Abstract:
The research explores how local linguistic resources can transform into indexes of transnational subcultures. Drawing on indexicality and chronotopic frame theory, we examine how the lyricists of two extreme metal bands features to reproduce a metal affect known as ‘brutality’, expanding the chronotopic configuration of forms formerly considered strictly local to communicate with a global participation framework and create complex layers of social meaning. The findings illuminate new directions for superdiversity research by questioning the presumed necessity of presupposed ‘international’ languages or explicit ‘borrowings’ in participating within a translocal scene.
