  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • JANE LEE HOOKER Twitter.Com/Janeleehooker Jane Lee Hooker Is a Band of five Women from New York City Who Take Traditional Blues on a Fast and Rough Ride
    917-843-5943 Alan Rand 2014 janeleehooker.com photo by facebook.com/JaneLeeHooker janeleehooker.bandcamp.com JANE LEE HOOKER twitter.com/JaneLeeHooker Jane Lee Hooker is a band of five women from New York City who take traditional blues on a fast and rough ride. Their self-released debut, “No B!,” was released in November. Notable stages they’ve graced include Pappy & Harriet’s [email protected] (Pioneertown, CA), Dogfish Head Brewery (Rehoboth Beach, DE), the Harrisburg Midtown Arts Center (Harrisburg, PA), Ojai Deer Lodge (Ojai, CA), and the Wonderbar (Asbury Park, NJ). Back home in NYC, they can be seen at the Knitting Factory, Mercury Lounge, Bitter End and Rock Shop, among other places. The band’s calling cards are songs by Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Johnny Winter, Big Mama Thornton, and other blues greats—all fed through double lead guitars, a heavy rhythm section, and soul-scouring vocals. These women are by no means new to the game. Between the five band members, they have decades of experience playing, recording and touring both nationally and internationally. Individually, the members of Jane Lee Hooker have played for thousands of fans while sharing bills with the likes of Motorhead, MC5, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Deep Purple, among others. And they’ve played more club gigs in more cities than even they can believe. So how’d this gang of pros finally find each other? Guitarists Hightop and Tina honed their mutual love of blazing dual leads during their time together in Helldorado in the 90s. From there, Hightop joined Nashville Pussy, Tina joined Bad Wizard, and both women toured the world.

    American Television, Reality Shows by Nathan G. Tipton Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Richard Hatch, winner of In 2000, when self-described "fat naked fag" Richard Hatch emerged as the first- the Survivor reality show season winning contestant on the phenomenally popular network reality television in 2000. show Survivor, he credited his survival success in large part to his homosexuality. Courtesy Richard Hatch. According to Hatch, growing up gay, being part of a minority community--and thus subject to scrutiny by others--inspired him to be both introspective and egocentric. These dual poles of introspection and egocentrism are, in fact, key elements in understanding the important roles gay men and lesbians play within the confines of reality television shows, even as they present interpretive quandaries for hetero- and homosexual viewers alike. In a typical reality television show, particularly one with game-show trappings such as CBS's Survivor and Big Brother, or ABC's The Mole, cast members as well as viewers regard introspection as suspicious behavior. Surely, the viewers surmise, something is being hatched under that quiet façade, and usually this supposition is proved correct. For these shows' gay and lesbian participants, however, the conflation of introspection with cunning and plotting too easily becomes connected to the unfortunate stereotype that gay men and lesbians are inherently crafty, conniving, and untrustworthy. Even in ostensibly less competitive shows such as Bravo's Boy Meets Boy, Fox's Playing It Straight, and even MTV's "docusoap"--Sam Brenton and Reuben Cohen's neologism for a television show that seamlessly combines elements of documentary realism with soap opera-style plotting--The Real World, introspection is often seen as a negative attribute, indicating moodiness, insecurity, or simmering hostility.

  • FILM / VIDEO REVIEWS Dead Boys Live DVD Review [MVD] by Oct 18, 2006, 15:17
    Dead Boys Live DVD review [MVD] Page 1 of 1 FILM / VIDEO REVIEWS Dead Boys Live DVD review [MVD] By Oct 18, 2006, 15:17 DEAD BOYS LIVE! AT CBGB 1977 directed by Rod Swenson; Music Video Distributors, 2004 DVD In the 1980’s, long before cult followings were manufactured overnight by a couple of internet bloggers, when the idea of a retail chain that only sold coffee was laughable, and before there was a hit Broadway show called Hairspray, there was a movie called Polyester. Director John Waters delivered something in Polyester, which seemed to speak directly into my teenage ear. Much to my mother’s disgust, that film regularly filled the screen of our living room TV. It was practically a religious experience for this high school outcast who played in a naive punk rock band. My favorite character by far was Bo-Bo Belsinger. At the time, I had no idea Bo-Bo was played by Stiv Bators and I would soon discover that Bators was the typecast front man for the Dead Boys… an ever-present band in my adolescent years. Fast forward 25 years as I pop this Dead Boys DVD into my new broadband enabled MacBook Pro with my HD television glowing in the background. Instantly time warped to 1977, I witness Cheetah Chrome attack his guitar with precision guided machine gun picking as the band kicks off the set with “Sonic Reducer.” Still fucking kills. Immediately apparent is that this CBGB signified something other than a t-shirt logo and Hilly Kristal’s epic landlord dispute.

  • From Crass to Thrash, to Squeakers: the Suspicious Turn to Metal in UK Punk and Hardcore Post ‘85
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by De Montfort University Open Research Archive From Crass to Thrash, to Squeakers: The Suspicious Turn to Metal in UK Punk and Hardcore Post ‘85. Otto Sompank I always loved the simplicity and visceral feel of all forms of punk. From the Pistols take on the New York Dolls rock, or the UK Subs aggressive punk take on rhythm and blues. The stark reality Crass and the anarchist-punk scene was informed with aspects of obscure seventies rock too, for example Pete Wright’s prog bass lines in places. Granted. Perhaps the most famous and intense link to rock and punk was Motorhead. While their early output and LP’s definitely had a clear nod to punk (Lemmy playing for the Damned), they appealed to most punks back then with their sheer aggression and intensity. It’s clear Motorhead and Black Sabbath influenced a lot of street-punk and the ferocious tones of Discharge and their Scandinavian counterparts such as Riistetyt, Kaaos and Anti Cimex. The early links were there but the influence of late 1970s early 80s NWOBM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) and street punk, Discharge etc. in turn influenced Metallica, Anthrax and Exodus in the early eighties. Most of them can occasionally be seen sporting Discharge, Broken Bones and GBH shirts on their early record-sleeve pictures. Not only that, Newcastle band Venom were equally influential in the mix of new genre forms germinating in the early 1980s. One of the early examples of the incorporation of rock and metal into the UK punk scene came from Discharge.
