Death's Black Train New 12-Inch EP “DEATH‘S BLACK TRAIN“ out on December 06, 2012 The Raymen emerged with their back-from-the-grave, swamp-blues meets death-country and psychobilly sound in 1985, debuting on their "Going Down To Death Valley" album. "Desert Drive" and their double LP, "From the Trashcan To the Ballroom" followed the next two years. Song themes run the gamut from werewolves, to voodoo, 50s horror B-movies, trains, switchblades, witchdoctors, Lucifer, outer space and fast cars. Oh, yeah, and the perennial trouble with dames. Hoodoo you love? One constant in the band and its direction over, low, these many decades, has been head Raymen, and lead singer and songwriter, Hank Ray. With 15 albums and appearances on numerous compilations over the years, the Berlin based Raymen return in top form with their latest release, "Death's Black Train". "Death's Black Train" is a rockin brain-stomper that gives no quarter, and is an instant refresher course in what rock and roll is all about in the first place. Hank Ray is recognized as the Godfather of Death Country Rock, following a Goth C&W style of his own. On "Death's Black Train" Hank Ray dials up the energy to recapture the dark ju-ju and fury that made the The Raymen one of the top cult bands in the genre, and not just another "Cramps" wannabe band. Hank Rays distinctive, rugged baritone imparts an ominous tone to the songs, adding an extra dimension of menace and boding evil to the music. The Raymen are scorching up the tracks again, playing to beat the very Devil they sold their souls to, all those years ago. The EP fairly drips with blood, snake venom, graveyard mud and reeking of sulphur, for all who climb on board "Deaths Black Train". All board! EP is limited to 300 copies total. 25 x toeterlein edition; 50 x mailorder edition; 225 x regular and comes in 3 different sleeves.

  • Psychobilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease in Athens
    IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies Volume 5 – Issue 1 – Spring 2020 Psychobilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease in Athens Michael Tsangaris, University of Piraeus, Greece Konstantina Agrafioti, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The complexity and the bizarre nature of Psychobilly as a music genre and as a music collectivity make it very convenient for reconsidering several views in relation to subcultures, neo-tribes and scenes. More specifically, the case of Greek Psychobilly can categorically present how subcultural trends can be disseminated across gender, social classes and national borders. This study aims to trace historically the scene of Psychobilly in Athens based on typical ethnographic research and analytic autoethnography. The research question is: Which are the necessary elements that can determine the existence of a local music scene? Supported by semi-structured interviews, the study examines how individuals related to the Psychobilly subculture comprehend what constitutes the Greek Psychobilly scene. Although it can be questionable whether there ever was a Psychobilly scene in Athens, there were always small circles in existence into which people drifted and stayed for quite a while, constituting the pure core of the Greek Psychobilly subculture. Keywords: psychobilly, music genres, Athens, Post-subcultural Theory 31 IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies Volume 5 – Issue 1 – Spring 2020 Introduction According to the American Countercultures Encyclopaedia, Psychobilly is a subculture that emerged in the 1980s from the unlikely combination of rockabilly and punk rock. The provocative and sometimes outrageous style associated with psychobillies (also known as “psychos”) mixes the blue-collar rawness and rebellion of 1950s rockabilly with the confrontational do-it-yourself style of 1970s punk rock, a syncretism infused with themes from monster and horror films, campy sci-fi movies, and even professional wrestling” (Wojcik, 2013, p.

  • The Evolution of Emo and Its Theoretical Implications 175
    The Evolution of Emo and Its Theoretical Implications 175 Mirosław Aleksander Miernik The Evolution of Emo and Its Theoretical Implications The purpose of this article is to analyze how emo, a youth subculture, evolved in the United States during a period of approximately twenty five years, since the mid-1980s, particularly focusing on how it changed in regard to the zeitgeist of the time period, as well as how it appropriated various elements of past subcultures into itself in order to create its own subcultural identity. Special attention will be paid to the third incarnation, which emerged at the beginning of the twenty-first century and proved to be the most widespread variation of the subculture. It is also interesting how this incarnation was affected by historical events such as the Columbine High School Massacre and 9/11. The theoretical implications of emo are the second issue that this article at- tempts to tackle. In particular, when viewed from the perspective of post-subculture studies, it allows one to revisit certain theories of the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies at the University of Birmingham (CCCS), which pioneered sub- culture studies in the 1960s and 70s. The relationship between post-subculture studies and the CCCS’s approach has always been very complex. Even though many representatives of post-subculture studies criticized the CCCS for various shortcomings, most significantly for an a priori approach that ignores empirical evidence and limits the concept of authenticity within subcultures (Muggleton 19–30). At the same time, the work of the CCCS has been always treated with respect and considered a milestone.

  • Atom and His Package Possibly the Smallest Band on the List, Atom & His
    Atom and His Package Possibly the smallest band on the list, Atom & his Package consists of Adam Goren (Atom) and his package (a Yamaha music sequencer) make funny punk songs utilising many of of the package's hundreds of instruments about the metric system, the lead singer of Judas Priest and what Jewish people do on Christmas. Now moved on to other projects, Atom will remain the person who told the world Anarchy Means That I Litter, The Palestinians Are Not the Same Thing as the Rebel Alliance Jackass, and If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're a ****. Ghost Mice With only two members in this folk/punk band their voices and their music can be heard along with such pride. This band is one of the greatest to come out of the scene because of their abrasive acoustic style. The band consists of a male guitarist (I don't know his name) and Hannah who plays the violin. They are successful and very well should be because it's hard to 99 when you have such little to work with. This band is off Plan It X records and they put on a fantastic show. Not only is the band one of the leaders of the new genre called folk/punk but I'm sure there is going to be very big things to come from them and it will always be from the heart. Defiance, Ohio Defiance, Ohio are perhaps one of the most compassionate and energetic leaders of the "folk/punk" movement. Their clever lyrics accompanied by fast, melodic, acoustic guitars make them very enjoyable to listen to.

Perry, A.B. & B.S.Ed., University of Georgia M.A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Fred J. Hay At the grassroots, Appalachian music encompasses much more than traditional music genres, like old-time and bluegrass. While these prevailing musics continue to inform most popular and scholarly understandings of the region’s musical heritage, many contemporary scholars dismiss such narrow definitions of “Appalachian music” as exclusionary and inaccurate. Many researchers have, thus, sought to broaden current understandings of Appalachia’s diverse contemporary and historical cultural landscape as well as explore connections between Appalachian and other regional, national, and global cultural phenomena. In April 2009, I began participant observation and interviewing in an experimental music scene unfolding in downtown Boone, North Carolina.

I got 1-2-3-4 psychobilly DNA The only drug I needed was this music through my brain Voodoo rhythms pump me up, drive me insane Whey hey, well what can I say? I got 1-2-3-4 psychobilly DNA Now all these years later I’m changed beyond repair Because I’m a psychobilly and I don’t care Whey hey, well what can I say? I got 1-2-3-4 psychobilly DNA — NORM AND THE NIGHTMAREZ, “Psychobilly DNA,” Psychobilly D.N.A., 2016 s my eyes adjusted to the dim light in the small club in Austin, Texas, I took in unfamiliar sights and sounds. This, I was told by my friend Awho had invited me, was the psychobilly subculture. I saw that par- ticipants had fused a 1950s aesthetic with punk elements. Men’s heads were shaved on the sides, as with Mohawk haircuts, but rather than sticking up into pointed liberty spikes, their hair had been combed forward into one flat-topped, triangular wedge that jutted out and up from their foreheads. 2 Introduction Some women had the same haircut, while others had their hair styled in curls and bangs like those seen on vintage pinup illustrations. Leather jackets, cuffed blue jeans, tight-fitting capris, polka-dot dresses, animal prints, kitten heels, and pompadours reminded me of the movie Grease, but the patches, buttons, metal studs, Dr.
