cenas culturais, grunge, Soundgarden, SeattleResumo
O presente trabalho procura entender e explorar as ideias de risco e de excesso enquanto categorias sociológicas de análise. Tomando como exemplo heurístico o movimento grunge que se inicia em Seattle em meados dos anos 1980 – e em especial a banda Soundgarden – essa digressão busca costurar as expressões estilísticas, performáticas e sonoras do grunge a partir de um conjunto complexo de condicionantes sociais e culturais que lhe são externas. Operando a partir da sociologia cultural, tentaremos situar o grunge no quadro mais amplo de profundas transformações experimentadas nas duas últimas décadas de século XX, descrevendo o papel das ansiedades geracionais para a cultura.
