  • Pressemitteilung Zu Obituary
    Pressemitteilung zu Obituary Die amerikanischen Death Metaller Obituary präsentieren ihr neues Album „Obituary“ (Relapse) am 25.03.18 im Logo live Hamburg, November 2017 – Im Sommer 2017 gab es nur zwei Shows in Deutschland, jetzt kommen Obituary für eine komplette Tour wieder nach Deutschland. Die Death Metal-Protagonisten aus Florida haben weitere sieben Shows im März 2018 gebucht, um ihr am 16.03.17 erschienenes zehntes Top 30-Album „Obituary“ (Relapse) live vorzustellen. Das Quintett um Frontmann John Tardy tritt in Hamburg am 25.03.18 im Logo auf. Obituary aus Tampa/Florida haben mit Alben wie „Slowly We Rot“ (1989) oder „Cause Of Death“ (1990) Genre-definierende Klassiker geschaffen und zählen zu den einflussreichsten Death Metal-Bands überhaupt, ihr eigenständiger Sound ist geprägt von simplen und einprägsamen Gitarrenriffs sowie vom Gesang von John Tardy. Nach nur zwei Shows im August 2017 (Summer Breeze Festival und Dortmund) kommen die legendären Death Metaller zurück nach Deutschland, um ihr im März 2017 erschienenes zehntes Album „Obituary“ (Relapse Records) zu promoten. 1984 gründen die Brüder John (v) und Donald Tardy (dr) Xecutioner, die sich kurz vor dem Erscheinen des Debüts „Slowly We Rot“ im Jahr 1989 in Obituary umbenennen. Zusammen mit ihrem Produzenten Scott Burns erschaffen sie damit im inzwischen legendären Morrisound Studio einen Meilenstein des Death Metal, an dem sich alle Nachfolger orientieren. Obituarys Erfolg trägt maßgeblich zur Etablierung des Nischen-Genres Death Metal bei. Dabei sind sie im Laufe der Jahre mit ihrem eigenen Sound, den stetigen Tempiwechsel und dem unvergleichbaren Gesangsstil von John Tardy eine unverwechselbare Größe geworden. Mit den einigen der folgenden Alben wie zum Beispiel Pressekontakt: Erik Sabas +49 40 4133018-40 [email protected] river_concerts www.riverconcerts.de River Concerts „The End Complete” (1992), „World Demise” (1994) und „Frozen in Time” (2005) zementieren sie ihren Ruf als eine der eigenständigsten und wichtigsten Bands ihres Genres.

By that I mean that both are Metal Mind DVDs, a lab that has gotten rather proficient at the live concert DVD game. Th centerpiece is the show itself, which is professionally filmed and recorde while the bonus material includes generally informative interviews wi the members and a video or two. With that little synopsis out of the wa we can dive right into the meat of the matter. Filmed at the Stodola Club in Warsaw, Poland on August 24, 200 http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/showdvdreview.aspx?reviewID=29 4/2/2007 BLABBERMOUTH.NET Page 2 of 3 OBITUARY's performance is nothing short of classic. Though soun quality never seems to be a problem on a Metal Mind release, th quality on "Frozen Alive" is especially good and better than th somewhat cavernous sound on GRAVE's "Enraptured". Playing whopping 23-song set, the quintet is on top of its game and clearly lovin every minute of it, which always makes the experience more enjoyab for the viewer. As tight as the rest of the members are though, it vocalist John Tardy that is a veritable monster! The guy is on! Stalkin the stage with a constant snarl on his face and that flowing mane of ha Tardy sounds great and delivers the goods song after song.

  • Metal Music As Critical Dystopia: Humans, Technology and the Future in 1990S Science Fiction Metal
    Metal Music as Critical Dystopia: Humans, Technology and the Future in 1990s Science Fiction Metal Laura Taylor Department of Communications, Popular Culture and Film Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture Faculty of Social Sciences and Faculty of Humanities, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © October, 2006 Abstract Metal Music as Critical Dystopia: Humans, Technology and the Future in 1990s Science Fiction Metal seeks to demonstrate that the dystopian elements in metal music are not merely or necessarily a sonic celebration of disaster. Rather, metal music's fascination with dystopian imagery is often critical in intent, borrowing themes and imagery from other literary and cinematic traditions in an effort to express a form of social commentary. The artists and musical works examined in this thesis maintain strong ties with the science fiction genre, in particular, and tum to science fiction conventions in order to examine the long-term implications of humanity's complex relationship with advanced technology. Situating metal's engagements with science fiction in relation to a broader practice of blending science fiction and popular music and to the technophobic tradition in writing and film, this thesis analyzes the works of two science fiction metal bands, VOlvod and Fear Factory, and provides close readings of four futuristic albums from the mid to late 1990s that address humanity's relationship with advanced technology in musical and visual imagery as well as lyrics. These recorded texts, described here as cyber metal for their preoccupation with technology in subject matter and in sound, represent prime examples of the critical dystopia in metal music.

  • L'analyse Des Paramètres Narrato-Musicologiques Dans L'élaboration Du Récit Phonographique Transgressif
    L’analyse des paramètres narrato-musicologiques dans l’élaboration du récit phonographique transgressif : Le cas du metal extrême Mémoire Méi-Ra St-Laurent Maîtrise en musique - musicologie Maître en musique (M. Mus.) Québec, Canada © Méi-Ra St-Laurent, 2013 Résumé Le metal extrême, tiré du heavy metal, demeure souvent pointé du doigt en raison de la musique et des sujets transgressifs le caractérisant et qui, a priori, ne communiquent qu‟une violence décousue. Or, ces dernières années, plusieurs musicologues se sont intéressés au potentiel de la narratologie pour l‟analyse de la musique populaire; la chanson est alors considérée comme un véritable récit, où les musiciens transmettent leur propre vision du monde. Dans ce mémoire, je propose donc une analyse musicologique et narratologique de quatre chansons dites transgressives tirées du metal extrême, soit « Mad Architect » (Septicflesh), « Her Ghost in the Fog » (Cradle of Filth), « When the Joyful Dead are Dancing » (Unexpect) et « Puritania » (Dimmu Borgir). Ces analyses permettront donc de mieux comprendre la structure narrative et musicale interne, ainsi que les différents codes esthétiques régissant ce répertoire. iii Summary Extreme metal, derived from heavy metal, remains often singled out because of the music and subjects viewed as transgressive and which, a priori, communicate a disjointed violence. However, in recent years, several musicologists have been interested in the potiential of narratology for the analysis of popular music; the song is then considered as a true narrative, where musicians communicate their own conception of the world. In this thesis, I propose to perform a musicological and narratological analysis of four songs known as transgressive and derived from extreme metal, namely “Mad Architect” (Septicflesh), “Her Ghost in the Fog” (Cradle of Filth) “When the Joyful Dead are Dancing” (Unexpect) and “Puritania” (Dimmu Borgir).
