  • Protest and Survive: a Brief History and Analysis of the Politics of Punk
    PROTEST AND SURVIVE: A BRIEF HISTORY AND ANALYSIS OF THE POLITICS OF PUNK A THESIS IN Musicology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF MUSIC by DILLON PATRICK HENRY B.F.A., Carnegie Mellon University, 2010 M.M., University of Michigan, 2014 Kansas City, Missouri 2018 © 2018 DILLON PATRICK HENRY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PROTEST AND SURVIVE: A BRIEF HISTORY AND ANALYSIS OF THE POLITICS OF PUNK Dillon Patrick Henry, Candidate for the Master of Music Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT Politics are an important aspect of most punk music, and many authors, avoiding concrete description, paint the genre with a nebulous left-ish brush. This, however, is insufficient at explaining how and why the genre has adapted to (as well as helped shape) geographically and culturally disparate communities across the globe over the last half- century. Moreover, most academic treatment of punk rock comes from a cultural and sociological perspective, lacking a theoretical and analytical discussion of the music itself. This document will synthesize the evolving genre’s musical and cultural entanglements with politics. To this end, the document will focus on landmark bands, albums, and locations around the world in a mostly chronological order with occasional overlap, documenting cultural development of the genre with supplemental musical analysis. With rigorous primary-source analysis of punk rock zines, this document will also recognize punk rock communities and transmission of ideas outside of the bands themselves. The elusive intertwining and occasionally paradoxical stances of the punk subculture are precisely why creating a single definition of punk rock is a difficult endeavor.

It won’t be long before the Foellinger Theatre and Pacific Coast Concerts announceM their summer concert series (and from what we’re hearing, 2016 was just the beginning). But even if the weather doesn’t cooperate, things are starting to heat up here in Fort Wayne, Indiana. For example, there’s some pretty smokin’ hot blues in the form of Anthony Gomes and his band coming to C2G Music Hall, one of the best small music venues you’re going to find anywhere. It should be a great show, and it’s our cover story, courtesy of Deborah Kennedy (see page 4).

  • The Members of Los Angeles Alternative Rock Band the Wrec
    No money to their names (minus what they earned from medical studies), the members of Los Angeles alternative rock band The Wrecks—Nick Anderson [vocals, guitar], Aaron Kelley [bass], Nick Schmidt [guitar, vocals], Westen Weiss [guitar, keys], and Billy Nally [drums]—received the invitation of a lifetime. As the story goes, Anderson’s friend was house-sitting for a professional music producer (who will remain unnamed to protect the not-so innocent). So, the boys had a three-day window to record in this space for free. Inspired by everything from The Pixies and The Strokes to Weezer and Vampire Weekend, they snuck in and out, cut a handful of tracks steeped in stories of wild nights and too much partying, put everything back as if nothing happened, and cleaned up all of the Dominos boxes, minus a crumb or two. On the last day, they narrowly missed the homeowner’s ex-wife (but still needed to send engineer Andrew D’Angelo back on a midnight “Black Op” to transfer the files). The recovered evidence err…contents….including the 2016 breakout single “Favorite Liar.” Not only did the track score over 14.7 million Spotify streams, but it also landed on coveted playlists such as It’s Alt Good, Digging Now, Feelgood Indie, Indie Radar, Punk Unleashed, and more as the group averaged 235K monthly listeners. Additionally, the music video cracked 1.5 million cumulative views, while “Favorite Liar” soared to #5 on Sirius/XM Alt Nation (not bad for a free recording!). Along the way, they made the jump from playing wild house parties that often ended with running from the cops to grimy clubs and finally headlining theaters between tours with the likes of Nothing But Thieves, The Hunna, Night Riots, and SWMRS.
