  Title Make Metal Small Again Type Book Whole
  Year 2023 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 193  
  Keywords  
  Abstract <<Metalbands stehen auf gewaltigen Bühnen, vor Verstärkertürmen und Tausenden wilder Fans. Sie trinken kübelweise Bier, rauschen in Tourbussen durch die Nacht und besingen Sex, Drogen und den Tod. Ihr größtes Ziel: Wacken. Alle Metalbands? Nein!

Eine kleine Metalband tingelt seit zwei Jahrzehnten über Dorffeste, Vereinsfeiern, Hochzeiten, Vernissagen und durch Geburtstagspartys. Sie hat keine Verstärker, keine Plattenfirma. Sie liefert annähernd CO2-neutralen Metal wie Pizza auf Bestellung und hätte einmal beinahe Angela Merkel beschallt. Sie singt nur übers Wetter und spielt im Sitzen, gediegen gekleidet und teetrinkend. Sie richtet sich gleichermaßen an Bildungsbürger, Mutbürger, Spießbürger. Ihr Name: Malmzeit. Ihr Genre: Kammermetal. Ihr Motto: Make Metal Small Again!

Tauchen Sie ein in die völlig irre Bandbiographie der kleinsten Metalband der Welt, verfasst von den Musikern selbst. Ein Buch voller bizarrer Ereignisse, das komplett erfunden sein könnte, wäre nicht jedes Wort wahr!>>

[Metal bands stand on huge stages, in front of amplifier towers and thousands of wild fans. They drink beer by the bucketful, rush through the night in tour buses and sing about sex, drugs and death. Your biggest goal: Wacken. All metal bands? No!

A small metal band has been playing at village festivals, club celebrations, weddings, openings and birthday parties for two decades. She has no amplifiers, no record company. It delivers almost CO2-neutral metal like pizza to order and once almost gave Angela Merkel sound. She just sings about the weather and plays while sitting, dressed dignified and drinking tea. It is aimed equally at educated citizens, courageous citizens and philistines. Her name: Malmzeit. Her genre: chamber metal. Their motto: Make Metal Small Again!

Immerse yourself in the completely crazy band biography of the smallest metal band in the world, written by the musicians themselves. A book full of bizarre events that could be completely made up if every word wasn't true!]

<<Produktbeschreibung: Ende der 1960er Jahre entwickelte sich der Hard Rock weiter zu noch härteren, schnelleren Klängen. Die ersten Alben von “Black Sabbath” gelten gemeinhin als die Geburtsstunde des Heavy Metal. Obwohl wiederholt totgesagt, ist diese Musikrichtung bis heute ungemein erfolgreich und hat sich in mehrere hundert Subgenres ausdifferenziert. Einst drückte die laute und aggressive Musik den Unmut der sozial Abgehängten am gesellschaftlichen Rand aus, doch inzwischen hören auch viele Akademiker und Wohlhabende Metal. Heute wie damals geht es für die eingefleischten Metal-Fans längst nicht nur um die Musik, sondern vielmehr um ein Lebensgefühl. Und so wird noch immer der Mythos vom Outlaw zelebriert, während die Szene schon längst mitten in der Gesellschaft angelangt ist, denn allein in Deutschland hören Millionen von Menschen diese Art Musik. Als globales Kulturphänomen zieht Heavy Metal mittlerweile mehr und mehr Aufmerksamkeit auf sich und entwickelt sich in Richtung Popkultur. Gleichzeitig beschäftigt sich die Szene oft mit Themen, die in der modernen Konsumkultur verdrängt werden. Themen wie etwa Gewalt, Angst und Tod. Jörg Scheller bringt es in der NZZ (06.07.2018) auf den Punkt: “Metal ist hart, weil das Leben hart ist und der Ponyhof nie weit entfernt vom Schlachthof. Dieser Sound fordert die Konfrontation mit der dunklen Seite, aber auch persönlichen Einsatz und Verantwortung. Erkenntnisse und Entscheidungen nimmt er niemandem ab. Stets muss Metal decodiert, interpretiert, diskutiert werden. Wie moderne Kunst ist er offen in der Bedeutung. Und genau deshalb umstritten.”

Insofern ist es keine Überraschung, dass dieses Phänomen auch an den Universitäten bereits seit mehreren Jahrzehnten von diversen Disziplinen erforscht wird. Eine Unzahl hochinteressanter Studien sind das Ergebnis. Allerdings werden diese meist ausschließlich in wissenschaftlichen Fachbüchern publiziert. Hier setzt unsere Reihe “Metalbook” an, die sich ganz gezielt an ein Sachbuchpublikum wendet und spannende Themen und Phänomene aus der Metal-Szene behandeln möchte.

Höchste Zeit also, die “Metalbooks” in unsere Buchläden zu bringen ...

[Product description: At the end of the 1960s, hard rock continued to develop into even harder, faster sounds. Black Sabbath's first albums are generally considered to be the birth of heavy metal. Although it has repeatedly been declared dead, this style of music is still extremely successful today and has differentiated itself into several hundred subgenres. The loud and aggressive music once expressed the discontent of those left behind on the social margins, but now many academics and wealthy people also listen to metal. Today, as then, for die-hard metal fans it's not just about the music, but rather about an attitude to life. And so the myth of the outlaw is still celebrated, while the scene has long since reached the heart of society, because in Germany alone millions of people listen to this type of music. As a global cultural phenomenon, heavy metal is now attracting more and more attention and developing into pop culture. At the same time, the scene often deals with topics that are suppressed in modern consumer culture. Topics such as violence, fear and death. Jörg Scheller sums it up in the NZZ (July 6, 2018): “Metal is hard because life is hard and the pony farm is never far from the slaughterhouse. This sound demands confrontation with the dark side, but also personal commitment and He doesn't take responsibility for insights and decisions from anyone. Metal always has to be decoded, interpreted and discussed.

In this respect, it is no surprise that this phenomenon has been researched by various disciplines at universities for several decades. The result is a multitude of highly interesting studies. However, these are usually published exclusively in scientific textbooks. This is where our “Metalbook” series comes in, which is aimed specifically at a non-fiction audience and aims to cover exciting topics and phenomena from the metal scene.

So it's high time to bring the ”Metalbooks" into our bookstores...]

  Title When Monsters Roar and Angels Sing: Eine kleine Soziologie des Heavy Metal Type Book Whole
  Year 2023 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 187  
  Keywords  
  Abstract <<Ehemals Musik junger Abgehängter und Outlaws, ist Heavy Metal heute mehr und mehr in der Mitte der Gesellschaft angekommen: Wohl mehr als 10 Millionen Deutsche hören Heavy Metal. Aber warum tun sie das? Was suchen und was finden sie in dieser Musik, die von Außenstehenden oft als purer Lärm empfunden wird? Warum wimmelt es im Heavy Metal nur so von Monstern und Teufeln – und wieso schweigen auch die Götter und die Engel nicht? Was erleben Metalfans, wenn sie ihre Musik hören – und welche Erfahrung treibt sie immer wieder ins Konzert? Wieso lesen sie ständig Musikzeitschriften und hören nicht auf, CDs zu kaufen? Wie ist es zu erklären, dass 40 Prozent der Metalfans behaupten, die Musik habe ihr Leben gerettet? Und warum ist Heavy Metal stärker als die Musikindustrie? Worum geht es im Heavy Metal wirklich? Diese Fragen und mehr beantwortet Hartmut Rosa in dieser kleinen Soziologie des Heavy Metal.>>

[Once the music of young socialites and outlaws, heavy metal has now become more and more mainstream in society: more than 10 million Germans listen to heavy metal. But why do they do this? What are they looking for and what do they find in this music, which outsiders often perceive as pure noise? Why is heavy metal so full of monsters and devils – and why don't the gods and angels stay silent either? What do metal fans experience when they listen to their music – and what experience drives them to go to concert again and again? Why do they keep reading music magazines and don't stop buying CDs? How can we explain the fact that 40 percent of metal fans claim that music saved their lives? And why is heavy metal stronger than the music industry? What is heavy metal really about? Hartmut Rosa answers these questions and more in this little sociology of heavy metal.]

<< Der Soziologe Hartmut Rosa überträgt in „When Monsters Roar and Angels Sing. Eine kleine Soziologie des Heavy Metal“ seine vieldiskutierte Resonanztheorie ganz konkret auf das praktische Beispiel Heavy Metal. Was suchen und was finden Menschen in dieser Musik? Und was kann die Gesellschaft von der Kulturströmung Heavy Metal lernen? “Heavy Metal ist für mich ein troziges 'Trotzdem!'”, so Hartmut Rosa. Wir haben mit dem bekennenden Metalfan zu seinem neuen Buch gesprochen.“ >>

[In “When Monsters Roar and Angels Sing. A Short Sociology of Heavy Metal,” the sociologist Hartmut Rosa specifically transfers his much-discussed resonance theory to the practical example of heavy metal. What are people looking for and what do they find in this music? And what can society learn from the heavy metal cultural movement? ”For me, heavy metal is a defiant 'Nevertheless!'" says Hartmut Rosa. We spoke to the self-confessed metal fan about his new book.]

  Title To the sources! On historical source criticism in metal studies Type Journal Article
  Year 2023 Publication Popular Music History Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 15 Issue 1 Pages 54–77  
  Keywords Metal Studies, History, Source Criticism, sonic knowledge, Styria, historical sources, metal scenes  
  Abstract Metal studies is usually considered to be a fundamentally interdisciplinary field of research. However, the disciplines that were included at its beginning (mostly sociology, cultural anthropology, musicology, and philosophy) are still theoretically dominant. As a consequence, several important research questions that do not reflect these disciplines’ epistemologies have remained unanswered to this day. To a great extent, this applies to historical research questions on metal scenes. In this respect, the author argues that metal studies could benefit from the expertise of history in general and source criticism in particular. In order to develop this argument, necessary basic traits of contemporary historical source criticism are introduced. Then, the author proceeds by individually discussing three fundamental types of sources that are structurally tied to the historical long-term processes in metal scenes: concert flyers, album covers and band T-shirts. Research into the Styrian metal scene in south-eastern Austria provides examples. To conclude, it is posited that starting from a semiotic concept of source criticism and then adapting such a concept for the specific purposes of metal studies is necessary to nurture historical awareness and the accuracy of relevant research.
