Reflecting the continued expansion of popular music studies, the changing music industry and the impact of new technologies, Roy Shuker explores key subjects that shape our experience of music, including music production, musicians and stars, musical texts, music video and MTV, audiences and fans, scenes and subcultures and music as political activism and ideology.
This heavily revised and updated fourth edition includes:
the role of social network sites, marketing and music retail
the decline of the traditional model of the sound recording companies
music genres, cover songs and the album canon
case studies of artists such as Robert Johnson, the Sex Pistols, Shania Twain and Lady Gaga
a comprehensive discography, based around musical metagenres, along with suggestions for further reading, listening and viewing.
The book now has an accompanying website, with focus questions and further study activities for each chapter, additional case studies and links to relevant websites.
Roy Shuker is Associate Professor in Media Studies at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. His previous publications include Understanding Popular Music Culture (3rd Edition, 2008) and Popular Music: The Key Concepts (3rd Edition, 2012).
