    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.

  • Heavy Metal and Globalization
    http://dx.doi.org/10.25038/am.v0i17.276 Hanan Hadžajlić Faculty of Media and Communications, Singidunum University, Belgrade, Serbia Heavy Metal and Globalization Abstract: Heavy Metal is a specific, alternative music genre that exists on the fringe of popular music, where it is classified by its own culture: musical style, fashion, philosophy, symbolic language and political activism. For over five decades of the existence of heavy metal, its fans have developed various communication systems through different types of transnational net- works, which significantly influenced the development of all aspects of metal culture, which relates both to divisions within the genre itself and to various philosophical and political as- pects of heavy metal activism – of a global heavy metal society. Going through the processes of globalization, and so glocalization, heavy metal is today a significant part of popular culture in North and South America, Europe, Asia, Australia; while in some societies it represents the cultural practice of a long tradition with elements of cultural tourism, in some countries where conservative, religious policies are dominant, it represents subversive practices and encounters extreme criticism as well as penalties. Globalization in the context of the musical material itself is based on the movement from idiomatic, cultural and intercultural music patterns to trans- cultural – where heavy metal confronts the notion of one’s own genre. Post-metal, the defini- tion of a genre that goes beyond the aesthetic concepts of

    La recepción borgiana de At the Gates: refiguraciones, intertextualidades y heavy metal At the Gates of the Borgian Reception: Refigurations, Intertextualities and Heavy Metal IRAM ISAÍ EVANGELISTA ÁVILA Universidad Autónoma de Chihuahua, México evangelistagh[at]gmail.com Impossibilia. Revista Internacional de Estudios Literarios. ISSN 2174-2464. No. 21 (mayo 2021). Monográfico. Páginas 237-261. Artículo recibido 30 octubre 2020, aceptado 26 abril 2021, publicado 30 mayo 2021. RESUMEN: El siguiente artículo versa sobre la recepción que los músicos suecos At the Gates elaboran de los cuentos del escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges. Su influencia se encuentra en algunas de las letras de las canciones del álbum At War with Reality (2014a). At the Gates presenta una refiguración (Ricœur, 2009) de la narrativa borgiana y crea redescripciones de las tramas y escenarios de los relatos. Además, en las letras de las canciones se encuentran intertextualidades (Zavala, 2017) que relacionan la propuesta artística de los músicos nórdicos con la narrativa del latinoamericano. Se evidencia que la propuesta de At the Gates contra una realidad impuesta es semejante al quiebre de la realidad presente en la trama del cuento borgiano. PALABRAS CLAVE: refiguración, intertextualidad, semejanzas, letras de canción, narrativa, At the Gates, Jorge Luis Borges ABSTRACT: The following paper discusses the reception of Jorge Luis Borges Short- stories by the Swedish band At the Gates. The influence of the South-American author is made evident in some of the lyrics in the At War with Reality (2014a) album. At the Gates presents a refiguration (Ricœur, 2009) of the borgesian narrative and creates redescriptions of the plots and the setting.
