What was performing like for female rock singers in the 20th century? How did Bowie change our concept of performer identity? Just how sexist are the lyrics in glam metal songs? Is rap as homophobic as has been thought? Can female metal singers growl as well as men? Are LGBTQ+ issues reflected in 21st century music? Did Canadian New Wave groups tackle major social issues? How do Shakespeare and Joyce use musical puns and allusions? From Indian thumri, through French opera, Irish folk songs, and pop, all the way to metal and rap, the 17 contributions gathered here will challenge and inform, while confirming that our music shapes our habits, language, ideas and gendered selves" --Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references, discographies and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: for those bazillions of women and other genders / Michelle Gadpaille and Victor Kennedy -- The mask behind the man: gender bending, sexual fluidity and the fractal subjectivity of David Bowie / Morjca Krevel -- "Gut level": the conceptualization of gender in the lyrics of Kim Gordon / Melanija Larisa FabcÌicÌ -- Bad reputation or sexism?
