Selena Rocks Ac/Dc Issue 55 AUGUST 2018 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SELENA ROCKS AC/DC This week Selena Gomez was spotted wearing the perfect mid-summer combination – a classic AC/DC t-shirt, distressed mid blue jeans and $18,000 platinum jewellery! It was plastered all over social media including Vogue to ensure fans can be inspired to achieve that effortless dress down to dress up look! We love it… Roster Alert: AC/DC ER Contact: [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ POWERAGE AT 40! Released 40 years ago, Powerage was the 5th studio album released by Australian’s Rock Royalty, AC/DC. A critic’s darling and probably the deepest AC/DC album, 'Powerage' remains the greatest testament to Bon Scott’s rock and roll poetry, particularly on underrated classics like 'Gone Shootin' and ‘'Down Payment Blues.' Powerage is Keith Richards favourite AC/DC albums, and with tracks like ‘Riff Raff’ and ‘Rock n Roll Damnation’, we kind of agree! HEY! RUMOUR HAS IT that Brian Johnson and ex-drummer Phil Rudd are working on a new album…please let it be so!

    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.

  • Louder Than War Favourites
    Albums of the Year 2018 : The Top 25 Ged Babey 9 December, 2018 As voted for by 30 of our writers, here are the Top 25 Albums of 2018. The Number One received more than twice the votes as the second place. The next ten were hotly contested with the narrowest of margins, and the rest got the same number of votes -so are in random order to be frank. But… Every one is a winner! 2018 was a great year for music and the Number 1 is no surprise… ONE IDLES Joy As An Act of Resistance (Partisan) Punk Rock reinvented and not wearing a mask of masculinity or yoke of tradition, but a wicked smile and its broken heart exposed but still beating in its chest. Punk rock which instead of calling for Anarchy and saying I Don’t Care is shouting UNITY! and LOVE IS ALL. Reviewed here by Ged Babey IDLES - DANNY NEDELKO TWO The Blinders Columbia (Modern Sky) This power trio, this band of very modern troubadours, this enlightened youth, deliver an album so explosive, so perfect, it defies any attempt at categorisation. There are odd time signatures, indefinite song structures but the tracks ebb and flow beautifully. Columbia as an album is a single piece of art as a concept. Listen, track by track, join up the dots, get the message loud and clear – England is indeed dreaming. Reviewed here by Nigel Carr The Blinders - L’etat C’est Moi [Music Video] THREE ILL : We Are ILL (Box Records) All-woman five-piece… currently based in Manchester, who highlight that quality music does not have to mean an emulation of that which has gone before.

  • Tax and AC/DC
    Tax and AC/DC Kim G C Moody FCPA, FCA, TEP September 21, 2015 Those of you who know me well will know that my first career choice was to be a music teacher. I studied and played music classically well into my teens. When I realized that my talents would likely not provide me a stable living, I switched gears and became a Chartered Accountant. I still love music – all types of music with a few exceptions – but I have a soft spot for classic rock which is often playing in my office. One of my all time favorite bands is AC/DC. Their straight-ahead blues rock with very simple (almost comical) lyrics is exactly what I like to listen to when I need to turn my brain off (which doesn’t happen very often). Accordingly, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to attend AC/DC’s concert in Edmonton on September 20, 2015. It was a cold and wet night, but that didn’t dampen the spirit of the crowd. Classic rock concerts and tax go together like wine and cheese. The last time that AC/DC was on tour in Canada was 2009 and I attended their concert in Vancouver. I wrote a blog about tax and AC/DC back then and I’m continuing that tradition here. So what was I thinking about while listening? Well, here was their set list and each song inspired a different thought about tax: 1. Rock or Bust – This is AC/DC’s lead single from their latest album.

  • Ungdoms Forhold Til Nyheter En Studie Basert På Mediedagbok
    Nordicom-Information 35 (2013) 1-2, pp. 3-20 Ungdoms forhold til nyheter En studie basert på mediedagbok Dag Elgesem & Linda Elen Olsen Abstract Ungdom i dag bruker nyhetsmedier i vesentlig mindre grad enn tidligere, viser tall for Norges Statistiske Sentralbyrå. Mens 91 % av ungdom i alderen 16-19 år brukte et nyhetsmedium en gjennomsnittsdag i 1994, var det 79 % som oppga jevnlig bruk av et nyhetsmedium i 2009. Nedgangen er størst for avis og TV, og selv om det er stor vekst i bruk av internett er ikke den større enn at det er en nedgang totalt sett i tiden ungdom bruker på nyheter. Betyr dette at ungdom er mindre interessert i nyheter enn tidligere? I 2009 og 2010 gjennomførte vi en undersøkelse med mediedagbøker blant ungdom i to videregående klasser. Her oppga informantene blant annet hva som var deres vanligste kilde til nyheter, hvilke nyheter som var mest interessante for dem, hvilke medier de fikk disse nyhetene gjennom, og hvordan de brukte ulike medier i sin hverdag. Undersøkelsen viser at holdningene til nyheter er preget av det samme ambivalente forholdet som er dokumentert i andre undersøkelser: ungdommene synes tradisjonelle nyheter er viktige og bør finnes tilgjengelige, men de prioriterer ikke selv å bruke mye tid på dem. I artikkelen diskuteres dette ”nyhetsparadokset” (Costera-Meijer) i lys av en distinksjon mellom et subjektivt interesseperspektiv på nyhetene (hva som har nyhetsverdi) og et samfunnsperspektiv som ikke er knyttet til subjektive interesse (hva som er nyhetsverdig). Selv om undersøkelsen er begrenset, gir den støtte til hypotesen om at ungdommers reelle nyhetsinteresse er større og mer sammensatt enn målingene av tidsbruk fanger inn.

    Boy George (George O'Dowd) (b. 1961) by Tina Gianoulis Boy George performing Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. in London in 2001. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Photograph by Jessica Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Hansson. Image appears under the Boy George is, like many middle-aged queers, a survivor. And, like many pop icons, Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. License Version 2.5. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles.

  • On the Efficiency of Ac/Dc: Bon Scott Versus Brian Johnson
    ON THE EFFICIENCY OF AC/DC: BON SCOTT VERSUS BRIAN JOHNSON ROBERT J. OXOBY* We use tools from experimental economics to address the age-old debate regarding who was a better singer in the band AC/DC. Our results suggest that (using wealth maximization as a measure of ‘‘better’’) listening to Brian Johnson (relative to listening to Bon Scott) resulted in ‘‘better’’ outcomes in an ultimatum game. These results may have important implications for settling drunken music debates and environmental design issues in organizations. (JEL C7, C9, D6, Z1) I. INTRODUCTION there exists a common debate.

  • Németh Gáspár: Az AC/DC Albumborítói (1975–2008)
    TIPOGRÁFIA KURZUS 2009/2010. ELS Ő FÉLÉV Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem, Bölcsészettudományi Kar Az AC/DC albumborítói (1975–2008) Németh Gáspár Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem Bölcsészettudományi Kar, 1088 Budapest, Múzeum krt. 4 ([email protected]) Bevezetés Az albumborítók tervezése talán az egyik legnehezebb feladat az aprónyomtatványok létrehozásában. Egyszerre kell megfelelni az együttes stílusának és a rajongók elvárásainak, ugyanakkor (még ismeretlen együtteseknél) figyelemfelkelt őnek, vev őcsalogatónak is kell lennie az adott borítónak. Elemzésemben bemutatom az egyes tipográfiai elemek (szövegek és képek) ismétl ődését illetve jelképpé válását az els ő, 1975- ös High Voltage cím ű lemezt ől a legutóbbi, 2008-as Black Ice -ig. 1975 High Voltage (ausztrál kiadás) (1. kép) Az els ő, csak Ausztráliában kiadott lemez megjelenése egyszer űséget tükröz, egy trafóházat láthatunk, rajta egy táblával, ami kett ős értelemmel bír: az AC/DC a zenekar neve, valamint az egyenáram/ váltóáram nemzetközi jelölése, a High Voltage pedig egyszersmind az album címe, valamint a magasfeszültségre figyelmeztet ő jelzés. Kés őbbi szemmel nézve már itt megjelentek bizonyos elemek, amelyek kés őbb az együttes védjegyévé, jelképévé váltak, különös tekintettel a villámra, mely szinte változatlan maradt az évek során, míg a bet űk változtak. Az egyszer űségre, a banda nyers zenéjére és szövegeire is utal a borító, különös tekintettel a bal alsó sarokban látható kutyára. 1. High Voltage (ausztrál verzió) – 1975 1975 T.N.T. (ausztrál kiadás) (2. kép) A második nagylemez még egyszer űbb megjelenésre törekszik, szinte mindenféle díszít ő elem elt űnik, szigorúan információközl ő szerepet kap a borító, csak a zenekar illetve az album neve jelenik meg, graffitihez hasonló kerettel, az el őző albumon is használt, groteszk, verzál bet űtípussal.
