) Andy R. Brown Bath Spa University, UK Abstract Exploring the model of scene-based innovation and scarcity that characterised the 90s extreme metal underground, as eloquently outlined by Keith Kahn- Harris, this paper seeks to evaluate the extent to which its model of “eclipsed” symbolic capital accumulation is the key not to its success but relative failure to achieve innovation, development and change in metal music. Debating Lena and Peterson’s AgSIT model of genre trajectories, this paper argues such change in metal music have always been tied to the formation and demise of music “mainstreams.” The problem from this perspective is that NWOBHM, doom, power (including symphonic), thrash, grindcore, death and black metal did not mainstream enough (with the exception of some notable bands) to allow the next cycle of musical innovation to commence. Introduction In a striking series of recent posts, published on-line in the net.magazine Sou- ciant (2013; 2014), Keith Kahn-Harris has reflected on the question of Metal After Metal. Recalling the searching intelligence of a younger Lawrence Gross- berg (1990) and his anxious ruminations on whether rock was dead, dying or “going somewhere else” – published over twenty years ago – Kahn-Harris ec- hoes a similar set of fears, not about the break-up of the music-audience rela- tions that sustained the Anglo-American “rock formation” but the scenic- relations that sustained the creative-economy of the extreme metal under- ground.

  • About Soulsplitter
    ABOUT SOULSPLITTER SOULSPLITTER is a Germany-based music and arts collective founded by the musicians Fenix Gayed (drums), Simon Kramer (guitars), Daniel Gräupner (keys) and Felix Jacobs (bass). The band started writing on their debut record SALUTOGENESIS in 2015, eager to melt their musical backgrounds and influences into a new and epic sound. Inspired by 1970s Progressive Rock as well as modern Metal sounds, Jazz harmonies and intricate classical compositions of Late Romanticism, their sound evokes reminiscences of STEVEN WILSON and DREAM THEATER as well as PINK FLOYD or EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER. SALUTOGENESIS consists of eight songs which explore a coherent story, telling a tale of love and death, of meaning and awareness. For the album production, SOULSPLITTER acquired the support of over 50 individuals – vocalists, instrumentalists, producers and designers – to create a truly unique and timeless masterpiece that reaches beyond the possibilities of a mere band record. During the show you can be excited for a 60-minute trip into the world of SALUTOGENESIS: take part in a journey through the depths of doubt and pain into ultimately realising one's purpose! SOULSPLITTER's stage performance aims to merge the realms of fantasy and reality in an effort to support everyone's own SALUTOGENESIS – their very own path to health and success in life. https://soulsplitter.com https://www.facebook.com/soulsplitter.prog/ https://soulsplitter.bandcamp.com „I can’t help but award this ambitious work of art with the highest rating. One can only guess what these talented artists have in store for us in the years to come.
