Women in Music Subcultures : The Case of Metal, online, 10. 9. 2024, Brno, ČR

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Most major music subcultures (e.g. punk or hip hop) are being portrayed as largely a male affair. This is also the case of metal. The masculinity of metal has also been one of the first topic picked up by the nascent metal studies, as pioneering works of Deena Weinstein and Robert Walser testify. However, times are changing. Women are being progressively more recognised in metal, and more and more women actively participate in the subculture. Women co-shape metal in an increasingly significant way and are helping to bring in new and essential transformations. Women in global metal culture certainly cannot be overlooked. Notably, the position of women in metal should not be seen as a uniform one. It is continuously constructed in relation to the complex cultural contexts of respective time periods, regions, scenes, and musical subgenres. Individual countries have their local metal histories and specifics, which can also be reflected in the position and role of women in partial metal scenes linked to individual subgenres. These differences, as well as a whole host of other questions, strive to be opened up by the international conference. For example, what attracts women to metal? What do they consider important in metal? What problems can women face in metal? In short, the intricacies of the feminine vis-a-vis metal is an essential, yet often neglected, research problem that requires focused academic discussions. The aim of the conference is to create a platform precisely for discussing this increasingly important topic not only in the field of metal studies, but also in the broader context of the role of women in music subcultures in general.
