O Porquê Da Existência De Festivais Punk Na Europa
Paulo Bettencourt Lemos A INDUSTRIALIZAÇÃO DO MOVIMENTO PUNK Relatório de estágio em Comunicação e Jornalismo, orientado pelo Doutor Carlos Camponez, apresentado ao Departamento de Informação, Comunicação e Filosofia da Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra Julho de 2014 1 Faculdade de Letras A INDUSTRIALIZAÇÃO DO MOVIMENTO PUNK Ficha Técnica: Tipo de trabalho Relatório de estágio Título A INDUSTRIALIZAÇÃO DO MOVIMENTO PUNK Autor Paulo Bettencourt Lemos Orientador Doutor Carlos Camponez Júri Presidente: Vogais: 1. 2. Identificação do Curso 2º Ciclo em Comunicação e Jornalismo Data da defesa Classificação 2 Resumo Embora o Punk tenha surgido em finais da década de 70 como uma contra-cultura revolucionária que se opôs aos valores sociais vigentes da sociedade inglesa, rapidamente a indústria absorveu este movimento social. A atual aceitação social da prévia rebeldia Punk deu-se através da sua comercialização, onde foi possível ao mainstream suavizar os seus aspetos mais agressivos popularizando assim agrupamentos musicais do género. A vulgarização do Punk ocorreu deste modo através da incorporação comercial da sua música e estética. Neste relatório de estágio reflete-se sobre o papel e a influência da indústria no Punk. Através de uma análise ao festival Mighty Sounds, compreenderemos como a comercialização desta tribo urbana tornou este fenómeno facilmente reconhecido a nível mundial e qual o impacto da indústria nos movimentos do underground, desconhecidos pelo grande público, e que se encontram fora dos mediatismos comerciais e noticiosos. Palavras-chave: Mighty Sounds, Punk, Música, Festivais de Verão, República Checa, Praga 3 Abstract Although Punk has emerged in the late 70s as a revolutionary counter-culture that opposed the prevailing social values of English society, the industry quickly absorbed this social movement.

Roots Radical – Place, Power and Practice in Punk Entrepreneurship Sarah Louise Drakopoulou Dodd
Roots radical – Place, power and practice in punk entrepreneurship Sarah Louise Drakopoulou Dodd The significance continues to grow of scholarship that embraces critical and contextualized entrepreneurship, seeking rich explorations of diverse entrepreneurship contexts. Following these influences, this study explores the potentialized context of punk entrepreneurship. The Punk Rock band Rancid has a 20-year history of successfully creating independent musical and related creative enterprises from the margins of the music industry. The study draws on artefacts, interviews and videos created by and around Rancid to identify and analyse this example of marginal, alternative entrepreneurship. A three-part analytic frame was applied to analysing these artefacts. Place is critical to Rancid’s enterprise, grounding the band socially, culturally, geographically and politically. Practice also plays an important role with Rancid’s activities encompassing labour, making music, movement and human interactions. The third, and most prevalent, dimension of alterity is that of power which includes data related to dominance, subordination, exclusion, control and liberation. Rancid’s entrepreneurial story is depicted as cycles, not just a linear journey, but following more complicated paths – from periphery to centre, and back again; returning to roots, whilst trying to move forwards too; grounded in tradition but also radically focused on dramatic change. Paradox, hybridized practices, and the significance of marginal place as a rich resource also emerged from the study. Keywords: entrepreneurship; social construction; punk rock; paradox; marginality; periphery Special thanks are due to all the punks and skins who have engaged with my reading of the Rancid story, and given me so much support and feedback along the way, especially Rancid’s drummer, Branden Steineckert, Jesse from Machete Manufacturing, Kostis, Tassos (Rancid Punx Athens Crew) and Panayiotis.

CHECK US ONLINE HERE: Times Are Changing and the Smiles Are Rare Nowdays
CHECK US ONLINE HERE: Times are changing and the smiles are rare nowdays. Oi you! Everybody seems to forget about their passions from different reasons. We all work, we all have different visions now and different jobs, but the passion should be the same. Is hard to stay in touch now with some bands, is even harder to check the internet for new albums and new bands, but when i have some free time i come back to my first love: this music. 11 years and i am still playing with this fanzine, and i am doing it for me in the first place and for those 5 people close to me, but always with a smile on my face when i am doing it. People have changed along time, i did change as well, but i will never forget the memories, i will ALBUM OF THE MOMENT never forget my city, the long roads to concerts and the old gang. We all grew up and forget the feeling inside. That feeling is love. Is love for this music and for the people, is love for the simple things...always. With passion in my heart still going stronger, still here with a big smile and a lot of love for this music. Until next time, always stay yourself and don’t forget your roots!, don’t forget the struggle and don’t forget the streets! CTHC-one love!

Atom and His Package Possibly the Smallest Band on the List, Atom & His
Atom and His Package Possibly the smallest band on the list, Atom & his Package consists of Adam Goren (Atom) and his package (a Yamaha music sequencer) make funny punk songs utilising many of of the package's hundreds of instruments about the metric system, the lead singer of Judas Priest and what Jewish people do on Christmas. Now moved on to other projects, Atom will remain the person who told the world Anarchy Means That I Litter, The Palestinians Are Not the Same Thing as the Rebel Alliance Jackass, and If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're a ****. Ghost Mice With only two members in this folk/punk band their voices and their music can be heard along with such pride. This band is one of the greatest to come out of the scene because of their abrasive acoustic style. The band consists of a male guitarist (I don't know his name) and Hannah who plays the violin. They are successful and very well should be because it's hard to 99 when you have such little to work with. This band is off Plan It X records and they put on a fantastic show. Not only is the band one of the leaders of the new genre called folk/punk but I'm sure there is going to be very big things to come from them and it will always be from the heart. Defiance, Ohio Defiance, Ohio are perhaps one of the most compassionate and energetic leaders of the "folk/punk" movement. Their clever lyrics accompanied by fast, melodic, acoustic guitars make them very enjoyable to listen to.
