"Heavy Mäddel, nothing in Schäddel. With this award which Popper attempted brats in my class at the end of the 80 regularly bring me up the wall. Today we know: The Metal is a science in itself. Joey DeMaio, the (cross) head of Manowar, has a doctorate in Musical Arts, Brian May of Queen such are in astrophysics and bands from the more progressive realms of the genre as Rush or Dream Theater quite capable of a song on music theory drawing board to . design
Nevertheless dignity in a survey asked the question, "what do you associate with the term 'Heavy Metal'," ranked the answers "aggression", "excessive Beer consumption, "" noise "or even" the devil "certainly well before the assessment" important cultural phenomenon. "
This is wrong: When Congress "Metal Matters - Heavy Metal as a culture and the world" at the Institute for Media Research at the University of Art Braunschweig (HBK) dis-cussed by Thursday 3 June, to Saturday, June 5, more than a hundred participants on the subject of metal and its significance.

Nohr of the HBK and Herbert Schwaab think of the University of Regensburg - both during the 80's socialized in the metal. "There is a lot of popular culture driven research is often parked in the political background of youth movements. Because it conforms to the heavy metal is there, often dismissed as dull and left aside, "says Nohr. "We are dealing here with a cultural phenomenon that has held for over three generations. . They must be of looking at "The
identified by Nohr cliché, is the Heavy-Metal" nothing to bring cultural studies "has been disproved beyond reasonable doubt: 20 scientists from Germany, Austria and Switzerland refereed - in front of a genre common wall of Marshall amplifiers - to fan culture, aesthetics, economics and politics of Heavy Metal. Julia Eckel said merging the "textile identifiability" by supporters of the typical metal band studded with patches "cowls" said denim jackets and ribbon-shirts, de-Ren iconography archaic pre-modern and science fiction worlds. Christian Krumm, Holger Schmenk and Franz Horváth illuminated the emergence of major regional metal scene in the Ruhr region and Hungary during the 80s. Winner Tobias Ling is the mandatory formal codes for residents of the metal universe before.
What is fresh and new about the metal in the 42nd year after its creation still - Depending on whether the 1968 album by Blue Cheer "Vincebus Erupttum" or Black Sabbath's debut in 1970 with her hitherto unheard in force and will evaluate volume vorgetragenem amalgam of blues and psychedelic rock as the first sign of life - is between the Harz and Heide, showed the program: On Friday played the Brunswick band Damn and head shot in a downtown bar absolutely first league compatible thrash and death metal.

Kiss, 31.5., O2 World Hamburg
This is the dream of every rock journalist: relive the exhilaration of the musical deflowering. Once again, the record store and listen on headphones are the first tackt Rock N 'Roll. Once again, the magical moment of the first live show experience; when the room lights go off and the lights, and to know that this is my thing.
A train has left twenty years, can be difficult for epoxy products. Therefore, the following experiment: A rock called the novice is still unknown stimuli exposed and studied his reaction. And which band would be better suited for this experiment as the masters of both sides Kerzeanzündens: Kiss.
subject is a newspaper colleague, graduate cultural studies and arty. Frequently they took me already to cultural events, most recently No Exit by Sartre - as a dance theater. Hamburg plays at the O2 World on arrival just the opening band Five and The Red One. The five Ulmer gamble appealing early nineties alternative rock act here but as harmless as high school students on the Raucherhof. Judgement of the colleague: "The stage performance so funny." The death sentence for any rock band.

The huge black curtain with the band logo falls. float in the bright light staring Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Paul Stanley from sparkling rhinestones and gleaming studs, their faces painted like demons, samurai, guitar-playing by hydraulic of Eric Singer drums away on the huge stage. The fellow looked incredulous, fascinated.
Even the fourth song "Firehouse Simmons draws its fire Puck number from. A red flame comes out of his mouth. "Better than dance, right?" "Different, but good," was the reply.

Mrs missed nothing: "Ace who" Unlike the neighbors bothered by not on AC / DC T-shirt of a young concert audience - it was twenty years of this faux pas is a safe method would be to capture two blue eyes, But this train is ..., oh, they already know. Well as Eric Singer dares "Beth" the Erkennungsson his predecessor Peter Criss to sing, they are not outraged.
But even as the first time since the Kiss Hot In The Shade Tour 1990 - is sing "Lick it Up" it moves only limited - it was the last with drummer Eric "The Fox" Carr.
The colleague is interested in far more for singer Paul Stanley (58), who worked tirelessly running his hands through auftoupierte black hair, pursed lips and in obscene poses throws - Stanley probably has a similar number of variations to wiggle his bottom, like an Eskimo words for snow over. "Outrageous, but friendly and very confident," is the female verdict. Particular joy comes to the end of the concert, as Stanley is moving at a cable car to a small circular stage in the middle of the hall - "Hehe, look, which rotates too" - and "I Was Made For Lovin 'You" sings " I even know. " When Stanley returned flying over our heads, to meet him some beer mug. They bounce off one of his hairy, muscular chest still. Stanley clenches his fist and another salvo of cannon goes off. Understand what's funny, some women are so under-friendliness. In the confetti rain on closer "Rock And Roll All Nite" comes on even emotion: "Oh how beautiful" she says, while pieces of paper raining down from the sky like rose petals on their sweat-shiny face. She beams: "This was suuuuper." Defloration completed, successful experiment.
The next level of escalation will be on 4 his July, the brutal death metal Deicide Meier in the Music Hall. Let's see what the colleague says. But first is "The Seagull" by Chekhov, directed by Jürgen Gossch on the cultural exchange plan. Let's see if it's the first time I'm hurt.
