Extreme Metal -- Conclusion -- List of Interviewees -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index.In this book, Stephen Graham examines the largely unexplored terrain of underground music-exploratory forms of music-making, such as noise, free improvisation, and extreme metal, that exist outside or on the fringes of mainstream culture, generally independent from both the market and from traditional high-art institutions. Until now there has been little scholarly discussion of underground music and its cultural, political, and aesthetic importance. In addition to providing a much-needed historical outline of this diverse scene, Stephen Graham focuses on the digital age, showing the underground and its fringes as based largely in radical anti-capitalist politics and aesthetics, tied to the political contexts and structures of late-capitalism. Sounds of the Underground explores these various ideas of separation and capture through interviews and analysis, developing a critical account of both the music and its political and cultural economy.Tracking popUnderground musicSocial aspectsUnderground musicPolitical aspectsUnderground musicHistory and criticismSubcultureUnderground musicSocial aspects.Underground musicPolitical aspects.Underground musicHistory and criticism.Subculture.781.64Graham Stephen680275Michigan Publishing (University of Michigan)MiUMiUBOOK9910477180703321Sounds of the underground2275219UNINA
