This week on Yeah Nah Pasaran!<\/a> we talk to Kirsten Dyck about her book Reichsrock: The International Web of White-Power and Neo-Nazi Hate Music<\/a><\/em> (Rutgers University Press, 2016):<\/p>\n

Reichsrock shines a light on the international white-power music industry, the fandoms it has spawned, and the virulently racist beliefs it perpetuates. Kirsten Dyck not only investigates how white-power bands and their fans have used the internet to spread their message globally, but also considers how distinctly local white-power scenes have emerged in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Latin America, the United States, and many other sites. While exploring how white-power bands draw from a common well of nationalist, racist, and neo-Nazi ideologies, the book thus also illuminates how white-power musicians adapt their music to different locations, many of which have their own terms for defining whiteness and racial otherness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In her examination of the Australian web, Dyck takes note of pioneering white-power band Quick & The Dead which, along with ‘Open Season, White Lightning, and the especially extremist Fortress, followed the Quick & the Dead and White Noise onto the Australian scene before the end of the 1980s. In particular, Fortress\u2014led by vocalist Scott McGuinness<\/a> … \u2014has become an internationally popular white-power band’. In great news for fans of reich ‘n’ roll, Fortress has recently returned to recording and touring (Europe). On the other hand, while the ‘Southern Cross Hammerskins’ — McGuinness helped found the local franchise of ‘one of the oldest and most stable neo-Nazi organisations in the world’<\/a>, outlawed in Germany and Portugal<\/a>) — is still up and running on teh Intarwebs, for unknown reasons the websites for ‘Blood and Honour Australia’ and ‘9 Percent Productions’ are down at the moment. <\/p>\n
