  • Atom and His Package Possibly the Smallest Band on the List, Atom & His
    Atom and His Package Possibly the smallest band on the list, Atom & his Package consists of Adam Goren (Atom) and his package (a Yamaha music sequencer) make funny punk songs utilising many of of the package's hundreds of instruments about the metric system, the lead singer of Judas Priest and what Jewish people do on Christmas. Now moved on to other projects, Atom will remain the person who told the world Anarchy Means That I Litter, The Palestinians Are Not the Same Thing as the Rebel Alliance Jackass, and If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're a ****. Ghost Mice With only two members in this folk/punk band their voices and their music can be heard along with such pride. This band is one of the greatest to come out of the scene because of their abrasive acoustic style. The band consists of a male guitarist (I don't know his name) and Hannah who plays the violin. They are successful and very well should be because it's hard to 99 when you have such little to work with. This band is off Plan It X records and they put on a fantastic show. Not only is the band one of the leaders of the new genre called folk/punk but I'm sure there is going to be very big things to come from them and it will always be from the heart. Defiance, Ohio Defiance, Ohio are perhaps one of the most compassionate and energetic leaders of the "folk/punk" movement. Their clever lyrics accompanied by fast, melodic, acoustic guitars make them very enjoyable to listen to.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, Santa Barbara Los Angeles Latinx Ska: Subaltern Rhythms, Co-optation of Sound, and New Cultural Visions from a Transnational Latin America A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Latin American and Iberian Studies by Denny Alvarez Committee in charge: Professor Casey Walsh, Chair Professor George Lipsitz Professor William I. Robinson December 2018 The thesis of Denny Alvarez is approved. _____________________________________ George Lipsitz _____________________________________ William I. Robinson _____________________________________ Casey Walsh, Chair December 2018 ACKNOWLEGEMENTS First and foremost, I want to thank the Latinx youth of Southern California who create, attend, perform, dance, and ultimately allow musical spaces of solidarity to exist. This includes but is not limited to those who agreed to the interviews but also to those who have made the effort for these spaces to exist long before I decided to write this thesis. Without their history of creative forms of expression and organization this study would not have been possible. Specifically, I want to thank Tony for being a point of reference, for introducing me to new people, and to potential interviewees. I extend my gratitude to Jonny of SoCal Syndicate who also provided me with invaluable information of the complex forms of organization that are needed for these spaces. It was truly inspiring to witness the amount of work and effort Jonny makes to create and sustain the musical space. I am also grateful to Jesus of Emphatic Entertainment for his insight and for the efforts he makes to extend the Ska scene beyond Los Angeles such as in Las Vegas and the Inland Empire.

There had yet to be a punk rock band there until the mid-2000s. In the following paper, I detail the rise of heavy metal in Morocco. Beginning with the early metal scene, I trace through critical moments in its growth, building up to the origins of the Moroccan punk scene and the state of those subcultures in recent years.

  • Too Much Too Young
    TOO MUCH TOO YOUNG A novel by Steve Piper - foreword by Neville Staple Steve Piper’s novel is a bumpy ride on the ska train. All aboard and hold tight! Beginning in 1979, it latches on to the explosion of the 2 Tone movement; Jerry Dammers its engine driver. Britain’s youth jumped on as it steamed through the cities; Coventry, Birmingham, London, Manchester... leaving no town or city untouched. Youth - best dressed in a style that lent hefty nods to Jamaican rude boys and original ’69 skinheads with trimmings of early mod styling and post- punk energy. Decked out in Fred Perry polo shirts, sta-prest trousers, tasselled loafers and Dr. Marten boots, Harrington jackets, second hand suit jackets; three button of course (even better if they were tonik and all festooned with button badges of allegiance they gathered). The rudeboys; in the streets, on estates, in shopping centres, in parks, at bus stops, at gigs, smoking fags, snogging girls and quaffing from the occasional elicit bottle of cider. This was the time when having cropped hair could get you suspended from school, at least, until it grew back. Their soundtrack was a hybrid; quite naturally, a mix of heavyweight ska and reggae from Jamaica, the funk of ‘60s soul and the political anger of punk rock. What other sound could groups such as The Special AKA, The Selecter, The Beat, Madness, Bad Manners, The Bodysnatchers and Dexys Midnight Runners pro - duce? Boasting ranks full of black, white,some older, some younger, male and female musicians, they all produced frenetic, hard edged, high octane dancefloor dynamite with a heavy bass heartbeat.
