Doch ihre Musik ist kein Klischee. VON CHRISTOPH DALLACH Das neue Album der Fleet Foxes sei „vermutlich eher lang - Hommage an die Schönklänge der späten sechziger und frühen weilig“, warnt Robin Pecknold. Eine „nicht wirklich eingängige“ siebziger Jahre. Die „Zeit von 1965 bis ungefähr 1972“ sei die Sammlung von Songs, und „Hits“ seien da schon gar nicht drauf. „beste für Musik“ gewesen, sagt Pecknold, und zwar, weil sie da - Wer trotzdem neugierig auf das Album namens „Helplessness mals nahezu frei von überflüssiger Technik gewesen sei. „Modi - Blues“ sei, solle es sich halt im Internet runterladen – ohne dafür sche Produktionen haben viele tolle Lieder und Platten ruiniert, zu zahlen, selbstverständlich.

Electronic Theses and Dissertations, 2004-2019. 1305. https://stars.library.ucf.edu/etd/1305 ROMANTIC IDEALS IN CONTEMPORARY FOLK MUSIC by BRETT MICHAEL SCHWARTZ B.S. University of Central Florida, 2011 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of English in the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2015 ABSTRACT This thesis examines contemporary folk music from no earlier than 2006, specifically music of the bands The Decemberists, Fleet Foxes, and Bon Iver. Providing a close reading of select songs, I prove that modern music is seeing a revival in the Romantic Era and Transcendentalist ideals and philosophy. The works and philosophy of Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834), William Wordsworth (1770-1850), John Keats (1795-1821), as well as Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), among others and their critics are all considered for points of comparison to the modern lyrics.

  • Hello, I'm So Excited to Announce That the Fourth Fleet Foxes Album Shore, Fifteen Songs in Fifty-Five Minutes, Will Be Releas
    Hello, I’m so excited to announce that the fourth Fleet Foxes album Shore, fifteen songs in fifty-five minutes, will be released in full on September 22, the autumnal equinox. If you had asked me this past April, watching the world be rearranged and with a half-finished album on a hard drive in my closet, I would have told you the record was likely to never come out at all. So it is an enormous joy that it all came together in the way that it did and that we're able to share it so soon after its completion. WRITING I began writing Shore in September of 2018, right at the end of the 170-show tour for the last Fleet Foxes album Crack-Up. I’m very proud of that record, and of the tour we were able to mount around it, but living for that long inside Crack-Up’s dense compositions, and touring that relentlessly, left me in a quandary: I didn’t want to take another long break from music; I really wanted to work and feel useful, but I needed to find a new, brighter way of making songs if I was going to go straight into something large and ambitious again. I found myself listening more to Arthur Russell, Curtis Mayfield, Nina Simone, Michael Nau, Van Morrison, Sam Cooke, The Roches, João Gilberto, Piero Piccioni, Tim Bernardes, Tim Maia, Jai Paul, and Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou - music that is simultaneously complex and elemental, “sophisticated” and humane, propulsive rhythmi- cally but feathery melodically.

The mesmerizing 10-song concert highlights material from their new record – the influential band's first release in six years – while also looking back to such favorites as "Helplessness Blues" and "Mykonos." The century-old Knockdown Center, a magnificent former glass-blowing facility and door factory, provides a perfect setting for the group's atmospheric harmonies and expansive arrangements. ARTIST BIO Indie folk band Fleet Foxes formed between two childhood friends, Robin Pecknold and Skyler Skjelset, in Seattle, Washington in 2006. They topped numerous “Best of” lists with their self-titled debut album in 2008, including Rolling Stone’s 100 Best Albums of the 2000’s and Pitchfork’s 50 Best Albums of 2008. Their sophomore album, Helplessness Blues, was nominated for Best Folk Album at the 2012 Grammy Awards and debuted at number 4 on the Billboard Top 200. After nearly a decade since their debut, Fleet Foxes released their long-awaited and highly anticipated third album, Crack-Up, on Nonesuch Records on Friday, June 16th.

  • Vem Kan Bli Rockstjärna?
    Vem kan bli rockstjärna? - en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av genus inom musikjournalistik Medie och kommunikationsvetenskap Kandidatkurs Examensarbete 15 HP Stockholms universitet, HT 18 Linn Koch-Emmery Handledare: Torbjörn Rolandsson !1 Abstract Denna uppsats undersöker hur musikjournalistik framställer manliga och kvinnliga artister inom genren rockmusik i syfte att undersöka hur dessa representeras i förhållande till deras kön. Studiens material baseras på sammanlagt tio artiklar från magasinen Pitchfork och Rolling Stone Magazine. För att synliggöra maktrelationer kopplat till genus används en kritisk diskursanalys med tyngdpunkt i Norman Faircloughs tredimensionella modell och Roger Fowlers teori om kritisk lingvistik. Den teoretiska ramen innefattar studier om representation, språk och diskursteori samt genus, performativitet och populärkultur. Studiens resultat indikerar att kvinnor och män inom rockmusik beskrivs på olika sätt baserat på normativa föreställningar om deras kön. Nyckelord: Kritisk diskursanalys, genus, musikjournalistik, populärmusik !2 Innehållsförteckning 1.

  • Top Albums of 2020 by Hayden Goodridge
    Top Albums of 2020 By Hayden Goodridge Looking over the stacks of records released throughout this (hopefully) once-in-a-lifetime year, it’s surprising to be reminded of the drastic lifestyle changes none of us could seem to avoid. I’ve been compiling year-end album lists for quite a few years, but this year in review carries greater emotional attachment than I’ve experienced years prior. For each album I recall hearing, I’m also given a snapshot of the level of fear, grief, numbness, etc. I felt in reaction to the state of the outside world on first listen. Music—and any form of art for that matter—has been a necessary coping mechanism in this period of tremendous uncertainty. To the artists that made it into this personal list of favorites, I extend gratitude for the comfort, distraction, and jams they provided us at the shaky start of a new decade. Honorable Mentions Ummon – Slift ​ A muscular alien man stands on the barren surface of an unknown planet in space holding a gigantic sword behind him—ready to attack. The cover art of Ummon perfectly captures what Slift is all about. ​ ​ This cosmic psych rock trio buries the listener in huge swells of reverberating riffs which drive their sci-fi level of imagination forward into the final frontier. Favorite Song: “It’s Coming…” Magic Oneohtrix Point Never – Oneohtrix Point Never ​ Tuning into a Oneohtrix Point Never record feels like falling asleep in front of the late-night glow of your television. Familiar musical themes quickly float in and out of consciousness like a meandering dream.
