THE MERCILESS BOOK of METAL LISTS: New Quote Snippets from Kerry King and Philip Anselmo Released! For Immediate Release February 27, 2013 THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS: New Quote Snippets from Kerry King and Philip Anselmo Released! Hitting Stores April 9, 2013 -- Written by NYC Music Scene Veterans Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins Featuring Exclusive Photography by Iconic East Coast Photographer Frank White “The Merciless Book Of Metal Lists, compiled by Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins, is the ultimate look at the world of heavy metal via the ease and convenience of a list. No stone is left unturned here, and I mean no stone. If you think you have a list about metal that isn’t in this book, chances are you’re wrong. Both Jenkins and Abrams have exhaustively researched and brainstormed Merciless and delivered a look at their beloved genre that is informative and fun.” – Iann Robinson, CraveOnline.com THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS, written by NYC music scene veterans Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins, is set to be released on April 9, 2013. Touted as being “the most opinionated compendium ever written concerning Heavy Metal”, THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS is comprised of 208 jam-packed pages representing all that is glorious across the world of Heavy Metal. The book features dozens of never-before-seen photographs from iconic East Coast photographer Frank White. The foreword for THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS comes from one of the most respected names in the genre,Slayer guitarist extraordinaire Kerry King, with a candid and passionate afterword from Pantera/Down frontman Philip Anselmo. "This book will appeal to metalheads because it's what they love. They'll get to laugh at the industry and at themselves. Any information is good information, and metal kids want it." - Kerry King (Slayer) "I am an unabashed heavy metal fan, and I know as well as anyone, that metal fans can be an extremely loyal lot. But we are a very critical lot too. With each new movement, a new, defiant, outspoken, and sovereign audience is born. Music is older than all of us, so its history is ours to writhe in and absorb." - Philip Anselmo (Pantera/Down) There are numerous other contributions from key metal luminaries and industry personnel like: Scott Ian (Anthrax) Gary Holt (Exodus) Max Cavalera (Sepultura/Soulfly) Katon W. DePena (Hirax) John Gallagher (Raven) Danny Lilker (Nuclear Assault/SOD) Eddie Trunk (That Metal Show) Jon & Marsha Zazula (Megaforce Records) Brian Slagel (Metal Blade Records) Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica Producer) ILL BILL (Heavy Metal Kings/La Coka Nostra) MC Serch (3rd Bass) Richard Christy (Charred Walls of the Damned/The Howard Stern Show) Monte Conner (Roadrunner Records/Nuclear Blast Records) Borivoj Krgin (Blabbermouth.net) Shaun Glass (Soil/Dirge Within) Betsy Weiss (Bitch) Presented in the form of dozens of factual, random and often outrageous lists, THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS dares to call many out for being the worst instead of being the best. It points out the triumphs, as well as the miserable failures concerning metal, from a diehard fan's point-of-view. TMBML leaves no stone unturned, often blurring the lines separating fact and hilarity. You want to know about album covers that feature goats on them? What Motorhead icon Lemmy's warts might tell you if they could speak? The achievements Iron Maiden would never have reached had their original vocalist Paul Dianno remained in the band? Well then, this book is for you. To pre-order THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS, please visit Amazon.com. You can learn more about the book at the official Facebook page or Abrams Books.

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Roadrunner Records
    WHO'S WHO AT ROADRUNNER RECORDS After 17 years with Phonogram Int'l. in international A&R, Gees Wessels joined RCA as Managing Director of the Dutch com- pany. In 1981 Gees left to establish Roadrunner Records in Amsterdam. The label began by specializing in UK-Punk Music and then heavy metal. One of the company's first signings was a group called Merciful Fate, which later became King Diamond. Gradually, through licensing UK heavy metal product, Roadrunner became one of the premiere distributors of that type of music throughout Europe. In 1986 the company opened offices in the U.S. and a year later in the U.K.. They are currently in the process of opening an office in Cologne, W.Germany as we go to print. In the U.S., Roadrunner has established four different labels: ROADRACER - specilizing in Metal and distributed through MCA, the company is presently 'New On The Charts' with the King Diamond LP "Them". EMERGO - a Progressive Rock label distributed by MCA. HAWKER - Hard Core Rock independently distributed. RC RECORDS - Heavy Metal independently distributed. ROADRUNNER RECORDS - U.S. Staff: DOUGLAS KEOGH - General Manager Douglas began work in the music business at jazz-R&B station WYBC-FM as DJ and Music Director. After promoting :^jjHj^ jazz concerts in New Haven, he moved to New York in 1979 to work as a booking agent with Rasa Artists. He then co- founded Outward Visions, a booking-management service company for new music in the jazz tradition. After design- W^ -i ing and administering a music education program for incarcerated youth in NYC and organizing free neighborhood concerts as part of the outreach program he accepted his first record company position at Europa Records as General Manager.

Contact: [email protected] Choutouts: Language contact and US-Latin hip hop on YouTube Matt Garley This paper presents a corpus-sociolinguistic analysis of lyrics and com- ments from videos for four US-Latinx hip hop songs on YouTube. A ‘post-varieties’ (Seargeant and Tagg 2011) analysis of the diversity and hybridity of linguistic production in the YouTube comments finds the notions of codemeshing and plurilingualism (Canagarajah 2009) useful in characterizing the language practices of the Chicanx community of the Southwestern US, while a focus on the linguistic practices of com- menters on Northeastern ‘core’ artists’ tracks validate the use of named language varieties in examining language attitudes and ideologies as they emerge in commenters’ discussions. Finally, this article advances the sociolinguistics of orthography (Sebba 2007) by examining the social meanings of a vast array of creative and novel orthographic forms, which often blur the supposed lines between language varieties. Keywords: Latinx, hip hop, orthography, codemeshing, language contact, language attitudes, language ideologies, computer-mediated discourse.

  • Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal *
    Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal * Stephen S. Hudson NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hps://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.21.27.1/mto.21.27.1.hudson.php KEYWORDS: Heavy Metal, Formenlehre, Form Perception, Embodied Cognition, Corpus Study, Musical Meaning, Genre ABSTRACT: This article presents a new framework for analyzing compound AABA form in heavy metal music, inspired by normative theories of form in the Formenlehre tradition. A corpus study shows that a particular riff-based version of compound AABA, with a specific style of buildup intro (Aas 2015) and other characteristic features, is normative in mainstream styles of the metal genre. Within this norm, individual artists have their own strategies (Meyer 1989) for manifesting compound AABA form. These strategies afford stylistic distinctions between bands, so that differences in form can be said to signify aesthetic posing or social positioning—a different kind of signification than the programmatic or semantic communication that has been the focus of most existing music theory research in areas like topic theory or musical semiotics. This article concludes with an exploration of how these different formal strategies embody different qualities of physical movement or feelings of motion, arguing that in making stylistic distinctions and identifying with a particular subgenre or style, we imagine that these distinct ways of moving correlate with (sub)genre rhetoric and the physical stances of imagined communities of fans (Anderson 1983, Hill 2016).

  • Why the Hell Am I Doing This?
    The Origin of the Toilet Paper: How Soul on Fire Came To Be In January of 2013, I spent an hour on the phone with Darcie Rowan, Peter’s niece. The most memorable portion of this call was her words telling me, "Peter was clean and sober when he died, and he didn't die of a heart attack. We want your book to set the record straight." To say my heart quickened was an understatement. What had happened to Peter Steele? Darcie and I confirmed my trip to NY and NJ to meet with Peter Steele’s surviving sisters on Feb.9th. It was to be a day full of questions, laughter, tears and some great Italian food! While I was to be in the area, I would also meet with Monte Conner and Mark Abramson of Roadrunner Records. It is exciting and bittersweet all at once. At this point, I was merely dipping my toe into the Green Man’s life but I could already sense a presence of sorts. Maybe it was just imaginary, or maybe this is what happens when you become someone’s biographer. For the next 2 years, I would be eating, sleeping and drinking green and black. Back in NY and NJ everyone is gathering together their memorabilia and best memories of Peter. Back in NC I am busy organizing the book in my head, and preparing interview questions. Why the hell am I doing this? First, because I have been a fan of Peter’s special, singular creative vision since that great first Carnivore album was released in 1986.

Let's take a trip down memory lane: 12/1/93 - Singer: Ray Gillian dies from Aids related complications. While he never appeared on record with Black Sabbath he was briefly a member of Black Sabbath's touring band when he briefly replaced legendary Singer: Glenn Hughes in the band. Following his gig with Sabbath Gillen briefly worked w/Ex Thin Lizzy/Whitesnake Guitarist: John Sykes in Blue Murder but eventually Gillen left Blue Murder and formed BadLands w/Ex Ozzy Osbourne/Ratt Guitarist: Jake E. Lee. Badlands released two albums before Gillen decided to leave because of friction that developed between Lee and Gillen. After Ray Gillen's death BADLANDS released a 3rd and final album called DUSK which was an album's worth of material of unreleased studio outakes.

    news #34 MUNGOLIAN JETSET - MUNGODELICS Hot on the heels of 2011`s "Schlungs", the Jetsetters have kept those buttons busily pushed, and are already here with their next chapter installment, featuring 8 new nuggets entitled "Mungodelics". The album is essentially a psychodramatic sequel to the highly acclaimed "We Gave It All Away, Now We Are Taking It Back" album of 2009, as it is musically a blend of originals and remakes made into originals, as well as solo performances and external collaborations from the band`s musical core members, Knut Saevik and Paul "Strangefruit" Nyhus. All in all, "Mungodelics" musically summons everything that is hazy, dazy, underearthly and crazy. This is the Mungolian Jetset taking you on a ride through the seasons, and shifts of the days and nights, from the Cantina to the Ewok forest, via ritualistic dancing at Kilmin Taboour and stellar swimming in the galactic Goa.
