Rhino Reissues the Ramones' First Four Albums 2011-07-11 09:13 CEST Rhino Reissues The Ramones’ First Four Albums NOW I WANNA SNIFF SOME WAX Rhino Reissues The Ramones’ First Four Albums Both Versions Available July 19 Hey, ho, let’s go. Rhino celebrates the Ramones’ indelible musical legacy with reissues of the pioneering group’s first four albums on 180-gram vinyl. Ramones, Leave Home, Rocket To Russia and Road To Ruin look amazing and come in accurate reproductions of the original packaging. More importantly, the records sound magnificent and were made using lacquers cut from the original analog masters by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. For these releases, Rhino will – for the first time ever on vinyl – reissue the first pressing of Leave Home, which includes “Carbona Not Glue,” a track that was replaced with “Sheena Is A Punk Rocker” on all subsequent pressings. Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone. The original line-up – along with Marky Ramone who joined in 1978 – helped blaze a trail more than 30 years ago with this classic four-album run. It’s hard to overstate how influential the group’s signature sound – minimalist rock played at maximum volume – was at the time, and still is today. These four landmark albums – Ramones (1976), Leave Home (1977), Rocket To Russia (1977) and Road to Ruin (1978) – contain such unforgettable songs as: “Blitzkrieg Bop,” “Sheena Is Punk Rocker,” “Beat On The Brat,” “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue,” “Pinhead,” “Rockaway Beach” and “I Wanna Be Sedated.” RAMONES Side One Side Two 1. “Blitzkrieg Bop” 1. “Loudmouth” 2. “Beat On The Brat” 2. “Havana Affair” 3. “Judy Is A Punk” 3. “Listen To My Heart” 4. “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend” 4. “53rd & 3rd” 5. “Chain Saw” 5. “Let’s Dance” 6. “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue” 6. “I Don’t Wanna Walk Around With You” 7. “I Don’t Wanna Go Down To The Basement” 7. “Today Your Love, Tomorrow The World” LEAVE HOME Side One Side Two 1. “Glad To See You Go” 1. “Now I Wanna Be A Good Boy” 2. “Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment” 2. “Swallow My Pride” 3. “I Remember You” 3. “What’s Your Game” 4. “Oh Oh I Love Her So” 4. “California Sun” 5. “Carbona Not Glue” 5. “Commando” 6. “Suzy Is A Headbanger” 6. “You’re Gonna Kill That Girl” 7. “Pinhead” 7. “You Should Never Have Opened That Door” ROCKET TO RUSSIA Side One Side Two 1. “Cretin Hop” 1. “Teenage Lobotomy” 2. “Rockaway Beach” 2. “Do You Wanna Dance?” 3. “Here Today, Gone Tomorrow” 3. “I Wanna Be Well” 4. “Locket Love” 4. “I Can’t Give You Anything” 5. “I Don’t Care” 5. “Ramona” 6. “Sheena Is A Punk Rocker” 6. “Surfin’ Bird” 7. “We’re A Happy Family” 7. “Why Is It Always This Way?” ROAD TO RUIN Side One Side Two 1. “I Just Want To Have Something To Do” 1. “I Wanna Be Sedated” 2. “I Wanted Everything” 2. “Go Mental” 3. “Don’t Come Close” 3. “Questioningly” 4. “I Don’t Want You” 4. “She’s The One” 5. “Needles And Pins” 5. “Bad Brain” 6. “I’m Against It” 6. “It’s A Long Way Back” Warner Music International, a leading company in national and international repertoire operates through numerous international affiliates and licensees in more than 50 countries.

    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.

  • Az Archetipikus Csövigyerek-Banda: Ramones
    Koko Kommandó Az archetipikus csövigyerek-banda: Ramones Többé-kevésbé mindenkinek megvan az egy vagy több életre szóló esete. Az én LEG-eim között a legeslegesebb a RAMONES. Amikor 1976 végén az Újvidéki Rádióba megérkeztek az első punk lemezek (Sex Pistols, Patti Smith Group, The Clash, Dr. Feelgood, The Stranglers, Ramones), mindjárt lecsaptam rájuk - megéreztem, tudtam, hogy ez az, ami nekem kell, ez az én zeném. A Judy Is A Punk szédületes tempója egyből kiakasztott. Igen, „szerelem első pillantásra" volt, vagy operettmagyarul: szerelem első vérig. A Ramones számaival való találkozás alapélmény volt. Reménytelen, boldog szerelem, hiszen csak metafizikai viszonzásról beszélhettünk. Ez a zene soha nem hagyott cserben, soha nem volt hozzám hűtlen, soha nem okozott fájdalmat. A legnehezebb pillanatokon segített, lendített át. Szilárd pont az életemben. A nők jöttek-mentek, s mára az otthonomból és a munkahelyemről is elüldöztek. Azon az 1991-es novemberi napon, amikor még katonai engedély nélkül távozhattam a szerb birodalomból, a Ramones-kazetták ott lapultak a poggyászomban. Egy ilyen elfogult vallomás után illene valamit mondani a zenekarról, s nem utolsósorban a zenéről, amit játszanak _ hisz errefelé nem sok szó esett róluk. A legjelentősebb magyar rock- kritikusok ugyan számon tartják őket, de a tömérdek lapban s a rádiókban szinte semmit sem találni róluk. Egyszóval: siralmas állapot. Mintha depressziós lenne ez az ország zeneileg. We're A Happy Family A Ramones 1974-ben alakult. Kezdetben három queens-i fiú, John Cummings, Douglas Colman és Jeffry Hyman alkotta. Johnny és Dee Dee gitáron játszott, míg Joey dobolt. Thomas Erdélyi menedzserként szorgoskodott, de aztán átvette a dobokat Joey-tól, aki előrement énekesnek.

By Ariana Bowe Thesis Advisers: Professor Justin Patch May 2020 Bowe 2 Project Statement In my project, I will explore the New York City venue CBGB as one of the catalysts behind the rise of punk subculture in the 1970s. In a broader sense, I argue that punk is defined by a specific local space that facilitated a network of people (the subculture’s community), the concepts of DIY and bricolage, and zines. Within New York City, the locality of the punk subculture, ideas and materials were communicated via a DIY micro-medium called zines.

  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.
