  • “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.

    The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? - FIB | FIB 10/03/2016 11:06 The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? If you live long enough, you will probably see the fashion trends of your youth cycling back into popularity. Analysts are trying to get to the bottom of this mystery, by looking at the recurring trends throughout fashion history. The most cyclical movement in the history of the fashion industry is referred to as the “20-Year Rule.” This rule expresses the concept that something popular now will be popular again in 20 years, give or take a few years. Although new trends are always emerging, they are often modernisations or interpretations of the trends we have already seen. 90s Men’s Grunge Fashion, Photo Credit: swipelife.com/Michael Lavine According to Laver’s Law, when a trend is in fashion, it is ‘smart’; one year before this, it is ‘daring;’ and 20 years later, it becomes ‘ridiculous.’ 50 years, Laver said, was how long it took for a trend to begin to creep back into style. About Style have outlined the process of trend popularity, with fashion designers always on the look out for ‘what’s new’. First, the emerging trend is highly sought after, being found on red carpets and runways, as well as music videos and movies. Next comes the ‘emulation’ phase, where everyone jumps on board, with the trend https://fashionindustrybroadcast.com/2016/03/09/20-year-trend-cycle-next/ Page 1 of 4 The 20 Year Trend Cycle: What Is Next? - FIB | FIB 10/03/2016 11:06 being found in magazines and on TV.

I aim to create a set which features 7 rooms visable at The aim of this project is to produce designs for a live horror inspired theatre production. In order to do achieve this I will look at inspiration all times allowing the action of the play to shift quickly between from surrealist movement and the key trends from the 1920s, 1990s and modern day. I have chosen to research these eras as they allow me to scenes with minimal disruption. The location in focus will be demonstrate the clashing time frames in which the action takes place throughout the play. I feel that many of the themes within the surrealist indicated by harsh lighting whilst unused rooms are unlit leav- movement also lend themselves to the characteristics of each individual character bringing depth to their performances and drawing out the ing only shadowy figures moving subtly.

  • Do You Know Grunge?
    Do you know grunge? Debora Ferrara Design for the fashion system Politecnico di Milano x index what is grunge history of grunge generation X Kurt Cobain the king of fashion fashion trends xdo you know what are you wearing? rather be dead than cool rath be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rather be deadwhat thanis grunge? cool rather be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rather be dead than cool rath be dead than cool sound- garden nirvana alice in Grunge is a word that became synonymous with the Seattle sound. 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.

  • Chapter 5 Design and Realization
    CHAPTER 5 DESIGN AND REALIZATION 5.1 Visual Research The author conducted a visual research to search and look for inspiration visually. It consists of the mind map of the concept that the author wanted to pursue in the collection, and the inspired images that was found through primary researches and secondary researches. The visuals from the primary researches are from the thrift stores that the author went to in order to see the silhouettes, while secondary researches are from the Internet such as WGSN, fashion blogs, and websites. From the researches, the author then will analyze in order to inject the inspirations to the collection. 5.1.1 Mind Mapping In order to create a collection, the author made a mind map to develop the inspirations and concept. The mind map that the author made was varied because of the progression of the diverse cultures that the author wanted to inject in the first collection, and developing the final chosen concept along the way. 93 Figure 5.1 Mind Map on Grunge Culture Source: Author’s Image Grunge Culture inspired the author for the collection. However, since Grunge Culture is broad culture to be develop as a collection, the author did the research on Grunge music, where it is a medium to self-express and speak out about their lives. The music supports how men can be fragile, and how women can be aggressive. However, the author would like to focus more on the effect of Grunge music towards the female society where it talks about the revolution of female musicians to advocate feminism.

Jadranka Zlomislić Osijek, 2014. Korać 2 Abstract This paper explores grunge, a music genre that developed in Seattle, Washington during the 1990s. The aim is to show how grunge contributed to changes primarily in the American society as it moved from underground to mainstream and became a primary pop cultural movement in the 90s. It also became a subculture which has its special characteristics like a certain way of dressing, behaving etc. The paper follows the evolution of grunge from its beginning in the 1980s. Thanks to Sub Pop, an independent record label, and its creators Jonathan Poneman and Bruce Pavitt and their sense for business and self-promotion, grunge moved from underground to mainstream at the beginning of the 1990s with Nirvana’s album Nevermind as a landmark and their single “Smells like Teen Spirit” as the anthem of the Generation X. Furthermore, the paper explores how musicians engaged in different aspects of society like politics, campaigning and activism and how grunge became an essential part of fashion statements and different forms of art such as movies.
