A los 17 años, EN 1968, Jeffrey Hyman -su verdadero nombre- empezó a vagar las calles del West JVillage porque no se sentía cómodo en su casa, le molestaba el colegio y hasta los vecinos. Ahí empezó su problema con las drogas alucinógenas. Pero la relación con su madre siempre fue óptima, inclusive le enseño a fumar marihuana. Con respecto a lo físico, era zurdo y sufría un trastorno obsesivo Julio-Agosto de 2008 | Año I - N° 11 compulsivo lo cuál influyó enormemente a la hora de desarrollar su | característica sensibilidad y creatividad que posteriormente pondría en práctica en composiciones como «The KKK Took My Baby Away» y «She’s a Sensation». El 30 de marzo de 1976, Joey arma una banda musical con John Cummings y Douglas Colvin. El nombre de la banda es, curiosamente, The Ramones, en homenaje al seudónimo que Paul Mc Cartney utilizaba cuando los Beatles estaban de gira en Hamburgo: Paul Ramone. Desde ese momento en adelante, deciden conformarse como una familia, adoptando todos el mismo apellido: Johnny Ramone, guitarrista; Dee-Dee Ramone, bajista; Tommy Ramone, baterista; y Joey Ramone, cantante. Y al poco tiempo comienzan a sonar en la escena neoyorkina, todavía sumergida en el El Extremo Sur de la Patagonia underground, y la gente fija la mirada en lo que ellos llevan a cabo, porque era algo completamente original. Eran un cuarteto de chicos norteamericanos, que crearon las bases musicales para el punk rock, demostrándole al mundo que «si tienes ganas de hacer algo, hazlo». Eran algo acelerados, con pocos conocimientos musicales, y se lanzaron a tocar covers de sus grupos favoritos. Pero en su intento, se dieron cuenta que no eran buenos músicos y todo lo que tocaban les salía muy rápido; y así sin querer le dieron forma musical al punk. Los Ramones mezclaron bases del pop más primitivo con algo del estilo surfer, una esencia de rockabillie, y por otra parte un apoyo en el glitter rock. La suma de todas estas influencias, definió el sonido del grupo; y que hasta en nuestros días de hoy se reconoce como su sello. Además, a lo largo de toda su carrera siempre intentaron ser fieles a su propio estilo y a sus fanáticos. En cuanto a su manera de vestir, usaban sus atuendos de pandillero neoyorquino decadente y demodé, con chaquetas de cuero y jeans andrajosos; iban acompañados de un sonido primitivo y de letras directas que versaban sobre vivencias y frustraciones de cualquier chico criado en Queens. 2 En escena siempre se vieron ENTRE 1968 Y 1976, EL imparables, y con shows de 40 ROCK AND ROLL minutos y 30 canciones al hilo, las GOZABA DE INCREIBLE unía el legendario 1, 2, 3, 4, CREATIVIDAD, ganaron la simpatía del público.

  • American Punk: the Relations Between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture
    American Punk: The Relations between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture Gerfried Ambrosch ABSTRACT Punk culture has its roots on both sides of the Atlantic. Despite continuous cross-fertiliza- tion, the British and the American punk traditions exhibit distinct features. There are notable aesthetic and lyrical differences, for instance. The causes for these dissimilarities stem from the different cultural, social, and economic preconditions that gave rise to punk in these places in the mid-1970s. In the U. K., punk was mainly a movement of frustrated working-class youths who occupied London’s high-rise blocks and whose families’ livelihoods were threatened by a declin- ing economy and rising unemployment. Conversely, in America, punk emerged as a middle-class phenomenon and a reaction to feelings of social and cultural alienation in the context of suburban life. Even city slickers such as the Ramones, New York’s counterpart to London’s Sex Pistols and the United States’ first ‘official’ well-known punk rock group, made reference to the mythology of suburbia (not just as a place but as a state of mind, and an ideal, as well), advancing a subver- sive critique of American culture as a whole. Engaging critically with mainstream U.S. culture, American punk’s constitutive other, punk developed an alternative sense of Americanness. Since the mid-1970s, punk has produced a plethora of bands and sub-scenes all around the world. This phenomenon began almost simultaneously on both sides of the Atlantic—in London and in New York, to be precise—and has since spread to the most remote corners of the world.

  • 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.
