  • David Menconi
    David Menconi “But tonight, we’re experiencing something much more demented. Something much more American. And something much more crazy. I put it to you, Bob: Goddammit, what’s goin’ on?” —Dexter Romweber, “2 Headed Cow” (1986) (Or as William Carlos Williams put it 63 years earlier: “The Pure Products of America/Go crazy.”) To the larger world outside the Southeastern college towns of Chapel Hill and Athens, Flat Duo Jets’ biggest brush up against the mainstream came with the self-titled first album comprising the heart of this collection. That was 1990’s “Flat Duo Jets,” a gonzo blast of interstellar rockabilly firepower that turned Jack White, X’s Exene Cervenka and oth- er latterday American underground-rock stars into fans and acolytes. In its wake, the Jets toured America with The Cramps and played “Late Night with David Letterman,” astounding audiences with rock ’n’ roll as pure and uncut as anybody was making in the days B.N. (Before Nirvana). But that kind of passionate devotion was nothing new for the Jets. For years, they’d been turning heads and blowing minds in their Chapel Hill home- town as a veritable rite of passage for music-scene denizens of a certain age. Just about everyone in town from that era has a story about happening across the Jets in their mid-’80s salad days, often performing in some terri- bly unlikely place – record store, coffeeshop, hallway, even the middle of the street – channeling some far-off mojo that seemed to open portals to the past and future at the same time.

The pivotal role of social networks in the cultural production of music is first examined by treating an independent record label of the post- punk era as an offline social network.

  • International Pop Underground Parks, Van Dyke
    Underground Architects of Modern Pop Music: A Core Collection February 22, 2008, Newport, RI In the summer of 2006 a new music course was launched at Youngstown State University, Underground Architects of Modern Pop Music. The course was a survey of unsung composers, experimentalists, and bands that although commercially unsuccessful by music industry standards, have proven since to be powerfully influential. The artists examined created music for its own sake and recorded and released their music on small, independent labels. In some cases they recorded in their own living rooms or basements, fostering the DIY (Do it yourself) ethic that is now transforming the music business as we know it. The course began with a consideration of the pop music industry, how “hits” are manufactured, the double-edged nature of copyright, and payola. This set the stage for analytical, critical listening, both to the innovators who were virtually unknown at the time and to the chart-topping hits of the time. The contrast between the two was profound and prompted much and vigorous discussion. What emerged is a bibliography of essential recordings, monographs, and DVDs representative of the most influential, “under the radar” artists from the late 1960’s to the early 1990’s, a core collection. Students and scholars in music and an array of interdisciplinary fields will benefit immensely from exposure to the innovations and inventions of the artists and material included here.

  • Thesis an Indie Hype Cycle Built for Two: a Case Study
    THESIS AN INDIE HYPE CYCLE BUILT FOR TWO: A CASE STUDY OF THE PITCHFORK ALBUM REVIEWS OF ARCADE FIRE AND CLAP YOUR HANDS SAY YEAH Submitted by Samuel R. Ernst Department of Communication Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2012 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Jonathan Lupo David Scott Diffrient Deborah Thompson ABSTRACT AN INDIE HYPE CYCLE BUILT FOR TWO: A CASE STUDY OF THE PITCHFORK ALBUM REVIEWS OF ARCADE FIRE AND CLAP YOUR HANDS SAY YEAH This thesis investigates the whims of critical reception in the indie rock world and its effects upon the hype cycle. I define the indie hype cycle as a naturalized communicative process governing the flow of critical favor within the indie music community and identify its four primary phases as entrance on to the scene, hype generation, backlash, and obscurity/visibility. To understand the interaction between the hype cycle and critical reception, the project focuses on Arcade Fire and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (CYHSY) as two bands emblematic of the critical divergence possible after initial success. It compares the reviews of the bands’ debut and sophomore albums by Pitchfork, a prominent indie music website, and identifies genre, elitism, and authenticity as key constructs in the way the site frames the bands as indie, and thus, worthy of praise. I argue that an economy of authenticity—featuring emotional, economic, and talent- based forms—affects the indie hype cycle in a variety of ways. The thesis concludes that the mechanics of indie music criticism have extensive influence upon the indie hype cycle.

  • P of Progressive Rock, and from the from the Exclusiveness of Forebears Like the Velvets and Kraftwerk and Roxy and Bowie
    POST-PUNK POST-PUNK 1979 | POST-PUNK Post-punk has a lousy name. It’s temporally accurate, mostly; and meaningful in that post-punk music generally benefited from the jolt of energy and attitude that briefly was punk, even when it was often made by musicians who’d been at it for years. But punk was mostly musically and culturally discrete, insular and self-constrained. Post-punk, conversely, represented a flourishing of many sounds, myriad scenes, and many styles, all with roots reaching back (garage rock, krautrock, funk, jazz, musique concrete, ska) and branches reaching out and intertwining (hip-hop, disco, Latin musics, dub), all while leaning eagerly forward into the future. In part post-punk was the liberation of “art rock” from the virtuosic grip of progressive rock, and from the from the exclusiveness of forebears like the Velvets and Kraftwerk and Roxy and Bowie. It was to varying degrees the breaking down of barriers between “rock” and non-white musics, always with the risk of appropriation; but mostly created with a sincere attitude of learning and engagement, rather than theft. Women in post-punk were not an oddity, an opening act, but were instead at the very center of its most creative scenes in a way rock music had rarely seen. Certainly post-punk was a rejection of “disco-sucks” and cock-rock meatheadedness, as even its simplest power pop forms generally rejected brute machismo. Post-punk was revolutionary in that it helped expand rock music’s typical access to means of production, and broadened the circle of who could be at the forefront; but it was also evolutionary of rock music’s best possibilities, no an ex nihilo event, and as such was made to last.

  • Alternative Rock
    Alternative rock From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Alternative rock (also called alternative music, alt-rock or simply alternative) is a genre of rock music that emerged in the 1980s and became widely popular in the 1990s. Alternative rock consists of various subgenres that have emerged from the independent music scene since the 1980s, such as grunge, Britpop, gothic rock, and indie pop. These genres are unified by their collective debt to the style and/or ethos of punk rock, which laid the groundwork for alternative music in the 1970s.[1] At times alternative rock has been used as a catch-all phrase for rock music from underground artists in the 1980s, and all music descended from punk rock (including punk itself, New Wave, and post-punk). While a few bands like R.E.M. and The Cure achieved commercial success and mainstream critical recognition, many alternative rock artists during the 1980s were cult acts that recorded on independent labels and received their exposure through college radio airplay and word-of-mouth. With the breakthrough of Nirvana and the popularity of the grunge and Britpop movements in the 1990s, alternative rock entered the musical mainstream and many alternative bands became commercially successful. The term "alternative rock" Before the term "alternative rock" came into common usage around 1990, the sort of music to which it refers was known by a variety of terms.[2] "College rock" was used in the United States to describe the music during the 1980s due to its links to the college radio circuit and the tastes of college students.
