When they were playing slow and heavy, they had that feel that The Melvins had at the time, but they also played very fast and chaotically. Later in their career, they started embracing more of these beautiful elements like psychedelic music. But there’s a natural progression in their growth that I think could have paralleled Soundgarden for part of its career. “ http://blogs.dallasobserver.com/dc9/2011/10/soundgardens_kim_thayil_talks.php Jul 19, 2011 A documentary (DVD released by Universal) about the life and work of Andrew Wood entitled Malfunkshun: The Andrew Wood Story debuted at the Seattle International Film Festival. http://malfunkshun.com Oct 25th, 2011 PJ20 Documentary by Cameron Crowe mentions Andrew Wood the original lead singer of Malfunkshun and the brother of Kevin Wood in the opening segment.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.
