Untitled Document Page 1 of 1 Amen – self-titled (expanded) - added - September 11th, 2007 Reviewer: Ruben Mosqueda 5/5 Amen came around at a time when Roadrunner Records began to shed their death and thrash metal image. Those two subgenres were what built the Roadrunner house, and it was shocking that they started to move away from their bread and butter. Unlike Slipknot, Amen was the real deal. Amen was punk rock, and not the pre-packaged sterile shit you buy at a mall. Casey Chaos was full of piss and vinegar. On Amen you get him at his best. Everything came together nicely on Amen. The production is raw and abrasive as it should be. The only knocks that these guys had against them at the time was that they had Ross Robinson produce them, who was also responsible for introducing Korn to us (gee, thanks), and the fact that they had novelty band Ugly Kid Joe’s drummer Shannon Larkin, who proved on this album that he could play hard. Mayo's and Fig’s riffs are unbelievable. I never thought punk in 1999 could be this against the grain, given the soft (i.e. Green Day and Blink 182) direction that so called punk was heading. The standout tracks on Amen are “Drive,” “Down Human,” and what went on to become their signature track, “Coma America.” How about the artwork? That was scandalous. Amen should have been huge, and the people at Metal Mind seem to agree as they have issued an expanded, gold pressed, limited edition of this criminally underrated debut album. In its expanded form, you’ll also get the Coma America EP: “Whores of Hollywood,” “Lovers Are Killers,” “Life Crime,” and “Black God.” Click HERE for Past Reviews http://webzine.pivotalalliance.com/feat_reviews.php?subaction=showfull&id=1189484013... 9/20/2007.

Subjectivity in American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, the Body, the Grotesque, and the Child
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Glasgow Theses Service Subjectivity In American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, The Body, The Grotesque, and The Child. Sara Ann Thomas MA (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts University of Glasgow January 2009 © Sara Thomas 2009 Abstract This thesis examines the subject in Popular American Metal music and culture during the period 1994-2004, concentrating on key artists of the period: Korn, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Tura Satana and My Ruin. Starting from the premise that the subject is consistently portrayed as being at a time of crisis, the thesis draws on textual analysis as an under appreciated approach to popular music, supplemented by theories of stardom in order to examine subjectivity. The study is situated in the context of the growing area of the contemporary gothic, and produces a model of subjectivity specific to this period: the contemporary gothic subject. This model is then used throughout to explore recurrent themes and richly symbolic elements of the music and culture: the body, pain and violence, the grotesque and the monstrous, and the figure of the child, representing a usage of the contemporary gothic that has not previously been attempted. Attention is also paid throughout to the specific late capitalist American cultural context in which the work of these artists is situated, and gives attention to the contradictions inherent in a musical form which is couched in commodity culture but which is highly invested in notions of the ‘Alternative’. In the first chapter I propose the model of the contemporary gothic subject for application to the work of Popular Metal artists of the period, drawing on established theories of the contemporary gothic and Michel Foucault’s theory of confession.

Heathen Harvest Samhainwork I
HEATHEN HARVEST SAMHAINWORK I The event is here. The time is now. Ever since our inception, Heathen Harvest has concentrated fully and wholeheartedly on delivering thoughtful views and exposure to the post-industrial underground. But part of our responsibility also rests in passing the very best music to our readership. Now, for the first time ever, we are proud to deliver an album of entirely original creations, showcasing some of the finest artists that we work with. Samhain is the end of the land cycle of birth and growth, the culmination of light and life. A time of open reflection as we look back to our past and give honour to our lineage, but also a period for dreaming of our futures and what we want to truly make of ourselves. It is a time of strongest, palpable spiritual concentration. We hope you enjoy taking the time to experience the eighty minutes of this record: a companion for this turn of the Wheel, and a carefully plotted aural expedition to take you through and beyond the open gates of the Dark Half.

Publication Anger Burning Editorial It’S Been a While Since the Last Issue
PUBLICATION ANGER BURNING EDITORIAL IT’S BEEN A WHILE SINCE THE LAST ISSUE. IT TAKES TIME. TIME TO GATHER MOTIVATION TO START UP A NEW SET OF QUESTIONNAIRES. TIME FOR THEM TO BE ANSWERED. TIME FOR THEM TO BE FORMATTED INTO A DOCUMENT TO BE CREATED AS A PDF. TIME TO TAKE ALL THAT CONTENT AND REPURPOSE IT FOR THE WEBSITE FOR SHARING. YEAH – NOT EASY AT ALL, BUT MADE ALL THE MORE ENJOYABLE WHEN YOU GET THOSE RESPONSES BACK! I’VE ALSO HAD TIME TO THINK ABOUT THE FORMATTING AND TAKEN THE DECISION THAT WHILE A MONOSPACED TYPEWRITER FONT IS COOL FOR A SHORT PIECE OF TEXT (LIKE THIS!), IT CAN BE WEARING ON THE EYES WHEN USED IN THE MAJORITY OF THE MAGAZINE. SO – I’VE TAKEN THE DECISION TO MAKE THE ARTICLES MUCH MORE READABLE BY USING A NORMAL FONT, AS WELL AS REVERTING TO A PLAIN WHITE BACKGROUND, RATHER THAN THAT PSEUDO-PHOTOCOPIED THING I HAD GOING ON. THIS ISSUE IS THE MUCH-PROMISED METAL SPECIAL AND AFTER A HIATUS OF WORKING ON ISSUE 5 OF THE ZINE, LEAVING STONEY TO DO THE VAST MAJORITY OF WRITTEN WORD WORK, IT’S GREAT TO FINALLY SEE THIS COME TO FRUITION. THERE IS A FAIR BIAS ON ONE PERSON AND HER BANDS IN THIS ISSUE. KAT GILLHAM HAS A FAIR FEW ON THE GO AND THE MAJORITY CAN ALL BE CLASSED AS METAL IN ONE SUB-GENRE OR ANOTHER. IT’S TOTAL PROOF THAT NORTHEN ENGLAND METAL IS VERY MUCH ALIVE AND KICKING. FOR THOSE OF YOU LUCKY TO GET A HOLD OF ONE OF THE FIRST RUN OF ISSUES, YOU’LL ALSO HAVE A CD OF ONE OF THE BANDS INTERVIEWED HERE.
