Tapping into a vital and lively topic of teaching, research and wider cultural interest, and employing diverse methodologies across musicians, fans and religious groups, this book is an important contribution to the growing field of religion and popular music studies.
Автор: Marcus Moberg Название: Christian Metal: History, Ideology, Scene ISBN: 1472579844 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781472579843 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 126720.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Christian metal has always defined itself in contrast to its non-Christian, secular counterpart, yet it stands out from nearly all other forms of contemporary Christian music through its unreserved use of metal’s main musical, visual, and aesthetic traits. Christian metal is a rare example of a direct combination between evangelical Christianity and an aggressive and highly controversial form of popular music and its culture. Christian Metal: History, Ideology, Scene is the first full exploration of the phenomenon of Christian metal music, its history, main characteristics, development, diversification, and key ideological traits from its formative years in the early 1980s to the present day. Marcus Moberg situates it in a wider international evangelical cultural environment, accounts for its diffusion on a transnational scale, and explores what religious meanings and functions Christian metal holds for its own musicians and followers. Engaging with wider debates on religion, media and popular culture, Christian Metal: History, Ideology and Scene is a much-needed resource in the study of religion and popular music.

Описание: The evidence of death and dying has been removed from the everyday lives of most Westerners. Yet we constantly live with the awareness of our vulnerability as mortals. Drawing on a range of genres, bands and artists, Mortality and Music examines the ways in which popular music has responded to our awareness of the inevitability of death and the anxiety it can evoke. Exploring bereavement, depression, suicide, violence, gore, and fans’ responses to the deaths of musicians, it argues for the social and cultural significance of popular music’s treatment of mortality and the apparent absurdity of existence.

Автор: Lau Название: Popular Music in Evangelical Youth Culture ISBN: 1138109681 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781138109681 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 47970.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Christian churches and groups within Anglo-American contexts have increasingly used popular music as a way to connect with young people. This book investigates the relationships between evangelical Christianity and popular music, focusing particularly on electronic dance music in the last twenty years. Author Stella Lau illustrates how electronic dance music is legitimized in evangelical activities by Christians' discourses, and how the discourses challenge the divide between the 'secular' and the 'sacred' in the Western culture.
Unlike other existing books on the relationships between music cultures and religion, which predominantly discuss the cultural implications of such phenomenon, Popular Music in Evangelical Youth Culture examines the notion of 'spirituality' in contemporary popular electronic dance music. Lau's emphasis on the sonic qualities of electronic dance music opens the door for future research about the relationships between aural properties of electronic dance music and religious discourses. With three case studies conducted in the cultural hubs of electronic dance music - Bristol, Ibiza and New York - the monograph can also be used as a guidebook for ethnographic research in popular music.

Автор: Antti-Ville Karja Название: Intersections of the Popular and the Sacred in Music ISBN: 1350052841 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350052840 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 89760.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Using a primarily theoretical lens, this book examines the interrelations of the ‘popular’ and the ‘sacred’ in the context of music. Antti-Ville Karja discusses conventional forms of ‘popular music’, and questions how dimensions of the ‘popular’ are present in different musics. He also looks at how the ‘sacred’ helps in reconceptualising these dimensions, and provides an in-depth cultural analysis of music. Intersections of the Popular and the Sacred in Music considers topics such as: music in relation to its mythological etymological roots; the elevation of certain individuals to ‘star’ positions, and the beliefs and values of their aficionados and fan(atic)s; music-related subcultures and their belief systems; and forms of religious music and their interrelations to definitions of the ‘popular’, with an emphasis on gospel, klezmer, reggae and Muslim rap. Karja also looks at the politics of the ‘popular’ and the ‘sacred’ in the context of music, and assesses how certain musics became intertwined with national and ethnic identities He goes on to ask why generic labels such as ‘black music’ are implicated in the sanctification of ‘race’ with its economical repercussions. Featuring several under researched yet relevant topics, this book is essential reading to courses in religion, musicology, sociology and cultural studies.
Автор: Georgina Gregory, Mike Dines Название: Exploring the Spiritual in Popular Music: Beatified Beats ISBN: 1350198706 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350198708 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 31670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book highlights how the diverse nature of spiritual practices are experienced and manifest through the medium of popular music.
At first glance, chapters on Krishnacore, the Rave Church phenomenon and post-punk repertoire of Psychic TV may appear to have little in common; however, this book draws attention to some of the similarities of the nuances of spiritual expression that underpin the lived experience of popular music. As an interdisciplinary volume, the extensive introduction unpacks and clarifies terminology relating to the study of religion and popular music.
The cross-disciplinary approach of the book makes it accessible and appealing to scholars of religious studies, cultural studies, popular music studies and theology. Unlike existing collections dealing with popular music and religion that focus on a specific genre, this innovative book offers a range of music and case studies, with chapters written by international contributors.
