    [KING TUT’S, TUESDAY 1ST MAY] Why is it that I seem to attract every single dodger, pimp, crack-whore, wife-beater and drug-dealer within scamming distance, no matter where I go? It’s starting to worry me now; am I some kind of freak that they recognise a mile away? ‘Ah, there’s goes Kai. He’ll be up for some pills/coke/pot/sex/stabbing!’ Er, no, no, maybe, OK, and no. Perhaps it’s just Glasgow, maybe everyone gets the same treatment. I wasn’t even in freak mode - French Connection t-shirt, skater trousers, wallet chain, nu-metal hair, no make-up; how much more mainstream can you get? Nevermind, maybe I should just be grateful that everyone wants to sell me their last bit of pot, their unwanted Temazepan and their teenage daughter. Ben would be. Shit, I said I wasn’t gonna go on about that, didn’t I? OK, forget I said that. Anyway, I’m standing at the station, waiting for my train, when I am approached by a man wearing a blue anorak. He has short hair, bad teeth and a scarred face. Read: Typical Glaswegian dodger. Run! ‘A’right mate, you got a light?’ ‘No, sorry - I don’t smoke.’ ‘D’ya want tae buy some pot, £20 for this bit? Y’see I dinnae smoke it ma’self, it just got it for ma brother, but he’s nae turned up, and ah need tae get ma train-fare so ah can get home?’ Oh my god, here we go again.

  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.
