Title | Electric Wizards: A Tapestry of Heavy Music, 1968 to the Present | Type | Book Whole | ||
Year | 2021 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
Volume | Issue | Pages | 480 | ||
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | “It began with the Beatles’ “Helter Skelter.” It was distilled to its dark essence by Black Sabbath. And it has flourished into a vibrant modern underground, epitomized by Newcastle’s Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs. This is the evolution of heavy music. The voyage is as varied as it is illuminating: from the lysergic blunt trauma of Blue Cheer to the locked grooves of Funkadelic, the aural frightmares of Faust to the tectonic crush of Sleep, alighting on post-punk, industrial, grunge, stoner rock, and numerous other genres along the way. Ranging from household names to obscure cult heroes and heroines, Electric Wizards demonstrates how each successive phase of heavy music was forged by what came before, outlining a rich and eclectic lineage that extends far beyond the usual boundaries of heavy rock or heavy metal. It extols those who did things differently, who introduced something fresh and exciting into this elemental tradition, whether by design, accident, or sheer chance. In doing so, Electric Wizards weaves an entirely new tapestry of heavy music.” (source: Reaktion Books) |

Keywords | |||||
Abstract | “Building An Empire: The Story of Queensrÿche examines how the five original members of the band came together in the eastern suburbs of Seattle to create some of the most influential heavy metal albums of the 1980s, including the conceptual masterpiece Operation: Mindcrime. Discover how the band weathered the loss of key members, a changing industry at the turn of the century, a bitter lawsuit and numerous obstacles to continue a career that has spanned four decades and counting... Written by James R. Beach, with Brian L. Naron and Brian J. Heaton, Building An Empire: The Story of Queensrÿche examines how the band evolved from album to album, weaving interviews with the band members, managers, producers, peers, family and friends to help tell this honest, riveting tale of how five guys from Seattle's Eastside overcame the odds to become one of the most respected bands in hard rock and heavy metal. Paul Suter, the acclaimed writer from Kerrang! who broke the story on Queensrÿche in early 1983, penned the book's Foreword. Includes hundreds of rare photos and images throughout the band's career.” (source: https://nwmetalworxmusic.com/) |

Title | A Man Behind Everything? Motivational Sources of Metal Listening Among Female Audiences | Type | Journal Article | ||
Year | 2022 | Publication | Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis: Studia de Cultura | Abbreviated Journal | |
Volume | 14 | Issue | 3 | Pages | 101-121 |
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | “The term “female metalhead” may sound rather abstract. What does she look like and what does she think? Is there a typical female metalhead? This article summarizes qualitative research on woman’s motivational resources for participation in the contemporary Czech metal subculture. It discusses factors related to why women listen to metal and the role of men in this process. The research is based on seventeen semi-structured interviews with women in Czech metal. Respective research questions focus on female metalheads’ understanding of their position inside the subculture, their visual appearance, reasons for inclination to metal (e.g., partner’s influence or an attraction to the metal community), the issue of sex symbols in the metal industry, and issues of elitism and exclusivity. Results show that women within the metal subculture strike a balance between masculinity and femininity and often judge their surroundings from the perspective on these two poles. However, the primary inspiration still drives from the male perspective with its typical visual and musical characteristics.” “This article is a reworked version of Gabriela Stašová’s paper Za vším hledej muže? Motivační zdroje poslechu metalu u ženského publika (A man behind everything? Motivational sources of metal listening among female audiences) presented at the 5th Czech Conference about Metal (Brno, 2021) on the theme scenes, gender, identities. Due to its topic, the conference (with Stašová’s contribution in particular) received a broad response from the public and aroused controversy within a sector of Czech metal subculture. The controversy centered on the perception that the study of gender problematics (gender studies) and metal studies – as well as the social sciences and humanities in general-–are useless pursuits (see Miroslav Vrzal’s article in this issue)” (Source for both: this article) |

Title | Heavy Music Mothers: Extreme Identities, Narrative Disruptions | Type | Book Whole | ||
Year | 2023 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
Volume | Issue | Pages | 152 | ||
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | “Heavy Music Mothers: Extreme Identities, Narrative Disruptions is an exploration of women and heavy music and the ways in which women have historically engaged with musicking as mothers. Julie Turley and Joan Jocson-Singh, musicking mothers themselves, largely employ an ethnographic lens, foregrounded in powerful one-on-one original interviews as vignettes that narrate thematic patterns. Other chapters examine motherhood identity embedded in respective published rock music memoirs, discussions of rock performance as a site of maternal bonding, and themes that arise when heavy music mothers write about motherhood. Autoethnographic portions throughout give the book an intimate and personal tone: one such chapter presents the concept of vigilante motherhood within an auto-ethnographic context. The authors reference the book’s limitations, meditating on historically marginalized moms the authors predict and hope the focus will be on for the future. Heavy Music Mothers is a robust study of women and motherhood set within a music culture historically inhospitable to both women and mothers. This book, the first scholarly study of this topic, is just the beginning.” (Source: Rowman & Littlefield) |

Title | Meta/Metal: Open Questions in Metal Studies | Type | Book Whole | ||
Year | 2024 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | <<Produktbeschreibung: Metal Studies is a “booming” research field that has gained tremendous momentum in recent years. In this field, Heavy Metal is studied both as a cultural practice and as a musical genre. However, many of the most urgent conceptual questions have remained unanswered – especially those that lie outside the research interests of the founding disciplines of Metal Studies. This first volume of the book series “Meta/Metal” tries to answer some of these questions. The book brings together contributions by leading scholars and young experts, each of which responds to one of the conceptual desiderata that have so far arisen in Metal Studies. All contributions share a commitment to combining basic research with empirical accuracy in this research field.>> | ||||

Title | The Law of the Metal Scene: An Interdisciplinary Discussion | Type | Book Whole | ||
Year | 2024 | Publication | Abbreviated Journal | ||
Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | <<Produktbeschreibung: Metal Studies is a genuinely interdisciplinary research field. However, different specialist traditions, differing theoretical and methodological approaches, and also terminological “translation difficulties” make collaboration within the field difficult. This volume aims to explore the potential and limitations of interdisciplinary work by examining an example area – the laws of Heavy Metal – from the point of view of central disciplines. Laws are regarded as social conventions – i.e., rules that are made by human beings and are culturally stable. Examples of laws include conventions of musical language, the dress code in the metal scene, behavioural norms, and conventions in writing song lyrics. The volume includes contributions from the fields of law, social ethics, art history, religious studies, musicology, sociology, linguistics, and cultural history.>> |
