Download or read book Heavy Metal Generations written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2012. Heavy Metal Generations is the fourth volume in the series of papers drawn from the 2012 Music, Metal and Politics international conference, which attracted scholars from around the globe, working within a diverse range of academic disciplines, to converge in Prague, Czech Republic, for three days of panel presentations, debate and conjecture about the past, present and future of metal music studies. The flavour of diversity, synchronicity and inter-disciplinarity that characterised the event can be gauged from the selection of chapters presented in this volume. We hope this collection contributes to the rising tide of academic work that serves to broaden and deepen heavy metal music studies’ intellectual and aesthetic grounds, critical agenda and political value by undermining old certainties and suggesting new horizons in the context of current social conditions, politics and society.
Download or read book Melancology written by Scott Wilson and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-26 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Melancology addresses the notorious musical genre black metal as a negative form of environmental writing that ‘blackens’ the cosmos. This book conjures a new word and concept that conjoins ‘black’ and ‘ecology’: melancology, a word in which can be heard the melancholy affect appropriate to the conjunction. Black metal resounds from the abyss and it is precisely only in relation to its sonic forces that the question of intervention in the environment arises in the articulation of melancology with ethics. That is, in deciding ‘which way out’ we should take, in deciding with what surpluses to dwell, with what waste, what detritus or decay in a process of unbinding with sonic forces that traverse an earth choking in wealth and death. The book thus provides a provocative and challenging contribution both to popular and intellectual debates on ecology.

Book Synopsis Tonight It’s a World We Bury by : Bill Peel
Download or read book Tonight It’s a World We Bury written by Bill Peel and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tonight It’s a World We Bury explores a range of tendencies central to black metal and uncovers their potential as critiques of capitalism. Tonight It's a World We Bury is a radical re-writing of the history and politics of black metal music. Challenging the commonly-held perception that black metal is a genre of the right — full of wannabe Vikings, Nazis, skinheads and other unsavoury characters — Tonight It's a World We Bury looks at an array of black metal artists to re-affirm the genre as radically anticapitalist, revolutionary and left-wing. Utilizing an eclectic range of black metal bands, including Darkthrone, Burzum, Liturgy and Deathspell Omega, and taking in the works of Marx, Nietzsche, Deleuze and more, Tonight It's a World We Bury is a book on black metal like no other.

Download or read book Helvete written by Helvete Journal and published by punctum books. This book was released on 2016-12-14 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Metal Theory is noise. Lacking one clear manifesto or position, it fails to become an elite circle. It is amplified and transmitted electronically: through instruments, lo-fi recordings, internets, and print-on-demand publishers...yet rather than a clear direction of progress we glean only its subversive raw dissonance, disruptions, animalistic screams, resonating disturbances, high-pitched feedback, primitive growls, and its atmospheric statics, hisses, and drones. Black Metal Theory refuses to be hi-fi. It quenches its sonic thirsts from primordial-ditch stews that resemble the dark sludge of recently melted snowfall - pristine white flakes transmuted into a tumultuously sexy and delicious mixture of trash and dirt and ash and poison that swirls and splashes in ditches before seeping into the underground. Our ears drink this disharmonious black bile and our bodies suspend in its intoxicating formless complexities. The third issue of Helvete, "Bleeding Black Noise," features artwork and essays that focus on the sonic aspects of Black Metal, specifically its interactions with Noise - the interruptions, creations, and destructions of signals as black noise. "Bleeding Black Noise" is a revision of Steven Parrino's statement, "My relation between Rock and visual art: I will bleed for you." In this issue, Rock is replaced with Noise, and Bleeding is celebrated as a release of the Black Noise - raw energy and formless potential. The essays and art portfolios included here experiment with sonic and conceptual feedback, as well as the way that black noise works through feedback as a process, resonating as background hums or drones, and cascading in foregrounded screams.

Download or read book Ancestral North written by Ross Hagen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2024-04-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancestral North: Spirituality and Cultural Imagination in Nordic Ritual Folk Music offers a detailed exploration of Nordic ritual folk music, a music scene focused on the revival of ancient folkways and archaic music that has found remarkable popularity around the globe. Once the domain of Viking reenactors and neopagan practitioners, the niche sonic and visual aesthetics of this music have found widespread visibility through a new generation of popular films, television series, and video games. The authors argue that many of these musical and media products connect with longstanding cultural attitudes about the Nordic region that conceive of it as wild, exotic, and dangerous, while also being a place of honor, community, and virtue. As such, the Nordic region and its music often becomes a vessel for reactionary escapes from all manner of modern discontentment. However, the authors also posit that spending time re-creating the music of an imaginary past offers participants the possibility for engagement and re-enchantment in the multicultural present.

Download or read book A Resonant Ecology written by Max Ritts and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Resonant Ecology, Max Ritts traces how sound’s integration into the environmental politics of Canada’s North Coast has paved the way for massive industrial expansion. While conservationists hope that the dissemination of whale songs and other nature sounds will showcase the beauty of local wildlife for people around the world, Ritts reveals how colonial capitalism can co-opt sonic efforts to protect the coast. He demonstrates how digital technologies allow industry to sonically map new shipping lanes and facilitate new ways of experiencing sound—premised not on listening, but on sound’s exploitable status as a data resource. By outlining how sound can both perpetuate and refuse capitalist colonialism, Ritts challenges the idea that the sonic realm is inherently liberatory and reveals sound to be a powerfully uncertain object. Through a situated geographical approach, he makes the case that only a decolonial and multigenerational environmental politics can counter the false promise of “sustainable marine development” held up by industry and the state.

Book Synopsis Escape Philosophy by : Roy Christopher
Download or read book Escape Philosophy written by Roy Christopher and published by punctum books. This book was released on 2022 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physical body has often been seen as a prison, as something to be escaped by any means necessary: technology, mechanization, drugs and sensory deprivation, alien abduction, Rapture, or even death and extinction. Taking in horror movies from David Cronenberg and UFO encounters, metal bands such as Godflesh, ketamine experiments, AI, and cybernetics, Escape Philosophy is an exploration of the ways that human beings have sought to make this escape, to transcend the limits of the human body, to find a way out. As the physical world continues to crumble at an ever-accelerating rate, and we are faced with a particularly 21st-century kind of dread and dehumanization in the face of climate collapse and a global pandemic, Escape Philosophy asks what this escape from our bodies might look like, and if it is even possible.

Book Synopsis Trollpeo The Green Knight by : G'Ronnie
Download or read book Trollpeo The Green Knight written by G'Ronnie and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arch Thaumaturge had argued about answering a troll’s prayer. One renegade angel secretly saved an abandoned baby left to die. This human infant was enhanced with incredible abilities through a strange concoction mixed with angelic blood, and the child miraculously transformed into a green troll. The baby was taken to a barren troll in the troll kingdom. She made a covenant with the renegade angel to raise the infant as her own, and to help him become a great tracker. Having mastered his tracking skills, he became known for his ability to find the impossible. The people claimed him to be the greatest investigator in the kingdom. A powerful witch thought that by killing his parents, she would be able to stop him. But she was wrong. The renegade angel’s fellow Arch Thaumaturge Gatbam traveled to the future to persuade the mortal named Dr. Paul Coldchase—a relentless, strong-willed, very principled coroner—to travel to the dark ages. He assured him that his excellent medical skills would be appreciated, regardless of his race. Sometime later, he was murdered. This medical examiner was resurrected, and he changed his forename to Phantom. Dr. Phantom Coldchase teamed up with Trollpeo. Thus began the dynamic chronicles of the greatest detectives: Trollpeo Trolliceo Greenthumb, the Green Knight, and Dr. Phantom Coldchase, Medical Examiner.
