Morrissey Tillbaka Med Nya Singeln ”Spent the Day in Bed” Tagen Från Det Kommande Albumet ”Low in Highshool” 2017-09-19 10:52 CEST Morrissey tillbaka med nya singeln ”Spent the Day in Bed” tagen från det kommande albumet ”Low in Highshool” Morrissey tillbaka med nya singeln ”Spent the Day in Bed” tagen från det kommande albumet ”Low in Highshool” Lyssna här: https://open.spotify.com/album/6B3wbycw5QgjzhrYu48iDK HÖGUPPLÖST OMSLAG: HERE KOLLA OCKSÅ HÄR: ‘SPENT THE DAY IN BED’ HERE PRE-ORDER LOW IN HIGH SCHOOL HERE Morrissey delar idag med sig av “Spent the Day in Bed” som är första singeln från hans kommande album “Low in High School” som släpps via Etienne Recordings/BMG den 17 november. Med all säkerhet kommer du känna igen de där påstridiga texterna framförda över upprymda melodier som kommit att känneteckna honom. Hans vädjande, “Stop watching the news, because the news contrives to frighten you” går så självklart ihop med den sista refrängen, “No bus, no boss, no rain, no train.” Resterande låtar fortsätter i samma stil; han gör upp med politiker och ifrågasätter auktoritet men roar oss också med en och annan traditionell kärlekssång. Morrissey är en lika underhållande som insiktsfull provokatör som likt ingen annan kan väva samman narrativ. “Low in High School” är inget undantag. Det är hans första studioalbum sedan 2014. Dessutom är det hans debut på BMG. Albumet spelades in i La Fabrique i Frankrike, samt i Ennio Morricones studio i Rom. För produktionen står Joe Chiccarelli som tidigare jobbat med Frank Zappa, The Strokes och The White Stripes för att nämna några. Efter att han slog igenom med The Smiths har Morrissey gått vidare för att skörda ännu större framgångar som soloartist. Samtliga av hans tio soloalbum har hamnat topp-tio på den brittiska försäljningslistan, varav tre har legat på förstaplats. Debuten med “Viva Hate” från 1988 har följts upp av hyllade album såsom “Kill Uncle”, “Your Arsenal” och det klassiska comeback- albumet “You Are the Quarry” från 2004. 2013 publicerade Morrissey sin självbiografi som blev en omedelbar bestseller. Low in High School låtlista: 1. My Love I’d Do Anything For You 2. I Wish You Lonely 3. Jacky’s Only Happy When She’s Up On The Stage 4. Home Is A Question Mark 5. Spent The Day In Bed 6.

  • Taking Intellectual Property Into Their Own Hands
    Taking Intellectual Property into Their Own Hands Amy Adler* & Jeanne C. Fromer** When we think about people seeking relief for infringement of their intellectual property rights under copyright and trademark laws, we typically assume they will operate within an overtly legal scheme. By contrast, creators of works that lie outside the subject matter, or at least outside the heartland, of intellectual property law often remedy copying of their works by asserting extralegal norms within their own tight-knit communities. In recent years, however, there has been a growing third category of relief-seekers: those taking intellectual property into their own hands, seeking relief outside the legal system for copying of works that fall well within the heartland of copyright or trademark laws, such as visual art, music, and fashion. They exercise intellectual property self-help in a constellation of ways. Most frequently, they use shaming, principally through social media or a similar platform, to call out perceived misappropriations. Other times, they reappropriate perceived misappropriations, therein generating new creative works. This Article identifies, illustrates, and analyzes this phenomenon using a diverse array of recent examples. Aggrieved creators can use self-help of the sorts we describe to accomplish much of what they hope to derive from successful infringement litigation: collect monetary damages, stop the appropriation, insist on attribution of their work, and correct potential misattributions of a misappropriation. We evaluate the benefits and demerits of intellectual property self-help as compared with more traditional intellectual property enforcement.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Jose Anguiano [email protected] Mexican Blood, American Heart: Listening for Home, Gender and Affect in Chicana/O Smiths/Morrissey Fandom
    Jose Anguiano [email protected] Mexican Blood, American Heart: Listening for Home, Gender and Affect in Chicana/o Smiths/Morrissey fandom This Night Has Opened My Eyes On December 10th 2009 Morrissey was in concert in Los Angeles in support of his new release “Swords,” a compilation of previously unreleased B-sides. I ventured out there with two friends acting as research assistants, a video camera, an audio recorder, and a clip board full of research consent forms to see if any fans would talk with me about their Morrissey fandom. We arrived at 3:30pm to find approximately thirty people waiting in line for a show that started at 8:00pm. The low number of fans waiting in line reflected the fact that most fans had reserved seats except for small general admission “pit” at the front of the stage. All the fans in line had general admission tickets and arrived as early as they could to vie for a spot near the front of the stage. The fans appeared to be of various ethnic backgrounds, ages and styles of dress. I noticed that whites and Latinos made up most of the fans in line but I would later find much more diversity in ethnic backgrounds as I went around and talked with fans. Of interest to me right away was the one African-American woman in line, who would later refuse to even speak to us, the young Latino rockabilly kids in the middle of the pack and the group of white youth that were first in line.
