| | Death rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Death Rock synonyms include the 1980s terms Positive Punk, Batcaver, Death Punk, PIB (Person in Black), and Monochromatic Punk as well as the 1990s terms Punky-Goth, Old School Goth and 80s Goth. | | | Death Rock and Horror Punk are so similar as to sometimes confuse members of both musical subcultures. | | | Despite the similar sounding names, Death Rock, which is a sub-genre of Punk, and as such has very little in common with death metal, which is a sub-genre of heavy metal. |

| | Encyclopedia article on Death rock fashion [EncycloZine] |
| | Death rockers were and are characterized by a sexier, more homoerotic twist on the punk fashion. | | | Often, a death rocker will sport what could be called a mohawk, although the common death rock variety is starkly dissimilar to it's older punk cousin. | | | It was popularised by Siouxsie and the Banshees and other deathrock artists in the 1970s and '80s, as an offshoot from the punk rock movement, and would prove influential to the gothic fashion style developing around the same time. |

| | The Death of American Rock and Roll |
| | It had barely established itself, yet rock and roll was losing its rebellious edge and drifting into the abyss, becoming nothing more then a catchphrase for corporate-sponsored teen music with a beat. | | | By the late fifties, rock and roll had begun to move away from the raw immediacy of its early stars and become a vehicle for the banal contrivances of camera friendly faces singing songs about teenage romance. | | | British youth had followed rock and roll from its beginnings and from a distance that allowed them a clearer view of the music. |

| | But his death is part of his persona in a way that death wasn't part of the pre-posthumous persona of, say, Johnny Ace or Sam Cooke or Frankie Lymon or Marvin Gaye. | | | And the kids up there in that junior-high rock band were probably as conflicted as I was, as unsure as I where they were in relation to the "heys" and the "yous." The lead guitarist hanged himself several years later—I know nothing about it. | | | Probably most listeners, when they got to the call-and-response part, "Hey (hey) you (you) get off of my cloud," simply identified with the singer and believed they were addressing the same "you" as the Stones. |

| | The Chronicle: 5/11/2001: Is Rock 'n' Roll Dead? Only if You Aren't Listening |
| | If rock really is about freedom, the paralysis of habitual styles of listening and thinking is the way we guarantee the death of rock. | | | When rock 'n' roll first erupted in America's heartland with performers like Ike Turner, Bill Haley, and Elvis Presley, plenty of critics were plenty hostile to it. | | | Looking back to the 70's and 80's, he writes: "In many ways, it was an exhilarating time to be listening to popular music, and to be writing about rock and roll. |

| | Salon.com Books "Sentenced to Death" and "Rock 'Til You Drop" by John Strausbaugh |
| | Rock is a very limited form of music. | | | No, rock 'n' roll isn't about a counterculture, or the Hall of Fame, or how old you are, or -- least of all -- rock criticism: Rock is about people who love the rootedness of the music and love to live in its groove. | | | The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as McLeary concludes, while noble in its agenda, is just one part old age home, one part relic gift shop and three parts time warp, where aging rockers of yesteryear can forget that their heroin injections of the '60s and '70s have been replaced with biyearly prostate exams. |

| | Definition of Death rock |
| | Death Rock (also sometimes known as Deathrock or Death Punk) is a term used to distinguish conventional Gothic rock from the more punk influenced scene that sprang up on the American West Coast in the early 1980s. | | | The style is currently seeing a resurgence of sorts, as more punk influenced goth bands begin to appear as a reaction to the growing influence of EBM and Techno in goth music. | | | The style is influenced by such horror punk bands as The Misfits, who dealt in the same kind of morbid imagery that the LA Death rock groups traded in. |

| | Dying.Art.pl :: Reviews :: Paradise Lost - Gothic |
| | Death Rock meeting Death Metal is the best description one could make of the ahead-of-its-time "Gothic", one of Paradise Lost's first albums and the the true enabler of the Doom/Death movement. | | | PL have gone a long way since then - signing on to Jive and sticking to clean-vocal radio pop songs - but this change will not undermine their legacy as being the U.K.'s most grim extreme metal bands. |

| | Reason |
| | As Frank Sinatra memorably put it in 1957, rock "is sung, played, and written for the most part by cretinous goons. By means of its almost imbecilic reiteration it manages to be the martial music of every sideburned delinquent on the face of the earth." Exactly. | | | Mick Jagger, knighthood, and the death of rock 'n' roll. | | | At their best, which is to say their most decadent and sinister, the Stones never offered their fans any such safe harbor (it's no surprise that their worst music in the '60s came when they pathetically tried to ape the Beatles). |

Charles Manson, who claimed inspiration from the Beatles, used music to gain "satanic" control over his followers who went so far as murder under his command. |

| | Death rock also embraces early punk more than the initial English Goth style, allowing for bands such as The Misfits to be part of the genre. | | | Contemporary Gothic rock bands call the genre "Death Rock", to distinguish the style from contemporary goth, which has diverged significantly from the initial English Goth style style since the Sisters of Mercy. | | | All is still licensed under the GNU FDL. |

| | Goth as a movement dates to London circa 1982 where a club called the Batcave attracted a crowd that had sensibilities more morbid, more on the beauty side of decay, than punk could sustain. | | | About 10 years ago, in the beginning of the '80's, groups of teenagers began to dream themselves to death. | | | The Batcave showed horror films and played Glam rock -Gary Glitter, the Sweet-, as well as newer bands like Southern Death Cult (later the Cult). |
