  • “Praying Angrily”
    “Praying Angrily” Psalm 69 Erica Cooper Assistant Minister August 4, 2019 The Ninth Sunday of Pentecost In 1993 I attended my very first rock concert. Or concerts, I should say. In the early 90’s Lollapalooza was a budding 4-day outdoor music festival touring the U.S. with top billing bands like Sonic Youth, the Breeders and Green Day. I was thirteen years old, still in middle school, and really had no business being there, but I had some older high school friends who invited me to go, with their mom chaperoning in the background of course. It was hot and humid that day, as is always the case in Atlanta in July. I had been chugging water all afternoon to stay hydrated, and soon needed to use the bathroom. Between bands, I took my friend Nori with me as we headed out on a thirty-minute journey across the field, weaving a bobbing through 20,000 sweaty, sunburned Gen-Xers. We made it to the bathroom finally, and were delighted that the next band had not yet gone on stage, we didn’t miss out on anything. So we headed back across the field to our area where the rest of our friends were. But, somewhere in the middle of our journey, Nori and I lost one another. I looked around but couldn’t find her, and at this same time, another band started to play, so I stopped where I was to listen. This band was unfamiliar to me, a band called Rage Against the Machine. At first I didn’t notice the group of 20- something shirtless men gathering around me.

  • 1 This Isn't Paradise, This Is Hell: Discourse, Performance and Identity in the Hawai'i Metal Scene a Dissertation Submitte
    1 THIS ISN’T PARADISE, THIS IS HELL: DISCOURSE, PERFORMANCE AND IDENTITY IN THE HAWAI‘I METAL SCENE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES DECEMBER 2012 By Benjamin Hedge Olson Dissertation Committee: Kathleen Sands, Chairperson David E. Stannard Vernadette Gonzalez Roderick Labrador Helen J. Baroni Keywords: metal, popular music, popular culture, religion, subculture, Hawai‘i 2 Abstract The island of Oahu is home to probably the most ethnically diverse metal scene in the United States. Contemporary Hawai`i prides itself on being a “model of multiculturalism” free of the racism and ethnic strife that is endemic to the continent; however, beneath this superficial openness and tolerance exist deeply felt class, ethnic, and racial tensions. The metal scene in Hawai`i experiences these conflicting impulses towards inclusion and exclusion as profoundly as any other aspect of contemporary Hawaiian culture, but there is a persistent hope within the metal scene that subcultural identity can triumph over such tensions. Complicating this process is the presence of white military personnel, primarily born and raised on the continental United States, whose cultural attitudes, performances of masculinity, and conception of metal culture differ greatly from that of local metalheads. The misunderstandings, hostilities, bids for subcultural capital, and attempted bridge-building that take place between metalheads in Hawai‘i constitute a subculturally specific attempt to address anxieties concerning the presence of the military, the history of race and racism in Hawai`i, and the complicated, often conflicting desires for both openness and exclusivity that exist within local culture.

  • The Life & Near Death Story of Patty Schemel
    REVIEWS "Describing the parabolic ups and downs of the career of Hole drummer Patty Schemel, tricked-up docu Hit So Hard features never-before-witnessed tour documentation recorded on Schemel's own Hi-8 camera, including her extended stay at the digs of band frontwoman Courtney Love just before Kurt Cobain's suicide. This recently recovered ace-in-the-Hole footage is supplemented by helmer P. David Ebersole's newly shot interviews, presented in split-screen or apportioned in brief bursts. Pic benefits from the percussionist's plainspokenness, and should attract grunge curiosity-seekers in theatrical and tube play." VARIETY "A raw, unflinching look at Schemel's hard-knock life." WALL STREET JOURNAL "Necessary viewing for any Hole fan. The footage was ample and intimate -- scenes of Schemel passed out in her hotel room after shooting heroin, Love moshing backstage at Lollapalooza with the Offspring's Dexter Holland and, most eerily, Love at home with Kurt Cobain and Frances Bean. It's heartbreaking." SPIN MAGAZINE "Hit So Hard links one milestone of Schemel’s survival to another with a caustic grace lent by the subject herself: Alcoholic at age 12. Out, tormented lesbian at 17. Junkie by her early 20s. On and off the wagon numerous times by her late 20s. A homeless, crack-addicted, music-industry exile by the end of the ’90s. It’s all there in the open, backed up with fascinating, never-before-seen archival footage featuring Love and her husband Kurt Cobain." MOVIELINE "This pull-no-punches portrait of the hell-and-back life of Patty Schemel is no ordinary rockumentary.

  • Exploring the Chinese Metal Scene in Contemporary Chinese Society (1996-2015)
    "THE SCREAMING SUCCESSOR": EXPLORING THE CHINESE METAL SCENE IN CONTEMPORARY CHINESE SOCIETY (1996-2015) Yu Zheng A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2016 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Esther Clinton Kristen Rudisill © 2016 Yu Zheng All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This research project explores the characteristics and the trajectory of metal development in China and examines how various factors have influenced the localization of this music scene. I examine three significant roles – musicians, audiences, and mediators, and focus on the interaction between the localized Chinese metal scene and metal globalization. This thesis project uses multiple methods, including textual analysis, observation, surveys, and in-depth interviews. In this thesis, I illustrate an image of the Chinese metal scene, present the characteristics and the development of metal musicians, fans, and mediators in China, discuss their contributions to scene’s construction, and analyze various internal and external factors that influence the localization of metal in China. After that, I argue that the development and the localization of the metal scene in China goes through three stages, the emerging stage (1988-1996), the underground stage (1997-2005), the indie stage (2006-present), with Chinese characteristics. And, this localized trajectory is influenced by the accessibility of metal resources, the rapid economic growth, urbanization, and the progress of modernization in China, and the overall development of cultural industry and international cultural communication. iv For Yisheng and our unborn baby! v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First of all, I would like to show my deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr.

  • Punk Rock and the Socio-Politics of Place Dissertation Presented
    Building a Better Tomorrow: Punk Rock and the Socio-Politics of Place Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Jeffrey Samuel Debies-Carl Graduate Program in Sociology The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Townsand Price-Spratlen, Advisor J. Craig Jenkins Amy Shuman Jared Gardner Copyright by Jeffrey S. Debies-Carl 2009 Abstract Every social group must establish a unique place or set of places with which to facilitate and perpetuate its way of life and social organization. However, not all groups have an equal ability to do so. Rather, much of the physical environment is designed to facilitate the needs of the economy—the needs of exchange and capital accumulation— and is not as well suited to meet the needs of people who must live in it, nor for those whose needs are otherwise at odds with this dominant spatial order. Using punk subculture as a case study, this dissertation investigates how an unconventional and marginalized group strives to manage ‘place’ in order to maintain its survival and to facilitate its way of life despite being positioned in a relatively incompatible social and physical environment. To understand the importance of ‘place’—a physical location that is also attributed with meaning—the dissertation first explores the characteristics and concerns of punk subculture. Contrary to much previous research that focuses on music, style, and self-indulgence, what emerged from the data was that punk is most adequately described in terms of a general set of concerns and collective interests: individualism, community, egalitarianism, antiauthoritarianism, and a do-it-yourself ethic.

  • Punk's Not Dead in East La: Exploring the East Los
    Revista de Estudios Globales y Arte Contemporáneo, Vol. 3, Núm. 1, 2015, 198-219 Alicia Vanessa Nuñez Rafaela Fiore Urízar PUNK’S NOT DEAD IN EAST LA: EXPLORING THE EAST LOS SERIES AND IT’S USE OF LOCALITY AND CULTURAL HYBRIDITY FOR EASTSIDE CATHARSIS Introduction Depictions of Los Angeles emphasize an obsession with beauty, wealth, and fame; a media fueled superficiality that gives a myopic view of the city itself. For its inhabitants, the realities of this City of Lights seem unrecognizable from the fairytales its own neighborhood of Hollywood tries to disperse to the world. Sure, the rich and famous reside amongst luxury and comfort, but take a few steps outside of this glimmering bubble, and the disparities of millions of Angelinos become apparent. Such marginalization is experienced throughout the county, but the current Punk scene of East Los Angeles may be one of the biggest indicators of the existence of such urban problems. Some may ask, “hasn’t Punk been dead since the early 80’s?” Much like its unending fervor against conformity and uniformity, Punk continues to live; offering teens of the Eastside an escape against the Revista de Estudios Globales y Arte Contemporáneo ISSN: 2013-8652 online http://revistes.ub.edu/index.php/REGAC/index http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ Alicia Vanessa Nuñez & Dr. Rafaela Fiore Urízar, “Punk’s Not Dead in East LA: Exploring the East Los Series and It’s Use of Locality and Cultural Hybridity for Eastside Catharsis” harsh realities that comes with living in the city of luminous yet scathing lights.

There had yet to be a punk rock band there until the mid-2000s. In the following paper, I detail the rise of heavy metal in Morocco. Beginning with the early metal scene, I trace through critical moments in its growth, building up to the origins of the Moroccan punk scene and the state of those subcultures in recent years.
