Musical cults of the sacred popular. 330 $a"At a time when fundamentalism is on the rise, traditional religions are in decline and postmodernity has challenged any system that claims to be all-defining, young people have left their traditional places of worship and set up their own, in clubs, at festivals and within music culture. Pop Cult investigates the ways in which popular music and its surrounding culture have become a primary site for the location of meaning, belief and identity. It provides an introduction to the history of the interactions of vernacular music and religion, and the role of music in religious culture. Rupert Till explores the cults of heavy metal, pop stars, club culture and virtual popular music worlds, investigating the sex, drug, local and death cults of the sacred popular, and their relationships with traditional religions. He concludes by discussing how and why popular music cultures have taken on many of the roles of traditional religions in contemporary society."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aPopular music$xReligious aspects 606 $aPopular music$xSocial aspects 606 $2Sociology & anthropology 615 0$aPopular music$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aPopular music$xSocial aspects. 676 $a781.64 700 $aTill$b Rupert$01621322 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811856703321 996 $aPop cult$93954546 997 $aUNINA
