LANZAMIENTO 15/9/2014 Side One GET YOUNG EARLY BRIGHT YOU HAVE A BELL BE ALL END ALL PRODUCTION SEDAN OWNER/OPERATOR Side Two HOW IN HEAVEN’S NAME GRATITUDE DANCE WITH A DRINK IN YOUR HAND GOOD SPORT ANYTHING NICE WAITING FOR THE SNOW THE TRIPWIRES son un combo all-star que llega desde Seattle enarbolando la bandera del power-pop. Formados en 2006, y tras dos estupendos discos ("Makes You Look Around" y "House To House"), The Tripwires presentan ahora su tercer álbum bajo el título de GET YOUNG. Los componentes de THE TRIPWIRES son parte de la aristocracia musical de Seattle, veteranos supervivientes de la gran explosión sónica de su ciudad en los años 90s, que se mantienen saludablemente en activo haciendo la música que quieren. Grandísimos músicos que son o han sido parte fundamental de bandas de tanta calidad como YOUNG FRESH FELLOWS (Jim Sangster), MUDHONEY (Dan Peters), MODEL ROCKETS y THE MINUS 5 (John Ramberg), la banda original de NEKO CASE o MAGGIE BJÖRKLUND (Johnny Sangster), y muchas otras (y si es cuestión de dejar caer nombres ¡el batería Dan Peters tocó y grabó con los mismísimos NIRVANA!) Las principales señas de identidad de THE TRIPWIRES, muy patentes en “Get Young”, son la extraordinaria capacidad de John Ramberg para escribir inusuales pero pegadizas melodías (algo que ya hizo fantásticamente al frente de los Model Rockets), el talento de Johnny Sangster como guitarrista, arreglista y productor, y la delicada orfebrería vocal de sus canciones. Con influencias de bandas de los sesenta y los setenta (como The Zombies, The Hollies, Big Star, Brinsley Schwarz...), y el mejor power-pop nuevaolero (The Beat, The Knack, Squeeze), el rock&roll y el pop se dan la mano en “Get Young”.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • DKT/MC5 Sonic Revolution
    Listen mister, back in my day, blotter was 25 cents a hit and we had to walk two miles uphill to get it! And we liked it! Wayne Kramer is not someone who normally seems into beaming—his image is a little more ferocious than that. But onstage during the second night of the DKT-MC5 tour in Chicago, Kramer busted loose a big fat grin and started jumping up and down at one point. Back in the MC5 days, the band was known for its energetic, physical shows. Having never seen them live, I don't know if they ever jumped for pure joy back then, but that's clearly what Kramer was doing that night. The reunion of the surviving members of the MC5 (guitarist Kramer, bassist Michael Davis and drummer Dennis Thompson)—along with resurrections of the Stooges and the New York Dolls—is showing a renewed interest in these progenitors of punk rock. "It's surprising to me and it should be surprising to Iggy and those guys how much influence and affect our two bands have had on music now," Davis said. "I'm kind of in awe of it. We've had this kind of effect. And it's one thing to do something that people DKT/MC5 admire a lot, and go, 'That was really cool Sonic Revolution: Live At London's 100 stuff,' but to have this much influence is really Club [DVD] surprising to me." 2004 Image He continued: "I thought it was great, but I The DKT/MC5 gig at London's 100 Club never thought it was so foundational to the was the first salvo in what has become a future.

  • Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl, and Kurt Cobain
    f Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl, and Kurt Cobain (from top) N irvana By David Fricke The Seattle band led and defined the early-nineties alternative-rock uprising, unleashing a generation s pent-up energy and changing the sound and future of rock. THIS IS WHAT NIRVANA SINGER-GUITARIST KURT Cobain thought of institutional honors in rock & roll: When his band was photographed for the cover of Rolling Stone for the first time, in early 1992, he arrived wearing a white T-shirt on which he’d written, c o r p o r a t e m a g a z i n e s s t i l l s u c k in black marker. The slogan was his twist on one coined by the punk-rock label SST: “Corporate Rock Still Sucks.” The hastily arranged photo session, held by the side of a road during a manic tour of Australia, was later recalled by photogra­ pher Mark Seliger: “I said to Kurt, T think that’s a great shirt... but let’s shoot a couple with and without it.’ Kurt said, ‘No, I’m not going to take my shirt off.’” Rolling Stone ran his Fuck You un-retouched. ^ Cobain was also mocking his own success. At that moment, Nirvana - Cobain, bassist Krist Novoselic, and drummer Dave Grohl - was rock’s biggest new rock band, propelled out of a long-simmering postpunk scene in Seattle by its incendiary second album, N everm ind, and an improbable Top Ten single, “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” Right after New Year’s Day 1992, Nevermind - Nirvana’s first major-label release and a perfect monster of feral-punk challenge and classic-rock magne­ tism, issued to underground ecstacy just months before - had shoved Michael Jackson’s D angerous out of the Number One spot in B illboard.

How did a five-letter word meaning dirt, filth, trash become synonymous with a musical genre, a fashion statement, a pop phenomenon? . In 1988, a fledgling Seattle record label called Sub Pop released a three-boxed set called "Sub Pop 200." It was a compilation of bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden and Mudhoney, and it came complete with a 20-page booklet packed with pictures by Charles Peterson, the photographer credited with creating grunge's hair-sweat-and-guitars look. Sub Pop also sent a catalogue to the nation's alternative-rock intelligentsia describing its bands' punk-metal guitar noise as "grunge," the first documented use of the now-ubiquitous term. "It could have been sludge, grime, crud, any word like that," said Jonathan Poneman, a Sub Pop founder. Grunge stuck, maybe because it so vividly evoked both the black-noise sound and the smelly- caveman look. Ratty rec-room chic has been hibernating since the 70's, emerging from the basement every so often in movies like "River's Edge," "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" and "Wayne's World." This generation of greasy Caucasian youths in ripped jeans, untucked flannel and stomping boots spent their formative years watching television…, listening to old Black Sabbath albums and dreaming of the day they would trade in their air guitars for the real thing, so that they, too, could become famous rock-and-roll heroes.

  • The Legendary Stooges Axeman, 1948-2009: He Didn't Just Play the Guitar
    The legendary Stooges axeman, 1948-2009: he didn't just play the guitar. BY TIM "NAPALM" STEGALL The first thing you noticed, after seeing the perfect picture of teenage delinquency in quartet form on the cover (and how much the band depicted resembles a prehistoric Ramones, if you're of a certain age), was the sound: Corrosive, brittle, brassy, seemingly untamed. It was the sound of an electric guitar being punished more than played. And the noise got particularly nasty once Mr. Guitar Flogger stepped on his wah-wah pedal. Because unlike whenever Jimi Hendrix stepped on a wah, this guitar didn't talk. It snarled and spat and attacked like a cobra. As the six string engine that drove The Stooges, Ron Asheton didn't play guitar. He played the amp. And the fuzztone. And the wah-wah pedal. In the process, he didn't just give singer Iggy Pop a sonic playground in which he could run riot and push the boundaries of then-acceptable rock stagecraft. ("Ron provided the ammo," says Rolling Stone Senior Writer David Fricke. "Iggy pulled the trigger.") Ron Asheton also changed the way rock 'n' roll was played and energized a few generations to pick up guitars themselves, creating several subgenres in the process. Ron Asheton was found dead in the wee hours of January 6, 2009, in the Ann Arbor home he and brother Scott (The Stooges' drummer) and sister Kathy (muse to a few late Sixties Detroit rockers and lyrical inspiration for The Stooges' classic "TV Eye") grew up in after the family relocated from the guitarist's native Washington, DC.

It’s a word that was used to describe a number chains of different “alternative” bands from the region in 1980s, and then also into the 1990s with bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Mudhoney and Screaming Trees. The first noted instance of referring to a Seattle band as “grunge,” was in a 1981 letter by Mark Arm, according to Clark Humphrey in his account of the Seattle music scene, Loser. pearl jam Bruce Pavitt later claimed to have popularized the term as a musical label in 1987, when he wrote some promotional copy for Green River, describing the band as “ultra-loose grunge that destroyed the morals of a generation”. In the late 80s, “grunge” did actually define a sound – high levels of distortion, feedback, fuzz effects, a fusion of punk and metal influences. Many of these bands were on either the C/Z or Sub Pop record labels. Jack Endino, the so-called “Godfather of Grunge” recorded Soundgarden, Mudhoney, Green River, Nirvana and Blood Circus between 1984 and 1989.

  • Avery County, I'm Bound to You Release Date: October 15Th, 2013 Label: Skybucket Records
    Barton Carroll - Avery County, I’m Bound To You Dear friends, The world of !ction is a wonderful place. And on my previous albums I de!nitely prescribed to the notion that !ction is the only place where you can tell the truth: what Werner Herzog calls “The ecstatic truth.” The truth of narrative, rather than the lifeless quality of facts and data. So far it has made me feel a lot more free at the writing table (not to mention with questions like, “So who was that song about?”). But my method changed with this record. And while I would still insist that the stories and details are too nebulous to be literal, the title of the album is Avery County, I’m Bound To You. And I did indeed grow up in Avery County, North Carolina. And I do indeed feel bound to that place. Perhaps I’m going through a mid-life crisis. Actually, I’m sure of it. It’s so damned scary when you get your !rst glimpse of the end of the road that you tend to look back hard at the journey so far. As much as I’ve resisted writing autobi- ographically on my previous work, I just couldn’t get around it on this album. I didn’t even try. So these songs are re"ections of an upbringing in the Appalachian Mountains seen through the lens of several years of city life on the West Coast. Like when Tom Waits sings, “I never saw the East Coast until I moved to the West.” My musical memories always echo with Doc Watson, Ralph Stanley and other Old Time voices.
