  • 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.

  • 1 | Page the LIGHTNING THIEF Percy Jackson and the Olympians
    THE LIGHTNING THIEF Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Book 1 Rick Riordan 1 | Page 1 I ACCIDENTALLY VAPORIZE MY PRE-ALGEBRA TEACHER Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. If you're reading this because you think you might be one, my advice is: close this book right now. Believe what-ever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life. Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways. If you're a normal kid, reading this because you think it's fiction, great. Read on. I envy you for being able to believe that none of this ever happened. But if you recognize yourself in these pages-if you feel something stirring inside-stop reading immediately. You might be one of us. And once you know that, it's only a mat-ter of time before they sense it too, and they'll come for you. Don't say I didn't warn you. My name is Percy Jackson. I'm twelve years old. Until a few months ago, I was a boarding student at Yancy Academy, a private school for troubled kids in upstate New York. 2 | Page Am I a troubled kid? Yeah. You could say that. I could start at any point in my short miserable life to prove it, but things really started going bad last May, when our sixth-grade class took a field trip to Manhattan- twenty-eight mental-case kids and two teachers on a yellow school bus, heading to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to look at ancient Greek and Roman stuff.

  • Monsters and Tragedy
    r " .~ Monsters and Tragedy An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Carrie A. Conley Thesis Advisor Peter Davis Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2002 .:..C Abstract This thesis is a collection of recorded songs written for the bands Blacklisted and Love on the Run. The purpose of this project was to explore the songwriting process, with the primary goal being to record these songs as well as perform them to a live audience. While I take credit for the songwriting, all the songs are really products of collaboration-the result of working in a group setting. The songs reflect my interests in modem society, particularly true crime, pop culture, and the absurd. With the help of MET, TCOM, and music students, I recorded seventeen songs, which were written over the course of two years. I participated in a music video made by TCOM student Aaron Smith for his honors thesis and recorded four different song collections with a total of three different Ball State students. Both Blacklisted and Love on the Run participated in the annual Springboard Festival held April 20, 2002 at faculty member Jim Coffin's farm, and Blacklisted participated in the Women in the Arts Festival in March 2002. During the 2001-2002 school year, Blacklisted and Love on the Run played shows in Fort Wayne, Valparaiso, Aurora, Muncie, Anderson, and Marion, Indiana. Blacklisted in Fort Wayne, Indiana Acknowledgments I would like to thank Peter Davis for plunging into this project with me and inspiring me to listen to Alex Chilton. Thanks also to Aaron Smith for recording Blacklisted (even if it was for his honors thesis), Artie Hill for devoting a month's worth of Thursdays to recording in Joy's garage, Maria Yates for making Love on the Run a tangible commodity, Joy Gerwe and Kyle Johnson for allowing Blacklisted to practice in their garage, Joy, Jill, Irene, and Lisa for showing up to practice and making band-time, fun-time.

  • Korn All Albums Download Korn – Discography (1994 – 2014) UPDATE
    korn all albums download Korn – Discography (1994 – 2014) UPDATE. Korn – Discography (1994 – 2014) EAC Rip | 19xCD + 4xDVD | FLAC Image & Tracks + Cue + Log | Full Scans included Total Size: 11.2 GB | 3% RAR Recovery STUDIO ALBUMS | LIVE ALBUMS | COMPILATION | EP Label: Various | Genre: Alternative Rock, Nu Metal. Korn’s cathartic alternative metal sound positioned the group among the most popular and provocative to emerge during the post-grunge era. Korn began their existence as the Bakersfield, California-based metal band LAPD, which included guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch, bassist Reginald “Fieldy Snuts” Arvizu, and drummer David Silveria. After issuing an LP in 1993, the members of LAPD crossed paths with Jonathan Davis, a mortuary science student moonlighting as the lead vocalist for the local group Sexart. They soon asked Davis to join the band, and upon his arrival the quintet rechristened itself Korn. After signing to Epic’s Immortal imprint, they issued their debut album in late 1994; thanks to a relentless tour schedule that included stints opening for Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, and 311, the record slowly but steadily rose in the charts, eventually going gold. Its 1996 follow- up, Life Is Peachy, was a more immediate smash, reaching the number three spot on the pop album charts. The following summer, they headlined Lollapalooza, but were forced to drop off the tour when Shaffer was diagnosed with viral meningitis. While recording their best-selling 1998 LP Follow the Leader, Korn made national headlines when a student in Zeeland, Michigan, was suspended for wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the group’s logo (the school’s principal later declared their music “indecent, vulgar, and obscene,” prompting the band to issue a cease-and-desist order).
