    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.

  • Jovanotti È Un Personaggio Colorato, Vitale, Prezioso Di Spunti E Sollecitazioni Anche Per Chi Non Dovesse Immedesimarsi Del Tutto Nel Suo Linguaggio
    5 Prefazione L’idea della Zanichelli di affidare un robusto Dizionario del Pop-Rock a due dei no- stri più appassionati e colti critici musicali, Enzo Gentile e Alberto Tonti, ripercor- rendo decenni e decenni di storia della musica leggera nelle sue varie forme ed evo- luzioni, è un segnale importante per diversi motivi. Primo fra tutti quello di ferma- re una memoria storica che ci aiuta a comprendere l’evoluzione della società dal do- poguerra ad oggi. Sì, perché la Musica è la colonna sonora del tempo, degli umori degli anni, degli ideali di un periodo, della malinconia, degli entusiasmi o della rab- bia della società nel suo procedere. Voglio dire che si può perfettamente compren- dere lo stato d’animo di un popolo attraverso la colonna sonora che lo sta accom- pagnando in quel preciso momento storico. La Musica, dalla metà degli anni ’50 in poi, attraverso straordinari artisti ha suggerito mode, ha capovolto comportamen- ti. È stata la bandiera, grazie a molti brani, di lotte politiche, di battaglie civili, di poesie di protesta, di confessioni dolenti ma anche di esaltazione collettiva. Blues, Soul, Pop, Rock, Techno e tanti altri stili, fino ad arrivare alle più interessanti ricer- che sonore che partono da Brian Eno fino a Sylvian, Fripp e Scott Walker, sono le spericolate mutazioni di un’arte in perenne trasformazione che ascolta le pulsazio- ni della vita che corre. Per questo credo che un dizionario serio del Pop-Rock sia stato non solo un atto culturale indispensabile, ma un risarcimento, grazie alla cul- tura dei due autori e dei loro sensibili collaboratori, per tanti artisti a torto consi- derati minori e qui finalmente rivalutati e segnalati per il loro talento non ricono- sciuto tempestivamente.

  • Steve Smith Biography 2020 Steve Smith's Drumming, While Always
    Steve Smith Biography 2020 Steve Smith's drumming, while always decidedly modern, can best be described as a style that embodies the history of U.S. music. Originally drawn to the drums by hearing marching bands in parades as a child in his native Massachusetts, Smith began studying the drums at age nine, in 1963. After high school, Smith studied in Boston at the Berklee College of Music from 1972-76, where he had private lessons with both Gary Chaffee and Alan Dawson. His original love of rudimental parade band drumming is evident in his intricate solos. Likewise, his command of jazz, from New Orleans music, swing, big band, bebop, avant-garde to fusion, plus his rock drumming sensibilities and knowledge of rhythms from India allow him to push the boundaries of all styles to new heights. In 1976, Smith began his association with jazz-fusion by joining violinist Jean-Luc Ponty's group and recording the 1977 landmark fusion album Enigmatic Ocean. It was while touring with rocker Ronnie Montrose a year later that Smith was asked to join the popular rock band Journey which brought his playing to the attention of a rock audience. With Journey, Smith toured the world and recorded numerous successful albums including the immensely popular Escape (which includes the ubiquitous hit song “Don’t Stop Believin’”) and Frontiers, both of which garnered the band many Top 40 hits. Journey’s albums have sold in excess of 75 million copies worldwide to date. In 1985 Smith left Journey to pursue his original passion, jazz, and to continue his developing career as a session player, bandleader and educator.
