  • THE WHISKEY DAREDEVILS …Ganz Offensichtlich Eine Der Letzten, Ernstzunehmenden Cowpunk Bands in Der Amerikanischen Rock’N’Roll Landschaft
    File under: Cow-Punk-Rock'n'Roll-Rodeo! THE WHISKEY DAREDEVILS …ganz offensichtlich eine der letzten, ernstzunehmenden Cowpunk Bands in der Amerikanischen Rock’n’Roll Landschaft. Gleichmaßen inspiriert von klassischen Country, Punk Rock und 60s Garage Rock’n’Roll zelebriert das Quartett aus Ohio ihren unverkennbaren Whiskey Daredevils Sound, der auf der Bühne zu einer explosiven Live-Show mit allerbesten Entertainment wird! Im September/October 2018 werden die Whiskey Daredevils einige Shows auf den Europäischen Kontinent spielen. Im Gepäck nicht nur einen neuen Gitarristen, sondern auch die speziell für die Tour aufgelegte, limitierte LP “The History of the Whiskey Daredevils Volume III”. Dieses edle Stück Vinyl enthält eine Auswahl von Songs der letzten sechs Alben und unveröffentlichtes Material. 2004 gegründet, aus der Asche der 2003 aufgelösten COWSLINGERS – eine der richtungsweisenden Garage-Trash-Rock Bands der USA – erlangten die Whiskey Daredevils schnell an Popularität und veröffentlichten sofort ihr Debut-Album unter dem Titel „Greatest Hits“. Die beiden original Cowslingers Greg Miller (Vocals) und Leo P. Love (Drums) fanden mit Gitarrist Gary Siperko (Rocket From The Tombs, Mofos) und Bassistin Sugar Wildman (Lords of the Highway) die ideale Besetzung für die Whiskey Daredevils. Anfang 2018 übernahm der fantastische Hector Matto den Platz an der Gitarre. “They do what they do best: they take the best of American roots music and create their very own sound”- Trashrock Mag “Drunken country musicians make punk. Or the other way around. That's how it should be and that's how this record works.”- Handwritten Magazine In den vergangenen Jahren teilte man gerne die Bühne mit solchen Bands wie Culture on the Skids, Dale Watson.

  • Daniel Amos and Me: the Power of Pop Culture and Autoethnography
    Daniel Amos and Me: The Power of Pop Culture and Autoethnography ANDREW F. HERRMANN Nearly everyone I know has a relationship with something in popular culture, whether it is Buffy the Vampire Slayer, amassing The Astonishing X-Men comics, or collecting every version of every Star Wars movie. Relationships and pop culture: couldn’t that make an autoethnography? This is a short version of my relationship with a band, Daniel Amos. I am not in Daniel Amos. I don’t know the members of the band (although I am Facebook friends with them now). I first heard them in 1982 serendipitously. Or maybe it was destiny. Either way, they opened my eyes to the wonders, doubts, and excesses of my life, critiqued my faith, and brought me joy. I feel like I know them, and they me. Thirty-one years after first hearing them, I realize our relationship is one of the longest I have had. We grew up and are growing older together. Popular Culture Autoethnography? Pop culture and autoethnography: two terms seemingly at odds with each other. On the one side stands popular culture studies, with its interrogations of music (Albiez), television shows (Stern), video gaming (Dunn & Guadagno), movie genres (Carroll), characters (Herrmann, “C-can”) – including individuals who become “characters” (Herbig 133) – and its examinations of power and discourses in popular texts, broadly defined (Stern, Manning & Dunn). On the other side sits autoethnography, the narrative first-person examination of the self, used as a jumping off point to interrogate cultural practices (Holman Jones, Adams & Ellis). One examines culture and identity from the outside in, the other from the inside out.

    In Praise of Cassandra Arno J. Mayer There is no understanding the infernal Israeli-Palestinian imbroglio and its world­ wide repercussions without exploring the dialectics of the vexed “Arab Question” in the unfolding and consummation of the Zionist project. For Martin Buber this ques­ tion concerned, in essence, "the relationship between Jewish settlement and Arab life, or, as it may be termed, the intra-national (intraterritorial?) basis of Jewish settlement.” From the outset in the 1890s, eminent Zionist voices in both the Diaspora and the Yishuv criticized the Zionist movement’s principal leaders for their benign but stub­ born neglect of this problem. Eventually Judah Magnes sadly concluded that the fail­ ure to make Arab-Jewish cooperation a major policy objective was Zionism’s fatal “sin of omission.” Rather than take the true measure of the majority Arab Palestinian population most Zionists of the first and early hours ignored, minimized, or distorted its reality and nature. Above all, with time they either denied the potential for an Arab awakening or dismissed Arab nationalism as an inconsequential European import. Martin Buber is emblematic of the crit­ ics—Ahad Haam, Yitzhak Epstein, Chaim Kalvarisky, Judah Magnes, Ernst Simon— who from the creation of modern Zionism insisted on the weight and urgency of the Arab Question, and on the importance of not only addressing the fears and anxieties of Arab Palestinians but also respecting their political aspirations. Buber became ever more convinced that the Arab Question would be

    Journal of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music doi:10.5429/2079-3871(2010)v1i1.9en Live Recollections: Uses of the Past in U.S. Concert Life Steve Waksman [email protected] Smith College Abstract As an institution, the concert has long been one of the central mechanisms through which a sense of musical history is constructed and conveyed to a contemporary listening audience. Examining concert programs and critical reviews, this paper will briefly survey U.S. concert life at three distinct moments: in the 1840s, when a conflict arose between virtuoso performance and an emerging classical canon; in the 1910s through 1930s, when early jazz concerts referenced the past to highlight the music’s progress over time; and in the late twentieth century, when rock festivals sought to reclaim a sense of liveness in an increasingly mediatized cultural landscape. keywords: concerts, canons, jazz, rock, virtuosity, history. 1 During the nineteenth century, a conflict arose regarding whether concert repertories should dwell more on the presentation of works from the past, or should concentrate on works of a more contemporary character. The notion that works of the past rather than the present should be the focus of concert life gained hold only gradually over the course of the nineteenth century; as it did, concerts in Europe and the U.S. assumed a more curatorial function, acting almost as a living museum of musical artifacts. While this emphasis on the musical past took hold most sharply in the sphere of “high” or classical music, it has become increasingly common in the popular sphere as well, although whether it fulfills the same function in each realm of musical life remains an open question.

    WEIRD RELIGIOUS BACKGROUNDS: LARRY NORMAN, JESUS ROCK, AND AN INTERVIEW WITH GREGORY ALAN THORNBURY Rupert Loydell Falmouth University Keywords: Christianity, Larry Norman, Jesus Rock, CCM, Religion 'Christian rock is a genre that exists to edify and make money off evangelical Christians. [...] A Christian band , on the other hand is just a band that has more than one Christian in it.' – John Jeremiah Sullivan (2012: 17-18) Although The Bloomsbury Handbook of Religion and Popular Music (Stewart and Abraham 2017) contains chapters such as Michael J. Gilmour's 'The Bible and Popular Music' (67-76) and Ibrahim Abraham and Francis Stewarts' 'Punk and Hardcore' (241- 250), there remains little informed academic consideration of the Christian music genre, especially punk and post-punk. John J. Thompson's Raised by Wolves (2000) and Mark Joseph's The Rock & Roll Rebellion (1999) offer insider histories, whilst Andrew Beaujon's Body Piercing Saved My Life (2006) is an hilarious, sceptical exploration of 'the phenomenon of Christian rock', focussed mostly on the early 2000s. Gilmour 's Call Me the Seeker: Listening to Religion in Popular Music (2005) is interested more in religious sources and themes; the nearest it gets to post-punk is Anna Kessler's consideration of Nick Cave (79-94) and J.R.C. Cousland's discussion of 'God, the Bad, and the Ugly' in the work of Nick Cave and Polly Harvey (129-157). Better, is Jay R Howard & John M. Streck's Apostle of Rock (1999), which takes a more sociological approach to what it calls 'The Splintered World of Contemporary Christian Music' and considers the tensions between ideas of ministry, entertainment, art and business for Christian musicians.
