World-Famous Tattoo Artist PAUL BOOTH's LAST For Immediate Release July 18th, 2011 World-Famous Tattoo Artist PAUL BOOTH’s LAST RITES GALLERY & TATTOO THEATRE in NYC Announces More Details for ‘The Grand Reincarnation’ Weekend World-famous tattoo artist PAUL BOOTH has just announced more special details on ‘The Grand Reincarnation’ events taking place on July 22nd, 23rd and 24th at his LAST RITES GALLERY & TATTOO THEATRE, located on the 3rd floor at 511 West 33rd Street in New York City. ‘The Grand Reincarnation’ events are in celebration of the recent re-building and evolution of the gallery and theatre. See below for the new details and information on special guests, and to learn more information about ‘The Grand Reincarnation’ and the general schedule of events, please visit this location. Saturday July 23rd – New Information: The second evening to our weekend is when we drop the black curtains and launch the all new TATTOO THEATRE area of our space. Not only is this another chance to take in the art of ChetZar and Craig Larotonda, but on this special night you can truly soak in the entire LAST RITES experience. To really bring it home, appearing on our new performance stage, we have two of our favorite partners in crime making a special appearance: Jamie Kilstein, our favorite stand up comedian (you may have seen him on Conan O’ Brian), totally uncensored! Making a special trip all the way from Budapest, Attila Csihar, vocalist from the infamous band Mayhem, will present his solo dark ambient project VOID OV VOICES. Together, these two artists truly represent the driving force of LAST RITES philosophy. Along with a strolling funerary violinist… you truly do not want to miss this! Sunday July 24th –New Information: Sunday brings a great time to wind things down as we bring great painterly talent together from our family of artists to paint live at LAST RITES. This is a great opportunity to witness these masters bring their stunning creations to life right before your eyes. Feel free to mingle and soak in an immense degree of creative energy and artistic inspiration. Artists for Sunday's live painting event include: Shawn Barber, Kim Saigh, Chet Zar, Genevive Zacconi, Angie Mason, Fred Harper, Billy Norrby, Matt Rota, Martin Wittfooth, Paul Booth, The ArtFusion Experiment and more! ----------------------- SATURDAY’S SPECIAL GUESTS: Jamie Kilstein: “Watching Jamie reminds me of why I got into comedy. It is like watching a combination of George Carlin and Bill Hicks.” - Janeane Garofalo “Hilarious and scathing.” - Rolling Stone Magazine “”Jamie Kilstein is a doofus.” - Glenn Beck “There are few truly insightful, passionate and hysterically funny political comedians around, and even fewer coming out of the States. New Yorker Jamie Kilstein is a shining light probing into the murkier corners of the religious right and corrupt politics of his homeland. Funny and penetrating, he’s taken Bill Hicks’ baton and run with it.” - Time Out London “Jamie Kilstein and Allison Kilkenny have created an important political radio show that balances humor and unreported news. At a time when media conglomerates dominate the airwaves, independent media like Citizen Radio is vital to national discourse.” - Noam Chomsky “Comedy and music have always been instrumental in distilling the essence of political debate and social issues. In a time where artists and comedians too often shy away from that legacy, Citizen Radio is a rare gem of reason and thought-provoking dialogue. Jamie and Allison are intelligent and unapologetic agitators in a world that needs some shaking up, and I, for one, am grateful for that” – Tim McIlrath, lead singer of Rise Against Attila Csihar: VOID OV VOICES is the solo Dark Ambient project of Budapest, Hungary based vocalist Attila Csihar. Since 1992, Attila has been the lead vocalist in the influential Norwegian black metal band Mayhem and since 2004 he has been the permanent guest vocalist for the doom/drone metal band Sunn O))). Csihar states the concept behind Void Ov Voice is to use “only my voice as an instrument via a loop machine and effects”; through this process Csihar creates some of the most haunting Dark atmosphere and Ritualistic chants that could likely raise the Hordes from the depths of Hell itself. His main goal with Void Ov Voices is to play live shows where the visual aspects and live experience is sure to enhance the overall effect.

  • Mysticism, Implicit Religion and Gravetemple's Drone Metal By
    1 The Invocation at Tilburg: Mysticism, Implicit Religion and Gravetemple’s Drone Metal by Owen Coggins 1.1 On 18th April 2013, an extremely slow, loud and noisy “drone metal” band Gravetemple perform at the Roadburn heavy metal and psychedelic rock festival in Tilburg in the Netherlands. After forty-five minutes of gradually intensifying, largely improvised droning noise, the band reach the end of their set. Guitarist Stephen O’Malley conjures distorted chords, controlled by a bank of effects pedals; vocalist Attila Csihar, famous for his time as singer for notorious and controversial black metal band Mayhem, ritualistically intones invented syllables that echo monastic chants; experimental musician Oren Ambarchi extracts strange sounds from his own looped guitar before moving to a drumkit to propel a scattered, urgent rhythm. Momentum overtaking him, a drumstick slips from Ambarchi’s hand, he breaks free of the drum kit, grabs for a beater, turns, and smashes the gong at the centre of the stage. For two long seconds the all-encompassing rumble that has amassed throughout the performance drones on with a kind of relentless inertia, still without a sonic acknowledgement of the visual climax. Finally, the pulsating wave from the heavily amplified gong reverberates through the corporate body of the audience, felt in physical vibration more than heard as sound. The musicians leave the stage, their abandoned instruments still expelling squalling sounds which gradually begin to dissipate. Listeners breathe out, perhaps open their eyes, raise their heads, shift their feet and awaken enough to clap and shout appreciation, before turning to friends or strangers, reaching for phrases and gestures, often in a vocabulary of ritual, mysticism and transcendence, which might become touchstones for recollection and communication of their individual and shared experience.

  • Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music
    Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption.

  • Sunn O))) Was Formed in 1998 by Stephen O'malley and Greg
    Sunn O))) was formed in 1998 by Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson. They were initially based in Seattle, shortly before moving to Los Angeles, and O'Malley now resides in Paris. The band have become known for their very recognisable “drone metal” sound, and extremely loud live performances. Widely considered pioneering, their music can be described as very slow, with distorted guitars, and an emphasis on texture rather than rhythm. Their name, pronounced "sun", is a reference to the Sunn amplifier brand, and their logo is that of the amplifier’s too. Over their seven solo studio albums and scores of EPs, live albums and other releases, Sunn O))) have collaborated and recorded with artists across the globe, including Scott Walker, Attila Csihar (Mayhem), Kim Thayil (Soundgarden), Japan’s Boris, Norway’s Ulver, Nurse With Wound, Petra Hayden, Julian Cope (The Teardrop Explodes), John Wiese, Oren Ambarchi, Malefic, Julian Priester, Eyvind Kang, Dylan Carlson, Stuart Dempster, and many more. Their early releases were met with acclaim across various underground music scenes, and steadily their profile has risen, becoming something of a household name in the alternative music, and arts worlds. The band have played across the world at many prestigious festivals and venues, in the past year at David Byrne’s Meltdown at the Southbank Centre in London, and curating a four day program at Le Guess Who? Festival in Utrecht. Other notable appearances include Barcelona’s Sonar (2009), Krakow’s Unsound (2009), CTM Berlin (2013), Japan’s Earthdom (2007) and Leave Them All Behind (2012), North Carolina’s Hopscotch (2012), Australia’s Totally Huge New Music Festival (2007) and All Tomorrow’s Parties/The Nightmare Before Christmas (2003, 2004, 2007 and 2009) and Supersonic (2007 and 2009) in the UK.

  • Music As Transgression: Masking and Sonic Abjection in Norwegian Black Metal
    MUSIC AS TRANSGRESSION: MASKING AND SONIC ABJECTION IN NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL by Woodrow Steinken B.A., New York University, 2015 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts & Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Pittsburgh 2018 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS & SCIENCES This thesis was presented by Woodrow Steinken It was defended on March 28, 2018 and approved by Olivia Bloechl, Professor, Music James Cassaro, Professor, Music Thesis Director: Deane Root, Professor, Music ii Copyright © by Woodrow Steinken 2018 iii MUSIC AS TRANSGRESSION: MASKING AND SONIC ABJECTION IN NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL Woodrow Steinken, M.A. University of Pittsburgh, 2018 In the late 1980s, the Second Wave of black metal was founded in Norway by the band Mayhem. This heavy metal scene was populated by bands such as Emperor, Darkthrone, Burzum, Gorgoroth, and Satyricon. These bands performed chaotic music, often setting lyrics with themes of Satanism, anti-Christianity, murder, rape, and torture. Extremely fast or slow tempos, unusual song structures, distortion, and lo-fi sound quality distinguished the scene stylistically from other European and American heavy metals. The individuals who created this music did so under the disguise of masks: pseudonyms and corpsepaint, a makeup style that makes one look like a corpse. Members of black metal bands also engaged in extremely violent and criminal activities, including burning churches, murdering strangers and friends for various reasons, and committing suicide. This thesis explores the connections between the music and the transgressions of this music subculture, with masking at the intersection between the two.

THE ISSUE IS NOT THE ISSUE Sara AbiBoutros* The use of public space to peacefully assemble is essential to the success of any social movement fighting for social justice. Without a space for people to come together, it would be impossible to engage with one another, to plan, and to make our civil disobedience visible to the public. The convergence of public and private institutions to curtail the use of space to quash free speech is evident through the repression of the Free Speech Movement (“FSM”) in the 1960s and Occupy Wall Street (“OWS”) in 2011.
