Taking Back Sunday Is Crashing Down with Tidal Waves Taking Back Sunday Is Crashing Down With Tidal Waves Thirteen years ago, I was snooping around my sister’s bedroom. I wanted to be just like her, always in awe of the studded belts and crazy colored Adidas Sneakers she wore. When I spotted her bright blue iPod Nano she got for her birthday, I had the urge to look through her secret music collection. (Pretty sure I was still sporting my electric blue Sony Walkman with limited selection of U2 CDs my Dad insisted I buy.) I thumbed the iPod wheel, put in her earbuds and pressed play. “You’re So Last Summer” starts blaring by Taking Back Sunday from the Tell All Your Friends Album (2002). And I just remember Adam Lazzara’s vocals ripping through my pre-pubescent head, “Maybe I should hate you for this, never really did ever quite get that far.” The lyrics, matched with hardcore sound and pop components, has blessed my playlists ever since. So you thought, “Thirteen years ago and they don’t have anything new out?” WRONG! They are crashing down with their 7th studio album, Tidal Wave, on September 16. I got the opportunity to interview John Nolan, current guitarist and co-lead vocalist of Taking Back Sunday. We touched on the upcoming album, old quotes and a beef from the past! Alyssa Cavallo (Motif): How has your sound grown the last couple of years? John Nolan: [We didn’t] fall back on the standard choice, and [we] challenged ourselves for this album. AC: Some people think your sound has gotten more of an Americana vibe. JN: That’s probably true. Not something we made an effort to do. AC: “Everyone was calling us an emo band, and for us we didn’t want to be that because in our minds, we were more than that. And we wanted to be more than that.” – Adam Lazzara (2006) How do you feel about this quote, 10 years later? JN: We feel the same way; go back to 2002 you will find similar quote. The emo scene, whatever that means, never really meant that much to us. We always kinda felt like we were doing our own thing. We played off and influenced each other, but ultimately we felt like we were our own band doing our our own thing and we never felt that connected to what people were describing as the emo scene. AC: Any horror stories creating Tidal Wave? JN: Horror stories? We committed to re-work songs at any point. There were times we were literally on our 8th version and it seemed like it was completely falling apart and worse than it was when we started. Fortunately we kept pushing and we always had a breakthrough. It’s part of the process, but it was not negative. But there were moments when it would get scary. AC: Are there any songs with that same emotion tied to it? JN: For the first song of the album, “Death Wolf,” we went thru multiple bridges. At one point, [there were] no drums, no anything, just strings sounds and all this pretty stuff happened, which is completely opposite of what it ended up being. Getting this bridge part right was probably a week of different attempts and approaches, and we finally had the breakthrough. The coolest parts of the album took a while to get there. AC: Is there one person who writes or do you all write songs together? JN: Usually one person has the basic idea for the song, like the guitar part. On this album, our drummer, Mark, would make these songs in Garage Band that were kind of electronic, but they were these cool looped songs. He would take them to the band and we would make them more organic. There’s always someone bringing an idea to the group. We hash it out as we’re recording. Somebody will have a vision and that person will take the reins and steer and someone else will step up. AC: What is the influence behind Tidal Wave? Can you talk about the cover art? JN: There are references in our songs to tidal waves. The cover image we really like; the picture was taken by Adam’s wife, Meesha, in Florida and it is of their son standing at the edge of the ocean. We really liked the image; it felt like a good fit. The picture is pretty calm and serene, and as if there’s something on the horizon. I like that. AC: Can you name some musical idols that inspire? JN: Everybody has different ones, and it’s part of what helps with the sound. Mark, I think you can hear it, but Keith Moon from The Who. I think he has been following that influence more and more the last couple of records. Adam is a big Tom Petty fan and that’s starting to show. For me, Pearl Jam and Nirvana got me started playing guitar. Those bands from the ‘90s stick with me as the most influential. AC: Can I bring up something unusual? Can I make you a little uncomfortable? JN: *giggles* Yeah, sure. AC: Is there a fiery feud with you and the band Brand New? JN: Noooo. That’s something people have fueled on their own for a very long time. I think it’s something people really want there to be more than it is. We don’t cross paths with them much; we ran into them here and there at festivals the past few years. The whole thing goes back to some songs from 2002, and there was actual fighting between bands and personal issues. We’re going back like 16 years… AC: Didn’t Adam steal someone’s girlfriend? JN: There are different versions of what happened. We talked about some of the realities of what happened, but nobody really cares. People want this big story that someone stole this person’s girlfriend. It was really much less than that. AC: You have a tour coming up! See you at The Met? JN: Yes we are there on October 1. It’s exciting to be on tour with the album out. There you have it! Make sure you get your ears around Tidal Wave when it’s available on September 16; I can’t stop listening to “You Can’t Look Back,” a single from the album. Now that we’re done with iPods, you can stream all their music on Spotify (one innovation I’m glad for — iPhone 7 NOT so much) and it’s available for purchase on iTunes..

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.

Tours roll across the coun- try like mobile homes in a Florida hurricane. The most memo- rable for this magazine/bar owner were the Warped Tour and Wakestock, where such bands as Bad Religion, Billy Talent, Alexisonfire, Closet Monster, The Trews and Crowned King had audiences in mosh-pit frenzies. At Wakestock, in Wasaga Beach, Ont., Gasoline, Fox Racing, and Bluenotes rocked so hard at their two-day private cottage party that local authorities shut down the stage after Magneta Lane and Flashlight Brown. Poor Moneen didn't get to crush the eardrums of the drunken revellers. That was day one! Day two was an even bigger party with the live music again shut down. The Reason, Moneen and Crowned King owned the patio until Alexisonfire and their crew rolled into party. Gasoline would also like to thank Chuck (see cover story) and other UN officials for making sure that the boys in Sum41 made it back to the Bovine for another cocktail, despite the nearby mortar and gunfire during their Warchild excursion.

Rhymes and Linkin Park recently collaborated on “We Made It,” the first single and video from Rhymes’ upcoming album, Blessed. By touring together, Linkin Park & Busta are taking a cue from the chorus of their song: “…we took it on the road…”. As recently pointed out in Rolling Stone’s “Summer Tour Guide,” the tour will see nine acts joining rock superstars Linkin Park, who are also offering concertgoers a digital souvenir pack that includes a recording of the band’s entire set.

    This Ain’t a Scene, It’s a Buzzer Race Sadboys are temporary. Sad trumpets are forever. Written by Brian Luong Tossups: 1. This band’s extensive and impressive merchandise catalogue can be attributed to guitarist Nick Steinhardt’s side occupation as a graphic designer. A live EP following this band’s sophomore studio album was titled Live on BBC Radio 1 and featured vocals from Jordan Dreyer of La Dispute. It’s not Red Hot Chili Peppers, but this band’s distinct asterisk-shaped logo was meant to evoke converging road markings leading to a sunset, and was first used in promotional artwork for the band’s second album, with that album’s initials “PTSBBAM” arranged in the negative spaces of the logo. This band’s 2016 single “Palm Dreams” was described by their frontman as a song about his inability to ask his mother about why she moved to California after she passed. The album from which that single is taken, as a whole, deals with themes of frontman Jeremy Bolm grieving the loss of his mother due to cancer. For 10 points, give the name of this Los Angeles-based post-hardcore band, which you may know from the albums Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me and Stage Four. ANSWER: Touché Amoré 2.
