Resumo: |
The present dissertation attempts to investigate the thematic deployments within Legião Urbana‟s work, as well as the process of reception of this work, by the public of this Brasilia‟s band. With such aims, the research creates an academic discussion, gathering information also from the existing literature investigating the Brazilian rock and roll of the 80‟s, which, in fact, attributes the repercussion of this style to producers and recording companies. Such analysis, of a merchandised, aesthetical and journalistic nature, interpret the rock and roll movement in a static way, with no malleability or stresses, as if the above referred agents would have maintained the bands fully submitted to their intentions. Under such point-of-view, rock and roll groups would have offered no resistance to the impositions of those agents. In the studies performed under such perspective, a secondary role is attributed to the public who identified itself with the style, in the process of electronic music diffusion. However, the present dissertation, guided by the previously mentioned aims, and also by the theoretical assumptions of the cultural studies, goes after other interpretations. For this, it will discuss the participation of some youth movements in rock and roll issues, throughout the second half of the 20th Century - this being a necessary dialogue, face to the association of this musical style and the youth, an inherent factor to Renato Russo‟s trajectory, in Brasília, where his contacts with the punk culture, his social circle and the creation of garage bands have led to the arising of Legião Urbana. Subsequently, the research analyzes the experience of the Group within the phonographic market and the media, observing the stresses that the band was forced to cope, in order to keep active within the cultural assets market. After this initial path, the dissertation tries an interpretation, among different possible ones, regarding to the continuities and changes occurred in the studio discography of the group. This interpretation, by exposing fragments of Renato Russo‟s vision of the world, strongly addressed to the youth of his time, enables to discuss the consumption and reception of his songs by a parcel of his public, in middle of a bunch of possibilities in place, in the daily existence of the band. The sources used by the research are Renato Russo‟s interviews, songs, and images contained in all the studio albums, plus verbal testimonies of people who were young in the 80‟s and 90‟s, and who have followed the career of these young men from Brasília. The work with such diversity of sources, besides to question the stiffness imposed by part of the literature about the Brazilian rock and roll, opens new ways to some interpretative paths, whether for an analysis of Legião Urbana‟s work, or to analyze the reception and consumption processes, by their public |
