The result is that there are many people to thank, both here and in the chapter notes at the end of the book. First, the person other than me who worked the hardest, my wife, Anne. No project like this could be done without a strong partner. Anne was all that and more. Her constant support and understanding made this possible, and the price was significant, from all the Sundays taking care of the kids while I worked at Starbucks to the lost evenings, absent vacations, nights out not taken, and other costs of an all-consuming project.

  • PRESS KIT “Downright Stunning.” GLOBE & MAIL
    THE DARCYS PRESS KIT “Downright stunning.” GLOBE & MAIL “The Darcys haven’t missed a step, expertly arranging their lush, effects-laden soft-rock compositions.” NOW “An ear-catching collection of sweeping, multilayered songs.” NATIONAL POST “Lushly layered, lightly proggy arrangements.” CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND “With a mix of lightly distorted guitars, melodic, instantly catchy riffs, drum beats that propel songs forward to rewarding climaxes, and light keyboard touches that give tracks depth and substance, The Darcys are showing that they are here for the long haul.” BAEBLE “A serious contender to next year’s Polaris Prize, The Darcys is a superb achievement, both meditated and meditative.” HOUR “The Darcys is a monstrously tuneful prog-rock epic that improbably finds common ground between Radiohead and Steely Dan.” TORONTO STAR “An inspiring blend of polished pop and avant garde experimentation.” POP MATTERS “The odd details throughout The Darcys — a gospel choral breakdown, a barely detectable violin solo... lyrics that wink at self-awareness — surface like cream.” ONION A.V. CLUB THEDARCYS.CA MUSIC: CONCERT REVIEW The Darcys: A New and Momentous Beginning BRAD WHEELER At The Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto, on Friday There is the calm, there is the storm, and then there are the Darcys, young art-rock wonders who do both simultaneously. Their results are meaningful, momentous and absolutely enviable. In the beery dark showroom at the Horseshoe Tavern, in front of a bustling co-ed crowd, the Toronto quartet set impassioned melodic emotion against funnelling washes of electric feedback and gauzy textures. Crescendos figured; the drummer and bassist clearly had eaten their Wheaties or spinach.

  • SURFING for PUNKS: the INTERNET and the PUNK SUBCULTURE in NEW JERSEY by AARON ROBERT FURGASON a Dissertation Submitted To
    SURFING FOR PUNKS: THE INTERNET AND THE PUNK SUBCULTURE IN NEW JERSEY by AARON ROBERT FURGASON A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Communication, Information and Library Studies written under the direction of Professor Linda Steiner And approved by ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2008 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION SURFING FOR PUNKS: THE INTERNET AND THE PUNK SUBCULTURE IN NEW JERSEY BY AARON ROBERT FURGASON Dissertation Director Professor Linda Steiner This study examines the influence of the Internet on the punk subculture in New Jersey. Previous research by academics on the effect of the Internet on popular music has centered on the impact of Napster and peer-to-peer networks on the distribution of recordings (Alexander, 2002; Ayres & Williams, 2004; Bishop, 2004; Daniel & Klimis, 1999; Fox, 2004; Mardesich, 1999; & Oberholzer & Strumpf, 2004). However, unexamined is the influence of the Internet on a specific music subculture, punk. This is important because the subculture is occupied mainly by youth engaged with both the Internet and punk music. The Internet's influence on the punk subculture is a particularly important area of study because the Internet alters how participants in the subculture (punk fans, bands and independent labels) communicate with one another, as well as changes the distribution of punk artifacts and information. ii Central to this study is the history of the major labels' dominance over the distribution and promotion of punk music, a domination examined via critical political economy theory.
