  • The New Soul of an Old Machine | 80S Essentials, Industrial Revolution
    80s Essentials, Industrial Revolution [Because the decade was a formative time for so much more than just our beloved heavy metal, today we're pleased to present you with a look at fifteen essential industrial albums from the 1980s.] I’m neither historian nor sociologist enough to speak to the politico- economic milieu that shaped industrial music’s formative clatterings, but a few general observations may suffice. The advanced industrial world was hardly being ground in the same way as by the ravenous gears of the late- eighteenth/early-nineteenth century Industrial Revolution (cf. Friedrich Engels on The Condition of the Working Class in England), but the 1970s and ‘80s saw an increasingly aggressive attack on the social welfare state that had so flourished in the three or four decades since the end of World War II. The elections of Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, and Helmut Kohl (in Britain, the U.S., and West Germany, respectively) ushered in an era of neoliberal government retrenchment that would largely define the domestic political debate in the years to follow, while throwing the (often uneasy) balance between capital and labor into disrepair throughout the rich world. Reagan’s tough-talking rhetoric meant that many of the signs of rapprochement and detente that had offered brief glimmers of, if not hope, then perhaps bleakly muted optimism in the 1970s gave way to a renewed era of Cold War stridency and military hand-wringing. In many ways, then, the same social, political, economic, and cultural context that led to the development of punk’s disaffected worldview and heavy metal’s increasingly doom-saying weightiness would also provide grist for the eternally wending mill of nascent musical experimentalism that gradually coalesced into industrial music.

  • Chris Vrenna AL.Com Article
    Why is Nine Inch Nails' ex-drummer teaching college in Alabama? By Matt Wake | [email protected] | Posted October 23, 2018 at 07:13 PM | Updated October 24, 2018 at 09:42 AM 12.5k shares 7 Comment Courtesy photo The intro to mass communication teacher at Calhoun Community College once ate a light-bulb as part of a backstage dare, while on-tour with Nine Inch Nails in the early '90s. He was that platinum-selling industrial-rock band's original drummer. And a critical part of their now- classic recordings. The same teacher later performed around the globe with shock-rocker Marilyn Manson. If you saw future-R&B group Gnarls Barkley's concerts promoting their smash 2006 single "Crazy" and debut album "St. Elsewhere," he was behind the drum-kit then too. At one point, he was hunkered down with Axl Rose, trying to come up with music for Guns N' Roses' infamous, decade-plus gestating "Chinese Democracy" album. Chris Vrenna has done all those things during his music career. And more. Currently, in addition to intro to mass com, Vrenna is teaching intro to recording technology, studio production and Pro Tools at Calhoun, a school with an enrollment of around 10,000 and located in Decatur, a north Alabama city best known for being home to Point Mallard water-park and rocket manufacturer United Launch Alliance. Vrenna's more than OK with being there. "You never know what life's going to be and I like a new challenge and I like teaching," he says. He's seated behind a desk in a small office - decorated with platinum records, model rockets and Funko figures of Jimi Hendrix and Amy Winehouse - inside the Alabama Center for the Arts.

  • Osborn Et Al Buzz Clips
    l Research Article Music & Science Volume 3: 1–14 ª The Author(s) 2020 Content and Correlational Analysis Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions of a Corpus of MTV-Promoted Music DOI: 10.1177/2059204320902369 Videos Aired Between 1990 and 1999 journals.sagepub.com/home/mns Brad Osborn , Emily Rossin and Kevin Weingarten Abstract From 1990 to 1999 MTV promoted a series of 288 music videos called “Buzz Clips”, designed to highlight emerging artists and genres. Such promotion had a measurable impact on an artists’ earnings and record sales. To date, the kinds of musical and visual practices MTV promoted have not been quantitatively analyzed. Just what made some videos Buzzworthy, and others not? We applied two phases of content analysis to this corpus to determine the most common sonic and visual signifiers in Buzz Clips, then processed the results of that content analysis using polychoric correlations. Our findings show high degrees of shared variance between certain pairs of musical and visual elements observed in the sample music videos.
