" Critics praised the film's black and white cinematography, musical score and sense of humor, with IndieWire comparing Joanna Kulig's performance as Zula to a young Jeanne Moreau: "an alcoholic hellcat who thrusts herself into the embraces of other men – quite literally, in a reckless spree around the dance-floor of a rock'n'roll club.

That same spirit of discovery led people to Kælan Mikla's intoxicating coldwave, Abominor's vicious black/death, Dulvitund's abrasive take on dark ambient, the Vintage Caravan's soulful throwback rock'n'roll, and Goresquad's pinch harmonic-perfect brand of old-school death metal (to say nothing of Gloryride's exuberant power metal or Narthraal's death metal fantasy world).

It's speculated that Freed bore the brunt of the committee's ill will because unlike the squeaky-clean Dick Clark, Freed was a heavy smoker, a jive talker, a rock'n'roll lifer who freely associated with black musicians and refused to betray his own principles by signing an affidavit swearing he'd never accepted payola.

Photo by M Tarvainen This article originally appeared on Noisey UK. There are two types of people in this world: Those who think Alex Turner's 2014 Brit Awards acceptance speech was righteous, charming, "everything rock'n'roll is meant to be," and those who think it was the magnum opus of a bell-end.

Ever the gentleman, Lemmy sat down over a drink and a game of video poker to speak on his love for the the signature Rickenbacker bass guitar, auditioning for Hawkwind, his mother's love for lap-steel, and how seeing the Beatles for the first time changed his life—and by extension, changed rock'n'roll forever.

It was, as NME called it at the time, "the nastiest, healthiest and funniest piece of press in the history of rock'n'roll habits" Then in 1977, after 12 hell-raising issues, it went out with the same immediacy from which it began, ceasing to exist just because Perry feared it would soon become absorbed into the mainstream press.

No matter what their bigoted elders may have thought, the youth of America was obsessed with rock'n'roll—and that fact, coupled with the increase in availability of cheap 45 RPM records and radio's shift to the Top 40 format, ensured that with every copy of "The Twist" they snapped up, the more the record labels' wallets bulged.

Blackrat has clearly studied the Midnight doctrine of lust, filth, and sleaze, but tone down the rock'n'roll swagger in favor of a nasty punk sneer, ugly shards of ancient thrash, and an eerie First Wave feel (with evil Tormentor vibes all over the place) that only emphasizes how rough and nasty their riffs—and perfectly hollow their cardboard drum sound—aim to be.

Last year, I stumbled across a presentation on Soviet X-ray audio recordings at Brooklyn's Morbid Anatomy Museum, and was enthralled by the tale of the clever, resourceful young people—the stilyagi—who found a way to get their hands on contraband jazz and rock'n'roll during the decades when Stalin and his enforcers kept an iron grip on hated (and illegal) Western music.

Whether you're a Devil's Blood acolyte looking for a fix in former member Oeds Beydals' guitar acrobatics, a Dutch music aficionado keeping tabs on the members of proto-punks Gewapend Beton and doom legion Mühr, or simply an eager riffhound with an ear for hot new-old sounds, the waves that these sweaty, soulful rock'n'roll veterans have been making are impossible to ignore.

The iconic AC/DC frontman only spent six years with the legendary Aussie rock'n'roll dirtbags before his untimely death, but during those six years, he sang on most of their best albums: Highway to Hell, Powerage, If You Want Blood, You've Got It, High Voltage, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, Let There Be Rock, and T.N.T. You know who's probably never even been to Australia?

It was pretentious and centered around the idea that rock'n'roll was this immortal genre, just as it was becoming far less interesting than other new and innovative musicians who had started releasing music – rappers like Young Thug and Tyler, the Creator, internet-savvy pop producers like AG Cook and SOPHIE; and really, a lot of the acts we can now call today's megastars: Kendrick Lamar, Solange, Dev Hynes and Frank Ocean.

"I've Been Lost" by Such Hounds, their first single from their soon-to-be released Strangers LP. For some, "I've Been Lost" sounds like "Tom Petty wading through bong water" which probably means bad (side note, bong rock would probably be a good way to describe their sound) and for others, there are definite sonic similarities to whatever 60s and 70s rock'n'roll band you've been thinking of lately.

Here, for example, is an excerpt of Yiannopoulos's infamous piece justifying some of the hateful, vile, and threatening images that were filling Twitter in 2016: Just as the kids of the 60s shocked their parents with promiscuity, long hair and rock'n'roll, so too do the alt-right's young meme brigades shock older generations with outrageous caricatures, from the Jewish "Shlomo Shekelburg" to "Remove Kebab," an internet in-joke about the Bosnian genocide.

In addition to slinging the axe and writing lyrics for Anthrax, one of thrash metal's original Big Four (and the only East Coast-based member of the quartet, NYC holler!) and playing guitar for crossover thrash enfants terribles Stormtroopers of Death, Scott Ian is also the proud owner of a truly magnificent goatee, and a budding TV star: he's a regular talking head for VH1, and has appeared on a rock'n'roll reality show with Ted Nugent and Sebastian Bach.

In these days of heavy music thriving in abundance nearly everywhere you look, rock'n'roll fans need not look far to find anything that suits their niche tastes, but unfortunately, it's also easy to see that there's a real lack of music that gets stuck in your head; music that gets a thousand metalheads to put their fist in the air and sing along to a chorus in unison; music that permeates your memories so hard that even a bar or two will remind you of exactly what you were doing that year, who you were in love with, and what mischief you and your friends were getting into.
