  • Music Is Live and Outside …
    Enter the Flange Factory: Math the Band releases a multi-concept project Troubled times call for audacious measures. Math the Band is back, this time with a whirlwind of multimedia the likes of which has never been attempted. Their latest project, Flange Factory Five, is an immersive experience that includes a novel, record, game boy cartridge, energy drink and boutique guitar pedal. MTB, sometimes billed as “Math The Band The Band,” is the project of frontman Kevin Steinhauser and a rotating cast of characters, which currently features guitarist Max Holbrook, bassist Adam Waz and drummer Matt Zappa. The band has been operational for 20 years, and based in Providence for 12. A characteristically joyous effort, the Flange Factory Five features the band’s signature combination of glitchy, 8-bit keyboards over distorted guitars. A project like this requires the boundless energy they put forward in their ecstatic live shows, and it totally comes through on the recording. The uptempo “Dual of the Deer” features guitars and synth lines in roaring triumphiant harmony. “DKWIC” has a great Brian May-style guitar solo, and “Coach Says” is a hard-edged tune at the circle pit end of the spectrum. Stenhouser, who started the project in high school, puts every ounce of himself into the vocals. Along with great playing throughout, this album brings us the best of grit and nerddom, like a skater punk version of the music from Crash Bandicoot. But the video game sounds can belie the smart composition and clever lyrics. “Wet Cement” is ultra-catchy montage fodder about starting a new chapter: “The fear is exciting and I can’t wait to be born.” An additional treat is a suite of “Flange Factory Five” instrumental interludes that could be the jingle for the cartoon television show of the same name.

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.

  • The Miles Ahead
    The Miles Ahead An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) By Krista Sanford Thesis Advisor Angela Jackson-Brown Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2016 Expected Date of Graduation May 2016 ¥,Coli Undergrad -Hrest<. l-D Sanford 2 2Lf89 -Z'+ Abstract: 20/~ .$~7 As a teenager obsessed with music, I would have loved to read a novel about band members. During college, I finally decided to close that gap in young adult literature. For this thesis, I finished a series I have been working on since freshman year about a girl and all her adventures with her brother's band. I wrote the novel for teenagers to not only enjoy, but to gain something from. I wanted teenagers to take away something from my novel while also enjoying the fantasy of hanging out with their favorite band. Acknowledgements: -I would like to thank Angela Jackson-Brown for helping me throughout the semester. She was able to jump into a story that was already being told and help me create something I am really proud of. Sanford 3 Works Cited Hinton, S.E. The Outsiders. New York: Viking, 1967. Print.

Each story was told in the point of view of one of the sisters. While each story had a different plot, the characters stayed the same throughout the entire novel.

  • 2012 Annual Report
    IN MEMORY OF DAVID MCKENNA 08.06.1979 – 12.14.2012 While 2012 was a year of much growth for our team, it also brought tragedy when we lost David McKenna to a fatal car accident on December 14. David was a good friend to many of us, as well as a cornerstone in the foundation of To Write Love on Her Arms. He was the one who took the lead during those first five days spent with Renee, encouraging her and helping her get into treatment. His own life included addiction, which was a powerful factor in his desire to help Renee along a path he had walked himself. The story of those days would eventually be “The TWLOHA Story” with which so many of us connected. During the final years of his life, David also worked tirelessly to bring that story to a new audience, through the film Day One. We remember David now—his struggles and triumphs, his compassion and companionship— and we hope that TWLOHA’s work might continue to touch lives like he did. As our founder Jamie shared following David’s death, “This life is short and fragile, but friendship is among the greatest miracles.” TWLOHA, Inc. Melbourne, FL twloha.com © 2013 To Write Love on Her Arms Designer: Carra Sykes FOREWORD by Aaron Moore It was hard to believe that 2012 marked the sixth The many efforts of TWLOHA throughout the year— anniversary of To Write Love on Her Arms; the “old from counseling scholarships and Hope Goes Surfing days” in 2006 often seem like yesterday to me.
