Title Breaking the Law? Recht, Moral und Klang in der steirischen Heavy Metal-Szene seit 1980 Type Book Whole
Year 2024 Publication (up) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 399
Keywords
Abstract <<

Produktbeschreibung: Im Heavy Metal wird seit jeher der Mythos gepflegt, die gesamte Szene bewege sich außerhalb aller gesellschaftlicher und kultureller Normen. Paradigmatisch wird dieses Ideal in dem Klassiker “Breaking the Law” von Judas Priest zum Ausdruck gebracht. Obwohl sich diese Vorstellung als wichtiger Teil des Identitätsfundaments der Metal-Szene etablierte, gibt es bis heute keine Forschungen, die nach dem Zusammenhang von Rechtsbezug, Szene-Ethos und Sound im Heavy Metal fragen.

In der vorliegenden Pionierstudie untersucht der Kulturhistoriker Peter Pichler, wie die lokale Metal-Szene in Graz und der Steiermark in den letzten 40 Jahren durch diese Aspekte geprägt wurde. Dem Autor gelingt der Nachweis, dass man die Entstehung der individuellen “Klanglichkeit” des steirischen Metals durch das kulturelle Zusammenspiel von Recht, Moral und Sound erklären kann.>>

[Product description: In heavy metal, the myth has always been maintained that the entire scene operates outside of all social and cultural norms. This ideal is paradigmatically expressed in the classic “Breaking the Law” by Judas Priest. Although this idea established itself as an important part of the metal scene's foundation of identity, to date there is no research that asks about the connection between legal reference, scene ethos and sound in heavy metal.

In this pioneering study, cultural historian Peter Pichler examines how the local metal scene in Graz and Styria has been shaped by these aspects over the last 40 years. The author succeeds in proving that the emergence of the individual “sound” of Styrian metal can be explained by the cultural interplay of law, morals and sound.]

Title Meta/Metal: Open Questions in Metal Studies Type Book Whole
Year 2024 Publication (up) 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 (up) 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.>>

Title Enseñar a transgredir: Metal feminista, a través de la investigación-acción participativa, como herramienta artística de liberación y pedagógica en el aula Type Book Whole
Year 2023 Publication (up) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 528
Keywords
Abstract Esta tesis presenta, en primer lugar, una indagación profunda sobre las manifestaciones feministas en la música y cultura metal, desde un abordaje transdisciplinar y multidimensional. En tal sentido, el texto ofrece un análisis crítico exhaustivo de los diversos discursos, procesos relacionales y prácticas corporales del metal feminista en diferentes contextos del Norte y el Sur Global, desde un enfoque interseccional, psicosociológico y pedagógico feminista. Tal análisis está basado en entrevistas en profundidad realizadas con 21 bandas feministas de metal de diferentes países, 32 letras de canciones y 19 portadas de álbumes. Así como otras fuentes complementarias, tales como imágenes promocionales, declaraciones de las bandas en medios, webs/perfiles promocionales, y perfiles personales de las/los artistas en redes sociales. De otro lado, esta tesis, entra en conversación con el campo más amplio de las artes —de forma comparativa— ofreciendo una identificación de los vínculos y distancias del metal feminista con el arte feminista de los 70. Delinea, por otro lado, un patrón didáctico observable en la práctica metal extrema feminista, que permite su conceptualización como praxis liberatoria y, finalmente, como un ejercicio bastardo de a/r/t/ografía ritual social.

En segundo término, el texto muestra el desarrollo de un proyecto de investigación-acción participativa (IAP) internacional, con la comunidad feminista del metal. La IAP —desarrollada en entornos virtuales por un grupo de 36 personas (artistas, activistas y académicas) integrantes de las escenas de metal— ofrece un diagnóstico social sobre las barreras de género que afectan la participación en las diferentes escenas de metal, en contextos del Norte y el Sur Global. Dicho diagnóstico social está desarrollado a partir de una revisión bibliográfica panorámica y una encuesta virtual global, en la que han participado 32 países. Al tiempo, la IAP ha generado varios productos destinados a la intervención/devolución comunitaria de la información obtenida.

Por ende, se ofrecen en este texto: un artículo colectivo, una web, un vídeo-hechizo en consonancia con las estrategias simbólicas del metal feminista, y la serie de vídeos explicativos No Me Toques el Ampli. Con todo, el diseño del proyecto IAP ha conseguido informar de forma rigurosa sobre la clave contextual del fenómeno de estudio objeto de esta disertación —el metal feminista—, al tiempo que ha contribuido a realizar un aporte en pro de los intereses de los sujetos/comunidades de estudio. Por último, esta tesis muestra el desarrollo de una experiencia piloto en el ámbito educativo, que ha tenido como fin explorar la potencialidad que tienen las estrategias y técnicas artísticas del metal feminista identificadas, como herramientas en el marco de las pedagogías feministas restaurativas.

En conclusión, este estudio contribuye a la comprensión de las expresiones artístico-políticas feministas dentro del campo especializado de los estudios del metal y, del arte feminista, en un sentido más amplio. Asimismo, ha servido al impulso de las reivindicaciones feministas en las escenas artísticas del metal, haciendo permeables los límites de la investigación académica —en particular dentro del campo del metal— mediante un enfoque metodológico socialmente comprometido. De otro lado, realiza un aporte a las pedagogías feministas restaurativas, a través de la exploración de una fórmula didáctica innovadora, centrada en el uso de nuevas herramientas y técnicas. En un sentido más amplio y último término, este estudio pone un granito de arena a la empresa utópica de la llamada ecología de saberes —a partir de la interacción de prácticas científicas, prácticas artísticas subalternizadas y saberes encarnados— como una fuente de conocimiento valioso, para activar un pensamiento científico interconectado, siguiendo a Boaventura de Sousa Santos (2010, pp. 52-53).

[This dissertation presents, first, an in-depth perusal of feminist artistic manifestations in metal music and culture from a transdisciplinary and multidimensional approach. In this sense, the text offers an exhaustive critic analysis of the diverse discourses, relational processes, and bodily practices of feminist metal in different contexts of the Global North and South from an intersectional, psycho-sociological, and pedagogical feminist approach. The analysis is based on in-depth interviews conducted with 21 feminist metal bands from different countries, 32 song lyrics and 19 album covers. As well as other complementary sources, such as promotional images, statements of the bands in the media, promotional websites/profiles, and personal profiles of the artists in social networks. Likewise, this dissertation, enters conversation with the broader field of the arts —in a comparative way— offering an identification of the links and distances of feminist metal with feminist art of the 1970s. On the other hand, it delineates a didactic pattern observable in extreme feminist metal music, which allows its conceptualization as a liberatory praxis and, finally, as a bastard exercise in socioritual a/r/t/ography.

Secondly, the text explains the development of an international participatory action-research (AR) project with the feminist metal community. The AR — developed in virtual environments by a group of 36 people (artists, activists, and academics) from the metal scenes— offers a social diagnosis of the gender barriers that affect participation in the different metal scenes in contexts of the Global North and South. This social diagnosis is based on a panoramic literature review and a global survey in which 32 countries participated. At the same time, the AR project has generated several products aimed at community intervention/dissemination of the information obtained.

Thus, this thesis offers the following: a collective article, a web page, a video-spell in line with the symbolic strategies of feminist metal, and the series of explanatory videos Don't Touch My Amp. All in all, the design of the AR project has succeeded in rigorously informing the contextual key to the study phenomenon object of this dissertation —feminist metal— while contributing to the interests of the subjects and community of study. Finally, this dissertation shows the development of a pilot experience in the educational field, which aimed to explore the potential of the identified feminist metal art strategies and techniques as tools within the framework of restorative feminist pedagogies.

Therefore, this study contributes to the understanding of feminist artisticpolitical expressions within the specialized field of metal studies, and feminist art in a broader sense. It has also served to advance feminist claims in the metal scenes, permeating the boundaries of academic research —particularly within the field of metal— through a methodological approach socially committed. It also contributes to feminist restorative pedagogies by exploring an innovative didactic formula focused on using new tools and techniques. In a broader sense and lastly, this study contributes to the utopian enterprise of the so-called ecology of knowledge —based on the interaction of scientific practices, subalternized artistic practices and embodied knowledge— as a source of valuable knowledge, which activates an interconnected scientific thought, following Boaventura de Sousa Santos (2010, pp. 52-53).]
