It's very minor on appears only in the center. Adding my record wait lays it flat, but it's annoying. GawelleN My copy doesn't sound good. Its not noisy but it sounds like it was just ripped from a CD file. Its flat and sounds kinda like a bootleg. Anyone else have this issue? I wonder how the back sounds. Maybe its just the white wax Landarn I agree. It sounds just like the black LP. ALl three versions I have (black, white, red and blue) have surface noise on Disillusioned, The Doomed, So Long and Thanks for All the Fish, Hourglass, and Get the Lead Out. Basically, all the quieter songs. It's annoying. But it sounds better than the CD and digital. I_LOVE_228 Not really, I think it sounds great. My only issue is a bit of no fill in some places. But the sound is fantastic. The production may not be to your taste though. Gold as Heart It sounds identical to the black LPs as far as I can tell. It doesn't sound like a CD at all, in my opinion. The red and blue release is a different story. It's more noisy. nadness How is this cover different than the standard black vinyl? EXIBUZYW I think they're the same except they're flipped - so the hype sticker is on the opposite side, like if you were looking at them in a shop the black vinyl would have the long hair weirdo, the white vinyl would have the bald head weirdo. aside form that the only diff i saw was the hype sticker notes very small thats its white vinyl. Oddly enough my local shop had the white version for 5 bucks less! Dancing Lion I'd like to know the answer to this as well. I don't see it. Dori I know the record label really screwed retailers, collectors, and the fans by promising too many of the white pressings and not delivering... Der Bat They are releasing a Red/Blue version this summer - grab it if you are looking for a variant: https://store.aperfectcircle.com/collections/eat-the-elephant/products/eat-the-elephant-limited-editio n-lp-digital-download-bundle Thorgahuginn Say what you want about the looks but it sounds beautifully! Big up! Whitesmasher Anyone else have the labels on the wrong side on side C and side D? White Indie version. Shou Yes...mine has label C on D side and vice versa...... Wenyost Nope, right label on right side! You just have an extra limited one :) Whiteflame How "limited" is this version? Anyone know how many were pressed? Kahavor They certainly are selling black ones. It wasn't easy fo me to get a copy. I pre ordered one, canceled. I showed up at a huge revord store on release morning. They had none Kelezel Its here on lost in vinyl . Check this link - https://www.lostinvinyl.org/shop/a-perfect-circle-eat-the-elephant-ltd-white-vinyl-2lp-pre-order-releas e-date-20th-april.

And for Laura Ingram Ellis: as much as I wanted this dissertation to spring forth from my head fully formed, like Athena from Zeus’s forehead, it did not happen that way. It happened one sentence at a time, some more excruciatingly wrought than others, and you were there for every single sentence.

This track is the beginning of an album of songs whose great hooks belie their rich narrative content. It is surely among Hayman‟s most catchy batches of songs and that‟s saying something. The electric blue-grass band he has assembled gives this record a fuller sound than his last outing with the appropriately named solo project Table For One. Occasional use of horns, uplifting saxophone here, delicate trumpet there, and the presence of guitars now fully back since the electronic experiments of Dead Media and Local Information all up the power but don‟t deaden the wit.

  • Aenima (Metal)
    TOOL Aenima (Metal) Année de sortie : 1996 Nombre de pistes : 15 Durée : 77' Support : CD Provenance : Acheté Nous avons décidé de vous faire découvrir (ou re découvrir) les albums qui ont marqué une époque et qui nous paraissent importants pour comprendre l'évolution de notre style préféré. Nous traiterons de l'album en le réintégrant dans son contexte originel (anecdotes, etc.)... Une chronique qui se veut 100% "passionnée" et "nostalgique" et qui nous l'espérons, vous fera réagir par le biais des commentaires ! ...... Bon voyage ! Le guitariste Adam JONES justifie la création de TOOL en se fondant sur une théorie développée par l’auteur Ronald P. Vincent. En 1949, ce dernier publie une œuvre unique, A joyful guide to lachrymology, dans laquelle il proclame que la progression et le développement personnels nécessitent l’exploration de la douleur physique et de la peine. Vincent souhaite fonder une philosophie en ce sens, la lacrymologie. JONES conçoit la musique de son groupe comme un outil (« tool » en anglais) destiné à permettre au public de la comprendre. Quelques mois après la formation du groupe, Ronald P. Vincent décède d’une cirrhose ; le musicien étudie alors sans relâche son ouvrage. Curieuse motivation pour former un groupe ; il s’agit en vérité d’une pure invention ! Pas plus l’auteur que son ouvrage n’a existé. Né de l’imagination d’Adam JONES, ce mythe figure dans un historique distribué avec les copies promotionnelles de l’album Undertow (1993), et serait destiné à tourner en dérision les mouvements sectaires. Plus sérieusement, JONES rencontre le chanteur Maynard James KEENAN à Los Angeles en 1986.

I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 85,522 words. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis explores issues of subjectivity, collective identity, relatedness and class among young men on Cairo’s underground gay scenes. My thesis, based on 18 months of ethnographic research (November 2009-March 2011) among in Cairo, focuses on the diversity of ways in which ‘gay’ identities are embraced, questioned, and critiqued through the day to day activities of life in the city, and the construction of spaces in which the men move. The thesis analyzes various forms of instability and ambiguity relating to men’s sexuality both on the individual and scene levels.

Available at: http://scholarship.claremont.edu/lux/vol3/iss1/9 Lalama: Transnational Punk Lalama 1 Transnational Punk: The Growing Push for Global Change Through a Music-Based Subculture Alexander Lalama, M.A. Claremont Graduate University School of Arts and Humanities Department of English Abstract Little media attention has been devoted to the burgeoning punk scene that has raised alarm abroad in areas such as Banda Aceh, Indonesia and Moscow, Russia. While the punk subculture has been analyzed in-depth by such notable theorists as Dick Hebdige and Stuart Hall, their work has been limited to examining the rise and apparent decline of the subculture in England, rendering any further investigations into punk as looking back at a nostalgic novelty of post- World War II British milieu. Furthermore, the commodification of punk music and style has relegated punk to the realm of an alternative culture in Britain and locally in the U.S. In these current international incarnations, however, a social space for this alternative culture is threatened by severe punishment including what Indonesian police officials have label “moral rehabilitation” and, in the case of Russian punks, imprisonment.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Reading Comic Books Critically: How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education by Fang-Tzu Hsu 2015 © Copyright by Fang-Tzu Hsu 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reading Comic Books Critically: How Japanese Comic Books Influence Taiwanese Students by Fang-Tzu Hsu Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Carlos A. Torres, Chair Education knows no boundaries but hot button topics, like comic books, demonstrate school, teacher and parent limitations. Japanese comic books (manga) are a litmus test of pedagogical tolerance. Because they play an important role in the lives of most Taiwanese teenagers, I give them pride of place in this dissertation. To understand Japanese comic books and their influence, I use Paulo Freire’s critical pedagogy to combine perspectives from cultural studies, comparative education, and educational sociology. With the cooperation of the administration, faculty and students of a Taiwanese junior high school, I used surveys, a textual analysis of five student-selected titles and interviews with students and educators. I discovered that Japanese manga contain complex and sometimes contradictory ideologies of ethnicity, gender, class, and violence. From an ethnic perspective, although students may glean cultural content from manga heroes and their retinues, people of color and non-Japanese Asians are either caricatures or non-existent; although Taiwanese teenager readers seem unaware of this. From a gender standpoint, neither the female characters’ provocative representation nor the male characters’ slavering responses to it raise students’ and teachers’ concerns.
