The battle for Raccoon city had long since ended but the battle for mankind was just starting. Monsters straight out of a horror novel had taken over the cities. Man ceased to exist, and those who survived retreated deep into the mountains in hopes of surviving the nightmares that plagued the world. Yet no matter where man went, the monsters still find them, and all hope seemed to be at a loss. The time of man was almost over, yes there was those who fought but they were few, and losing rather…

The song I have chosen for the My Favorite Song Assignment is “Crazy On You,” by the rock group Heart. It has been my all-time favorite song since I was in high school, and was one of the first songs I learned how to play on guitar. It is a stellar example of rock music that was popular in the seventies and displays the accomplished songwriting talents of lead singer Ann Wilson, her guitar-playing sister Nancy, as well as the contributions of the other members of the band: Howard Leese, Roger…

I attended Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, 50th Anniversary Celebration concert at the Division of Fine & Performing Arts at Paradise Valley Community College.

Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the second program consisted of a mixture between songs from the albums Revolver, Magical Mystery Tour, White Album, and Abbey Road. They had a band that consisted of many vocalists, and instrumentalists and also, an…

There are two main reasons why “rock and roll” became “rock music”. The first reason was the fact that the “rock and roll” used to mean either the genre of music that was associated with the teenagers of the time, and/or it was also used to describe music with a strong connection to rhythm & blues. Yet by this point in history, things had drastically changed. Due to the influence of many social changes, rock and roll become more self-consciously artistic, and experimental, thus paving the way…

blamed heavy metal rock music and fantasy games, such as Dungeons and Dragons, for containing occult themes that lead to homicide and suicides. The Anti-Satanism Movement characterized Satanist not as ordinary deviants, but as an underground embodiment of the ultimate evil. Classifications for police and social workers were created, labeling four levels of satanic activity. The lowest level is known as dabblers, or youth that are experimenting with satanic material such as heavy metal or the…

|| Narrator's Perspective || "Thank you Brisbane (idk)!" Aisha yelled loudly to the crowd after the band took their bow. The crowd cheered in return as they ran backstage to change their clothes. "That was a good show," Kyle (it kept correcting to Luke???) said with a lopsided smile as he put his bass on a rack. "Yeah!" Allison grinned. (The Mike Wazowski's) 1 Minute 'Til Midnight was the name of their band. It consisted of Aisha, the lead singer and rhythm guitarist, Robyn, the lead…

Everything revolves around the essential idea in this case,“that punk rock is just another word for freedom,” (qtd. Patti Smith). Although there were many impacts that arose from the beginning of punk, the positive influences overcome the negative. The dramatic rise in drug use was outweighed by the legendary music that was created and the overpowering amounts of love within the people of the punk industry. From the start of punk music in the early 1960’s to present day, there have been drastic…

When the rolling-Stones first started out they had a lighter style and tone to their music. As the band grew to be a popular band, they began to change their approach to music. Their tones, guitar riffs, vocals and harmonics were becoming darker as they began to be a spotlight in the media an in front of cameras. The aesthetics of the film holds that traditional hippie, smoking, drugs, love and peace theme that is known for the time period. The band adapted their music to the events and times…

More Than What Meets The Ear When someone mentions rock music, I immediately think of loud music with guitars, drums, and an energetic vocals. I also think of it as my parent’s music that I rarely listen to. However, as I begin this course, I realize that my views are way too narrow, and that rock music is so much more than that. I thought I knew what rock and roll was, but now I know that I do not. There is so many genres and subgenres that I had not even considered when thinking about rock…
