  • Pagine 2 [Modalità Compatibilità]
    Satyricon: The Age Of Nero : l’epoca di Nerone –in cui era vissuto anche Petronio, autore del Satyricon- è stata l’influenza The Age Of Nero maggiore nel produrre questo nuovo lavoro della band Film : Battle Royale norvegese. Satyr entusiasta, saltella in ogni intervista promettendo un lavoro dal suono più moderno e personale: per la Regista: Kinji composizione dei brani si è addirittura ritirato in una Fukasaku capanna in una foresta (insieme a Blackthorn dei Thorns). Peccato che poi per la produzione abbia scelto la California. Mi piacerebbe credere in una contaminazione dovuta solo ed esclusivamente al sole, alle palme e alle ragazze in bikini, ma purtroppo non penso sia così.

  • Music As Transgression: Masking and Sonic Abjection in Norwegian Black Metal
    MUSIC AS TRANSGRESSION: MASKING AND SONIC ABJECTION IN NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL by Woodrow Steinken B.A., New York University, 2015 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts & Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Pittsburgh 2018 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS & SCIENCES This thesis was presented by Woodrow Steinken It was defended on March 28, 2018 and approved by Olivia Bloechl, Professor, Music James Cassaro, Professor, Music Thesis Director: Deane Root, Professor, Music ii Copyright © by Woodrow Steinken 2018 iii MUSIC AS TRANSGRESSION: MASKING AND SONIC ABJECTION IN NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL Woodrow Steinken, M.A. University of Pittsburgh, 2018 In the late 1980s, the Second Wave of black metal was founded in Norway by the band Mayhem. This heavy metal scene was populated by bands such as Emperor, Darkthrone, Burzum, Gorgoroth, and Satyricon. These bands performed chaotic music, often setting lyrics with themes of Satanism, anti-Christianity, murder, rape, and torture. Extremely fast or slow tempos, unusual song structures, distortion, and lo-fi sound quality distinguished the scene stylistically from other European and American heavy metals. The individuals who created this music did so under the disguise of masks: pseudonyms and corpsepaint, a makeup style that makes one look like a corpse. Members of black metal bands also engaged in extremely violent and criminal activities, including burning churches, murdering strangers and friends for various reasons, and committing suicide. This thesis explores the connections between the music and the transgressions of this music subculture, with masking at the intersection between the two.

  • SATYRICON Dark Medieval Times + the Shadowthrone (Reissues)
    SATYRICON Dark Medieval Times + The Shadowthrone (ReIssues) When it comes to pivotal moments in the evolution of heavy music, the Norwegian black metal scene of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s takes some beating for sheer audacity and contrarian verve. Most importantly, many of the records released during those tumultuous formative years have become established and undisputed classics in metal’s illustrious canon, and SATYRICON’s extraordinary early works must surely rank among the most revered of all. The first SATYRICON album, Dark Medieval Times, was released in the autumn of 1993, through the young band’s own Moonfog Productions imprint. Recorded earlier that year, it was both instantly recognisable as the product of the thriving Norwegian scene and as something wholly distinctive within that superficially restrictive musical framework. Even more remarkable was the fact that the entire record had been written and performed (with the exception of drums) by a then 17-year-old Sigurd ‘Satyr’ Wongraven: clearly a prodigious talent with an abundance of epic and perverse ideas rattling around in his head. Only eight months separate the creation of Dark Medieval Times and its successor, but the second SATYRICON album showcased a huge evolutionary leap for its creators. Where the Norwegians’ debut had heralded the arrival of a furious new creative force, The Shadowthrone was an act of consolidation and refinement, as Satyr truly blossomed as a composer of artful extremity. Even in sonic terms, it stood apart from both tradition and trend, deftly encompassing both primitive, earthbound grit and a suffocating sense of otherworldly vastness. Propelled forward at an infernal pace by the increasingly masterful drumming of Frost and graced with a cameo contribution from Emperor’s Samoth, The Shadowthrone struck the perfect, hellish chord at the exact right moment in time.

  • Formed in Oslo in 1991, Satyricon Made an Immediate and Enduring Impact When They Emerged from the Flourishing Norwegian Black Metal Scene
    Formed in Oslo in 1991, Satyricon made an immediate and enduring impact when they emerged from the flourishing Norwegian black metal scene. An idiosyncratic and fervently non-conformist creative force from the start, chief songwriter and vocalist Satyr and his percussive right-hand-man Frost made perpetual evolution and a noble disdain for the banality of much modern music essential tenets of their artistic approach. Having refined and redefined the second wave of black metal with early albums like “Dark Medieval Times” and “The Shadowthrone”, Satyricon screeched away from their peers in 1996 with the release of the widely acclaimed “Nemesis Divina”, simply one of the (!) classic ‘90s black metal albums and a mercurial blueprint for much of what would follow as the genre progressed into a new millennium. From 1999’s vicious, industrial-tinged “Rebel Extravaganza” onwards, it was obvious that Satyr and Frost had no interest in toeing the black metal party line. Instead, via noisily acclaimed triumphs like 2006’s stripped down and seething “Now, Diabolical” and its pitch-black follow-up “The Age Of Nero” in 2008, Satyricon were proudly forging their own unique path, on a never-ending quest to express the inexpressible and to tap into the dark spiritual depths of 21st century humanity. By the time the band released their self-titled album in 2013, their reputation as one of modern metal’s most vital, important and forward-thinking bands was way beyond dispute and routinely backed up by their unerring prowess and power as a live band. 2017 saw the release of their latest and greatest musical achievement, “Deep Calleth Upon Deep”.

  • Satanisk Symbolbruk I Norsk Black Metal-Kultur
    Satanisk symbolbruk i norsk Black metal-kultur Kim Forsberg Masteroppgave i religionsvitenskap Fakultet for humaniora, samfunnsvitenskap og lærerutdanning Institutt for historie og religionsvitenskap Universitetet i Tromsø Våren 2010 Satanisk symbolbruk i norsk Black metal-kultur Kim Forsberg Masteroppgave i religionsvitenskap Fakultet for humaniora, samfunnsvitenskap og lærerutdanning Institutt for historie og religionsvitenskap Universitetet i Tromsø Våren 2010 FORORD Å arbeide med en avhandling av en slik størrelse er uten tvil en tøff oppgave. I lys av mine erfaringer er jeg av den oppfatning at det ikke bare handler om å unngå å miste oversikt i andres landskap, være seg teori, metode eller empiriske størrelser. Det handler like mye om å ikke miste oversikt i eget landskap. I løpet av prosessen har jeg støtt på en mengde solide hindringer. Og mange av dem har jeg selv skapt. Men det er disse som har brakt meg videre og gitt meg grunnlag og motivasjon til å utfordre min egen forforståelse, erkjenne at enkelte valg ikke har vært de beste, forkaste mine konklusjoner og la kildematerialet snakke for seg selv. Noe som forhåpentligvis har resultert i bedre innsikt og forståelse. I etterpåklokskapens sursøte refleksjon innser man at all selvkritikk – og kritikk fra kollegaer og veileder(e) – til syvende og sist har endt i et produkt som er særdeles mye bedre enn det eventuelle resultatet av å støtte seg på startfasens umiddelbare intuisjoner og ambisjoner. Denne avhandlingen har ikke bare vært en dannelsesreise i den akademiske kunsten, men også en reise der personlig refleksjon og kritisk sans har eskalert betraktelig! Gjennom arbeidet med denne avhandlingen har jeg fått god hjelp av flere personer.
