Blues to Metal What Is Blues? Blues to metal What is blues? Initially called American work songs, they were written and composed by the African-American people in the deep south of the U.S during the late 19th century. Usually written using the Pentatonic scale or the Dorian Mode over a 4/4 time signature. What is metal?

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • 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.

  • Hipster Black Metal?
    Hipster Black Metal? Deafheaven’s Sunbather and the Evolution of an (Un) popular Genre Paola Ferrero A couple of months ago a guy walks into a bar in Brooklyn and strikes up a conversation with the bartenders about heavy metal. The guy happens to mention that Deafheaven, an up-and-coming American black metal (BM) band, is going to perform at Saint Vitus, the local metal concert venue, in a couple of weeks. The bartenders immediately become confrontational, denying Deafheaven the BM ‘label of authenticity’: the band, according to them, plays ‘hipster metal’ and their singer, George Clarke, clearly sports a hipster hairstyle. Good thing they probably did not know who they were talking to: the ‘guy’ in our story is, in fact, Jonah Bayer, a contributor to Noisey, the music magazine of Vice, considered to be one of the bastions of hipster online culture. The product of that conversation, a piece entitled ‘Why are black metal fans such elitist assholes?’ was almost certainly intended as a humorous nod to the ongoing debate, generated mainly by music webzines and their readers, over Deafheaven’s inclusion in the BM canon. The article features a promo picture of the band, two young, clean- shaven guys, wearing indistinct clothing, with short haircuts and mild, neutral facial expressions, their faces made to look like they were ironically wearing black and white make up, the typical ‘corpse-paint’ of traditional, early BM. It certainly did not help that Bayer also included a picture of Inquisition, a historical BM band from Colombia formed in the early 1990s, and ridiculed their corpse-paint and black cloaks attire with the following caption: ‘Here’s what you’re defending, black metal purists.

  • Extreme Metal: Subculture, Genre, and Structure
    Université de Montréal Extreme metal: Subculture, Genre, and Structure par Samaël Pelletier Université de Montréal Faculté de Musique Mémoire présenté en vue de l’obtention du grade de Maîtrise en musique option musicologie avril 2018 © Samaël Pelletier. 2018 Abstract Extreme metal is a conglomeration of numerous subgenres with shared musical and discursive tendencies. For the sake of concision, the focus throughout this thesis will mainly be on death metal and black metal – two of the most popular subgenres categorized under the umbrella of extreme metal. Each chapter is a comparative analysis of death metal and black metal from different perspectives. Thus, Chapter One is historical account of extreme metal but also includes discussions pertaining to iconography and pitch syntax. Subsequently, Chapter Two concerns itself with the conception of timbre in death metal and black metal. More specifically, timbre will be discussed in the context of sound production as well as timbre derived from performance, in particular, vocal distortion. The conception of rhythm/meter will be discussed in Chapter Three which will simultaneously allow for a discussion of the fluidity of genre boundaries between death metal and progressive metal – largely because of the importance placed on rhythm by the latter subgenre. Instead of a focus on musical practices, Chapter Four will instead take a sociological approach with the aim of answering certain issues raised in the first three chapters. Ultimately, this thesis aims to elucidate two questions: What are the different aesthetic intentions between practitioners of death metal and black metal? And, how do fans conceptualize these aesthetic differences? Sarah Thornton’s notion of subcultural capital – which is derived from Pierre Bourdieu’s notion of cultural capital – will help to answer such questions.

This authenticity can be expressed through production values, musical techniques adopted, and style of dress and presentation among members of the scene. In this context, members of the scene are presented with a dilemma given the demand to both showcase individuality in their taste and style while also conforming to what it means to be “true” or authentic within the scene.

Page 23.1317.1 Page c American Society for Engineering Education, 2013 Using Heavy Metal Music to Promote Technological and Socio-cultural Understanding Abstract Heavy metal is one of the most misinterpreted musical genres in existence, while also arguably one of the most intelligent, insightful and technologically-rich genres. Heavy metal‟s history has facilitated multiple engineering developments in its quest for extremity as well as containing a wealth of commentary about global, social, religious and political cultures. A course has been created to help students explore these engineering developments and social commentary in order to promote understanding of the interplay between the technologies and cultural phenomena. This presentation will provide a synopsis of the course and its success over its developmental period. The course utilizes heavy metal‟s influences and history to examine where culture and music collide. It then goes further to study the music‟s relationship with progress in engineering and design.

Bermain-main dalam Transgresi: Fantasi dalam Dark play Empat Vokalis Ekstrem Metal Perempuan di Indonesia. Yogyakarta: Magister Kajian Budaya. Universitas Sanata Dharma. Skena musik ekstrem metal selama ini dipandang sebagai sebuah skena yang didominasi laki-laki dan dibangun berdasarkan imaji-imaji maskulinitas sehingga perempuan yang ingin ikut ambil bagian di dalamnya harus menyesuaikan dengan aturan-aturan dan kode- kode maskulin. Tindakan misoginis dan penyingkiran sifat-sifat feminin terlihat dari praktik-praktik yang terjadi di skena ekstrem metal yang membuat perempuan terpinggirkan. Hal ini memungkinkan kekuatan dan kontrol laki-laki direproduksi terus menerus lewat praktik transgresi yang menjadi ciri khas ekstrem metal. Meski begitu, banyak perempuan yang tetap terjun dan terlibat di skena ekstrem metal sebagai vokalis yang aktif dan berkarya dalam band ekstrem metal. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif, studi ini mengeksplorasi daya performance empat vokalis ekstrem metal perempuan di Indonesia yang terdiri dari Fransisca Ayu dari band metalcore

  • Malay Metalheads: Situating Metal Music Culture in Brunei
    Situations 10.2 (2017): 7–26 ISSN: 2288–7822 Malay Metalheads: Situating Metal Music Culture in Brunei Amalina Timbang (University of Edinburgh) Zawawi Ibrahim (Universiti Brunei Darussalam) Abstract As a global phenomenon metal music has created a worldwide community that constructs its own unique subculture. In Brunei, popular culture takes its own particularistic form of articulation due to the existence of contestations for hegemony between the youth and the Malay Islamic state. The dominant state ideology of Melayu Islam Beraja (MIB) or Malay Islamic Monarchy plays a pivotal role in influencing and reshaping the local sense of a metal community. In the Brunei context, an important feature of the Malay metalhead community is the fact that it does not duplicate the metal cultural blueprint of its western origins. Contrary to international metal communities, there is an inadequacy of public space to perform the role of a metalhead (i.e. live performances), and it is difficult to undertake music-related activities in Brunei. As the public domain is constantly regulated by MIB, the Malay metalhead community is totally grounded in the realm of the private sphere. This article explores three important issues: first, the creation of the Malay metalhead culture; second, the convergence of the MIB identity and the metalhead identity; and third, the hybridization of global and local metal cultures. Keywords: metal music, Bruneian popular music, Melayu Islam Beraja (MIB), Malay metalheads, music subculture, metal community, glocalization, hybridization, popular culture 8 Amalina Timbang and Zawawi Ibrahim Introduction: The General Background of Popular Music in Brunei Popular culture and music have always exerted a powerful allure among young people in Brunei Darussalam, and there are various hybridized subcultures within the small Malay Islamic nation.
