Minor Victories PRESSEMITTEILUNG VOM 22.06.2016 Minor Victories Minor Victories, die neu formierte Band bestehend aus Rachel Goswell (Slowdive), Stuart Braithwaite (Mogwai), Editors Gitarrist Justin Lockey und seinem Bruder James Lockey, haben mit dem bildgewaltigen Video zur Vorabsingle “A Hundred Ropes” schon für Aufsehen gesorgt. Jetzt legen sie mit ihrer Leadsingle “Scattered Ashes (Song For Richard)” nach, die James Graham von The Twilight Sad featured. Was ursprünglich nur von Justin als Idee gedacht war - nämlich die Aufnahme einer extremen Noise EP - endete schlussendlich in einem 10-Song starken Longplayer von vier Bandmitgliedern, die zuvor noch nie zusammen im selben Raum waren. Es war ein glücklicher Zufall, ein Wink des Schicksals, der die vier Musiker zusammenbringen sollte. Nur Rachel Goswell und Justin Lockey kannten sich flüchtig. Als Justin an die Songs der zukünftigen EP dachte, wollte er unbedingt eine zarte Frauenstimme dabei haben, die dem ganzen Rock Leben einhaucht. Rachel war mit im Boot und brachte Stuart als weiteren Gitarristen mit ins Spiel. Als Justin seinem Bruder James das erste Rohmaterial zeigte, fügte dieser noch eigene Ideen dazu. Die Band war somit komplett! Minor Victories bilden auf ihrem Album ein breites Spektrum an Musikrichtungen. Gerade weil sich durch diese fruchtbare Zusammenarbeit für alle Bandmitglieder neue musikalische Perspektiven ergeben haben, wissen Minor Victories auf ihrem Album definitiv zu überraschen! “Starting a band where some of the people have never met each other is something I’ve never heard of,” sagt Stuart. James fügt hinzu, “I’ve made a record with people I’d never have imagined I would have the chance to work with,” während Rachel es wie folgt beschreibt “the most exciting thing I’ve done to date.” Am 03. Juni 2016 erschien das selbstbetitelte Debütalbum von Minor Victories. Nach einer UK-Tour darf sich nun auch das deutsche Publikum auf die Bühnenpremiere hierzulande freuen! Visions präsentiert: Minor Victories 30.10.16 Düsseldorf, Zakk 31.10.16 Berlin, SO36 01.11.16 Dresden, Beatpol 02.11.16 München, Technikum 06.11.16 Hamburg, Markthalle Tickets für die Tour sind erhältlich im Internet über www.schoneberg.de als auch bei ausgesuchten CTS-/Eventim VVK-Stellen.

  • 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.

  • Unpopular Culture and Explore Its Critical Possibilities and Ramifications from a Large Variety of Perspectives
    15 mm front 153 mm 8 mm 19,9 mm 8 mm front 153 mm 15 mm 15 mm TELEVISUAL CULTURE TELEVISUAL CULTURE This collection includes eighteen essays that introduce the concept of Lüthe and Pöhlmann (eds) unpopular culture and explore its critical possibilities and ramifications from a large variety of perspectives. Proposing a third term that operates beyond the dichotomy of high culture and mass culture and yet offers a fresh approach to both, these essays address a multitude of different topics that can all be classified as unpopular culture. From David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to Zane Grey, from Christian rock and country to clack cetal, from Steven Seagal to Genesis (Breyer) P-Orridge, from K-pop to The Real Housewives, from natural disasters to 9/11, from thesis hatements to professional sports, these essays find the unpopular across media and genres, and they analyze the politics and the aesthetics of an unpopular culture (and the unpopular in culture) that has not been duly recognized as such by the theories and methods of cultural studies. Martin Lüthe is an associate professor in North American Cultural Studies at the John F. Kennedy-Institute at Freie Universität Berlin. Unpopular Culture Sascha Pöhlmann is an associate professor in American Literary History at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich. 240 mm Martin Lüthe and Sascha Pöhlmann (eds) Unpopular Culture ISBN: 978-90-8964-966-9 AUP.nl 9 789089 649669 15 mm Unpopular Culture Televisual Culture The ‘televisual’ names a media culture generally in which television’s multiple dimensions have shaped and continue to alter the coordinates through which we understand, theorize, intervene, and challenge contemporary media culture.
