  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    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.

  • Stairway to Heavy
    # 2004/08 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2004/08/stairway-heavy Stairway to Heavy Von jens thomas Probot und Transformer Di Roboter beweisen, dass Heavy Metal auch heute noch bestens funktionieren kann. von jens thomas Kurt Cobain ist tot. Seinem ehemaligen Umfeld dagegen geht es ziemlich gut. Dave Grohl zum Beispiel, Nirvanas Ex-Drummer und heutiger Sänger der Foo Fighters, wirkt fröhlich, grinst ständig und freut sich wie ein junger Bub. Der wahrscheinliche Grund dafür: Er hat gerade eine Metal-Platte mit seinem neuen Band-Projekt veröffentlicht. Probot heißt das rockende Geschöpf und ist eine Hommage an die Metal-Kultur an sich. Auf der Platte hat Grohl alle Stücke selbst eingespielt und nicht wenige Koryphäen des richtig harten bis brutalen Metal brüllen dazu. Mit dabei sind: Lemmy (Motörhead), Max Cavalera (Sepultura, Soulfly), King Diamond (Mercyful Fate) und viele andere. Dave Grohl meint es wirklich ernst mit seinem Projekt. Er zelebriert auf seiner Scheibe eine Vorliebe für Heavy Metal, ohne dass ihm daran irgendetwas peinlich ist. »Als Drummer habe ich von den Platten dieser Typen gelernt. Das ist ein großer Teil meines musikalischen Lebens«, klärt der 34jährige in der Spex auf. Das klingt seltsam. Als würde Andy Borg plötzlich zugeben, schon immer ein Liebhaber von Hamburgs Vorzeige-Punkband Slime gewesen zu sein. Schließlich stammt Grohl aus dem Genre Hardcore, spielte in den achtziger Jahren bei Scream, einer melodiösen Schrabbelband aus Washington DC, gab sich dann dem Grunge hin und trommelte schließlich bei Nirvana. Er kommt also aus jenen Szene-Zusammenhängen, die Heavy Metal aufgrund seiner Plakativität eher belächelten. Hardcore, möchtegernpolitischkorrekt, wütete gegen die böse Welt, schnitt diskursive Themen wie Drogenfreiheit und Tierschutz an.

  • Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal *
    Compound AABA Form and Style Distinction in Heavy Metal * Stephen S. Hudson NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hps://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.21.27.1/mto.21.27.1.hudson.php KEYWORDS: Heavy Metal, Formenlehre, Form Perception, Embodied Cognition, Corpus Study, Musical Meaning, Genre ABSTRACT: This article presents a new framework for analyzing compound AABA form in heavy metal music, inspired by normative theories of form in the Formenlehre tradition. A corpus study shows that a particular riff-based version of compound AABA, with a specific style of buildup intro (Aas 2015) and other characteristic features, is normative in mainstream styles of the metal genre. Within this norm, individual artists have their own strategies (Meyer 1989) for manifesting compound AABA form. These strategies afford stylistic distinctions between bands, so that differences in form can be said to signify aesthetic posing or social positioning—a different kind of signification than the programmatic or semantic communication that has been the focus of most existing music theory research in areas like topic theory or musical semiotics. This article concludes with an exploration of how these different formal strategies embody different qualities of physical movement or feelings of motion, arguing that in making stylistic distinctions and identifying with a particular subgenre or style, we imagine that these distinct ways of moving correlate with (sub)genre rhetoric and the physical stances of imagined communities of fans (Anderson 1983, Hill 2016).

    The Metal Minute Awarded 2009 Best Personal Blog By Metal Hammer Magazine http://rayvanhornjr.blogspot.com/2010/02/dvd-review-bill-zebub- metal-retardation.html Monday, February 15, 2010 DVD Review: Bill Zebub - Metal Retardation Bill Zebub - Metal Retardation 2009 Bill Zebub Productions Ray Van Horn, Jr. Under the definition of "politically incorrect," you're quite possibly going to find Bill Zebub's name listed under the antonym bracket. The nation isn't quite the same as it was during the late sixties and early seventies when the Dean Martin roasts were, by today's defintions, as unpolitically correct as a Klan gathering. However, there was always a line of respect drawn between the panel of roasters and of course, the roastees. America was a bruised country in the midst of civil rights violence, and the healing motif as mainstream culture worked itself into a mode celebrating all walks of life, race and creed culminated in hilarious back-and-forth banter at Sammy Davis, Jr. on Martin's roast. Eventually this gave sway to the era of Archie Bunker and George Jefferson, which forever changed the social tide. History lessons aside, Bill Zebub, mastermind of the east coast underground metal rag The Grimoire of Exalted Deeds, has also released a slew of independent films and documentaries. If you're familiar with some of his homegrown horror videos such as The Crucifer, Kill the Scream Queen, Dolla Morte, Bad Acid, Jesus Christ: Serial Rapist, Dirtbags and The Worst Horror Movie Ever Made, you'll attest there's no experience in underground film like a Bill Zebub experience.

  • Spiritually Uncontrolled Art
    Spiritually uncon trolled art: Exploring aesthetics of evil in contemporary music Robert Andersson 2011 Uppsats, magisternivå , 15 hp Religionsvetenskap Människa, natur och religionsprogrammet Handledare: Juan Carlos Gumucio Examinator: Peder Thalén Abstract This essay investigates interpretations of evil as expressed in contemporary music, focusing mainly on lyrics in contemporary popular music. The purpose is to analyze whether there is a certain aesthetic embracing of risk and innovation on display when discussing such subject matters, and to relate such aesthetic connotations to cultural and religious aspects. Lyrical interpretations of evil in a musical context appear to be existent in different forms and are in various ways attempts to integrate the existence of evil acts, as leading to suffering and pain, by incorporating such themes into lyrical material. There appears to be a possible aesthetic embraced when artists are advocating evil acts, however, not totally separable from the aesthetics of the extreme metal scene. Such forms of creative practice appear as reliant on the dialectic between historical perceptions of morality, modern society as globalized, segmented and restructured and the reoccurrence of religion in a secularized perspective. Themes regarding evil appear in this form of aesthetic in different ways to traditional discourse; making use of historical and contemporary images of evil and portraying them as desirable in various ways. In some instances such creative release is also linked to religious belief and practice, making the artistic performance equivalent of a transcendental event. Keywords Aesthetics, contemporary music, culture, extreme metal, evil, modernism, music lyrics. 2 Table of contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................... 2 Table of contents........................................................................................................................ 3 1.

  • The Devil's Music
    religions Article The Devil’s Music: Satanism and Christian Rhetoric in the Lyrics of the Swedish Heavy Metal Band Ghost P.C.J.M. (Jarell) Paulissen Department of Biblical Sciences and Church History, Tilburg School of Catholic Theology, P.O. Box 90153, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands; [email protected] Abstract: This paper is an inquiry into a contemporary heavy metal band from Sweden called Ghost. Ghost released its first studio album in 2010 and, while there is some discussion as to what their genre is exactly, they immediately became a rising star in the metal scene. Yet what is of particular interest from a storytelling point of view, especially with regard to theological answers to philosophical questions in popular culture, is that the band presents itself as a satanic version of the Catholic Church through their stage act and lyrics. This made me curious whether they are trying to convey a message and, if yes, what that message might be. For the present paper, I have focused on the latter by performing a non-exhaustive textual analysis of the lyrics in a selection of songs from each of the four studio albums released so far. Ghost turns Christian liturgy on its head by utilizing devout language that is normally reserved for God and Christ to describe Satan and the Antichrist, a strategy I have called the ”satanification” of Christian doctrine, and in doing so their songs evoke imagery of a satanic faith community at prayer. The band then uses this radical inversion of traditional Christian themes to criticize certain elements of society, especially those aspects they associate with organized religion.
