Virgil Donati Mind the Direction of the Sound SEVEN THE HARDWAY – where did the name come from? I think it was Mark who came up with the name. According to him, it just popped into his head. The meaning is open to interpretation. For me it represents the continual struggle we face in life, and ‘Seven’ symbolises the seven virtues, seven deadly sins, or the seven wonders. You chose ROY Z (BRUCE DICKINSON, JUDAS PRIEST, HELLOWEEN, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) to mix the debut album – has the band collectively produced this release? We thought he would be a good choice, bearing in virgil donati mind the direction of the sound. He has had great success mixing heavy bands such as Judas Priest Interview By Ray Deegan ‘ASSAULT DOWNUNDER’ and Halford, so we thought he could bring out the essence of the band. Tony, Mark and I co-produced, although I would have liked to have had more time. But it seems we’re always working to deadlines. Mark practically re-invented his singing style to sit with the music. It was hard work, but I think the This November, Virgil Donati will return home for a long anticipated results are there. This band sounds like it has the potential to attract Australian Clinic Tour.

In a history making first, Virgil and Drumscene have banded The extraordinary power of the human voice is undeniable.

These days, one of my biggest sources There are some familiar faces joining you on this project, plus a couple of new comers. Can you tell us about the formation of STH? Tony MacAlpine and I had spoken about producing a heavy, progressive rock record with vocals for quite some time, and STH is the end result. Mark Boals and Tony actually initiated the writing process while I was out on the road in 2009. By the time I had returned to LA, they had already written a batch of songs. That’s when I became involved, and started recording the drum tracks, and also wrote a few of the songs. We asked a young Argentinean, Stefania Daniel to join us on guitar, and we brought in Doug Shreeve on bass. Doug has been working with me in Planet X and my solo band. He’s an incredible talent. 16 DRUMscene Issue 62 of inspiration comes from recording in my studio.

  • 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.

    BJØRN ALLAN HOLDSWORTH SCHILLE RESHAPING HARMONY Master Thesis in Musicology - February 2011 Institute of Musicology| University of Oslo 3001 2 2 Acknowledgment Writing this master thesis has been an incredible rewarding process, and I would like to use this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to those who have assisted me in my work. Most importantly I would like to thank my wonderful supervisors, Odd Skårberg and Eckhard Baur, for their good advice and guidance. Their continued encouragement and confidence in my work has been a source of strength and motivation throughout these last few years. My thanks to Steve Hunt for his transcription of the chord changes to “Pud Wud” and helpful information regarding his experience of playing with Allan Holdsworth. I also wish to thank Jeremy Poparad for generously providing me with the chord changes to “The Sixteen Men of Tain”. Furthermore I would like to thank Gaute Hellås for his incredible effort of reviewing the text and providing helpful comments where my spelling or formulations was off. His hard work was beyond what any friend could ask for. (I owe you one!) Big thanks to friends and family: Your love, support and patience through the years has always been, and will always be, a source of strength. And finally I wish to acknowledge Arne Torvik for introducing me to the music of Allan Holdsworth so many years ago in a practicing room at the Grieg Academy of Music in Bergen. Looking back, it is obvious that this was one of those life-changing moments; a moment I am sincerely grateful for.

    Reading activity Title: Yngwie J. Malmsteen Level. Intermediate + Objective. To practice reading comprehension and identify the past form of the verb and the regular and irregular forms. Instructions: Read the text carefully and answer the questions below. Yngwie J. Malmsteen Yngwie Johann Malmsteen (born Lars Johann Yngve Lannerbäck, June 30, 1963) is a Swedish guitarist, composer and bandleader. Widely recognized as a virtuoso, Malmsteen achieved widespread acclaim in the 1980s due to his technical proficiency and his pioneering neo-classical metal. Guitar One magazine rated him the third fastest guitar shredder in the world after Michael Angelo Batio and Chris Impellitteri. Born into a musical family in Stockholm, Yngwie was the youngest child in the family. At an early age, he showed little interest in music. It wasn't until September 18, 1970 when at age seven he saw a TV special on the death of Jimi Hendrix that Malmsteen became obsessed with the guitar. To quote his official website, "The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born". He claims his first name in Swedish means "young Viking chief". Actually, it is a variation of Yngvi, who founded the House of Yngling, which is the oldest known Swedish dynasty. Malmsteen was in his teens when he first encountered the music of the 19th- José Ramón Montero Del Angel | Universidad Veracruzana century violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini, whom he cites as his biggest classical influence. It has been rumoured that Yngwie believes himself to be the reincarnation of the temperamental, often criticized,and widely misunderstood violinist from Genoa. Through his emulation of Paganini concerto pieces on guitar, Malmsteen developed a prodigious technical fluency.
