  • Shannon Mcmahon
    Meeting Virginia: Feminist Analysis and Implications of Late- and Post-1990s Pop/Rock Music A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation with research distinction in English in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University By Shannon McMahon The Ohio State University June 2010 Project Advisor: Dr. Sara Crosby, Department of English McMahon 2 Introduction Music and feminism grew together throughout the 1990s as two forces of popular culture that helped to define and clarify the roles and representations of bold, bad, and individualistic women of the third wave. Feminism was undergoing a generational wave change, and the new third wave’s close interaction with popular culture led to accusations of disorder from second wave feminists and those outside the movement, as well. Third wavers began to use popular culture products, including music, as means to self-understanding, and they overturned dated notions of power in order to assert their own interpretations and use pop music in constructive ways. The ‘90s was also a locus of change for music and, in particular, third wavers’ roles in the industry. The Riot Grrrls of the early 1990s expressed their anger through the punk alternative, and the female singer/songwriters of the later Lilith Fair made feminist music more mainstream and individualized. Although feminist music had made many strides, mass media outlets and feminists alike pinpointed the era after Lilith Fair ended in 1999 as a new low point for feminist music: over-commercialized, over-exposed teen pop stars of the era had become popular, and their lyrics did not initiate constructive feminist discussions.

  • Alt-Nation: Belly Is Back, 123 Astronaut, and More
    Alt-Nation: Belly is Back, 123 Astronaut, and More Belly — Dove Set your wayback machine to the burgeoning alt-rock era, when in both the pre- and post-Nirvana periods, Aquidneck Island proved a very fertile talent pool. Throwing Muses was formed by Newport songwriters Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly in the ‘80s, and saw some success before Donelly left the band to form Belly in ’91. They made RI proud, and were given the full ’90s treatment: “Feed the Tree” from their debut Star on heavy MTV rotation, a nomination for the Best New Artist VMA in 1993, TV show appearances and a Rolling Stone cover. Belly broke up in 1996 after their second album, the less successful King, and Donelly settled into a solo career. Unlike many bands, Belly hasn’t had an overabundance of reunion shows. On Friday, Belly will release the album Dove, their first new music in 23 years. The album was a crowd- sourced effort, funded by donations via the band’s PledgeMusic page, and features the King lineup of Gail Greenwood on bass, Thomas Gorman on guitar and drummer Chris Gorman. Belly – Dove Dove is a carefully produced, purposefully catchy effort, unlike their edgier, more cerebral albums from the ’90s. Dove’s first single, “Shiny One,” is a groovy, Stone Roses-like tune, complete with bongos, and “Artifact” is a twangy number with pedal steel. This effort was a collaborative affair; What’s Up Newport recently reported that many of the songs were pieced together by band members sending snippets of songs to each other from across the country.
