  • Exploring the Chinese Metal Scene in Contemporary Chinese Society (1996-2015)
    "THE SCREAMING SUCCESSOR": EXPLORING THE CHINESE METAL SCENE IN CONTEMPORARY CHINESE SOCIETY (1996-2015) Yu Zheng A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2016 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Esther Clinton Kristen Rudisill © 2016 Yu Zheng All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This research project explores the characteristics and the trajectory of metal development in China and examines how various factors have influenced the localization of this music scene. I examine three significant roles – musicians, audiences, and mediators, and focus on the interaction between the localized Chinese metal scene and metal globalization. This thesis project uses multiple methods, including textual analysis, observation, surveys, and in-depth interviews. In this thesis, I illustrate an image of the Chinese metal scene, present the characteristics and the development of metal musicians, fans, and mediators in China, discuss their contributions to scene’s construction, and analyze various internal and external factors that influence the localization of metal in China. After that, I argue that the development and the localization of the metal scene in China goes through three stages, the emerging stage (1988-1996), the underground stage (1997-2005), the indie stage (2006-present), with Chinese characteristics. And, this localized trajectory is influenced by the accessibility of metal resources, the rapid economic growth, urbanization, and the progress of modernization in China, and the overall development of cultural industry and international cultural communication. iv For Yisheng and our unborn baby! v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First of all, I would like to show my deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr.

  • One Day, One Spring Break Never Say Never Festival Reaches Sixth Consecutive Year by Elisa Garcia the Sun Was Shining March 12 A
    One day, one spring break Never Say Never Festival reaches sixth consecutive year By Elisa Garcia The sun was shining March 12 as nearly 5,000 people gathered to enjoy a day of non-stop music. DontGetEmo concerts hosted its sixth annual Never Say Never Festival (NSN) and welcomed a lineup of more than 35 bands to perform on four stages, such as Bring Me the Horizon, Asking ​ ​ ​ Alexandria and Of Mice & Men. ​ ​ NSN is a multi-stage festival held in Mission, Texas every March during spring break. The music festival brings together performances in rock and roll, hip-hop, indie, pop punk, electronica and other genres. Zar Castillo, co-creator of NSN along with George Culberson, explained that starting this one-day festival was not an easy process. Both put their own money together and began to build their vision piece by piece. “I remember having the first festival in 2009 and having $30 in my bank account,” the Mission native said. “Yet in the middle of the fest, doing this $100,000 project, I was like ‘I don’t know how we’re doing this, it’s going, it’s happening.’” While coming up with the idea of a one-day concert, Castillo said his vision received negativity from local businesses, people and friends. Castillo said he and Culberson had backlash such as, ‘It sounds like it’s not worth it,’ and ‘The market down here is never going to accept it.’ “After hearing all this negativity, that’s how the name Never Say Never came about,” the 29-year-old said.

  • Robin Hood As Much As Possible
    Issue 34 ∙ April-May 2010 . LeftLion Magazine Issue 34 contents April - May 2010 editorial Youths and ducks, If you’ve read any of the thirty-three previous issues of LeftLion, you’ll know that we’ve avoided covering the subject of Robin Hood as much as possible. There’s a good reason for that; because, like you, we’ve always known that there is far more to the Motherland than some bloke arsing about in Sherwood Forest, and we’d sooner give the less bigged-up avenues of Nottingham culture a shine. There are many reasons why we decided to cave in and roll out a massive tribute to the Hooded Man this ish. For one, it’s because of the resurgence of pride in our mythical lore. For two, it’s a reaction to the disgusting attempt by 9 16 28 the North to nick our local hero (hey, Yorkshire; we gave the world the greatest and most enduring goodies-versus- baddies story ever.

  • The Bands of Detroit
    IT’S FREE! TAKE ONE! DETROIT PUNK ROCK SCENE REPORT It seems that the arsenal of democracy has been raided, pillaged, and ultimately, neglected. A city once teeming with nearly two million residents has seemingly emptied to 720,000 in half a century’s time (the actual number is likely around 770,000 residing citizens, including those who aren’t registered), leaving numerous plots of land vacant and unused. Unfortunately, those areas are seldom filled with proactive squatters or off-the-grid residents; most are not even occupied at all. The majority of the east and northwest sides of the city are examples of this urban blight. Detroit has lost its base of income in its taxpaying residents, simultaneously retaining an anchor of burdensome (whether it’s voluntary or not) poverty-stricken, government-dependent citizens. Just across the Detroit city borders are the gated communities of xenophobic suburban families, who turn their collective noses at all that does not beckon to their will and their wallet. Somewhere, in the narrow cracks between these two aforementioned sets of undesirables, is the single best punk rock scene you’ve heard nary a tale of, the one that everyone in the U.S. and abroad tends to overlook. Despite receiving regular touring acts (Subhumans, Terror, Common Enemy, Star Fucking Hipsters, Entombed, GBH, the Adicts, Millions of Dead Cops, Mouth Sewn Shut, DRI, DOA, etc), Detroit doesn’t seem to get any recognition for homegrown punk rock, even though we were the ones who got the ball rolling in the late 60s. Some of the city’s naysayers are little more than punk rock Glenn Becks or Charlie Sheens, while others have had genuinely bad experiences; however, if the world is willing to listen to what we as Detroiters have to say with an unbiased ear, we are willing to speak, candidly and coherently.
