The Golden Rivet

The Golden Rivet is the name of a gay bar in San Francisco, named after the mythical Golden Rivet in the bow of warships. Young male newbies are taken to see it, and when they bend over to see it, they're pantsed and fucked in their bung-hole.
I went to The Golden Rivet when I was an under-age teenager, and some dudes took me to the back room and showed me The Golden Rivet!

rivethead

A subtype or offshoot subculture of the goth or gothic subculture; also called Rivet. Rivethead has a more militaristic or post-apocolyptic aesthetic, and is more aggresive than Goth. Industrial music forms the meat and potatoes (MRI's and muddy water) of the rivethead's musical taste.

In as much as industrial music has always been integral to the gothic subculture however, and some of the founding musical influences which inspired the Rivethead subculture were bands who's members were merely goths dressing up militaristic for their stage performance, it is contentious in the gothic community as to whether Rivethead is actually anything other than a particularily aggressive style of Goth (with a majority of goths holding the opinion that it is not). Many people who identify with the Rivethead subculture are indistinguishable from goths, even to other goths, and to make matters worse most rivethead fashion models are goths.

Just like many goths, rivetheads find inspiration in cyberpunk and dystopian science fiction. However unless that whispy cloud partially obscuring the full moon is the smoke from a burning tank, a true rivethead sees nothing more than a giant nuisance in the sky possibly revealing his position to the enemy.

Gothic cathedrals are also beautiful after a warplane crashes through the back wall destroying as many religious artifacts as possible.

Just like gothic aesthetics, rivethead aesthetics integrate the sublime. In the case of rivethead however, the imagery is more related to the horror of global war, weapons of mass destruction, genocide, apocolypse, mass graves, totalitarianism and awe in respect of imagery such as vast armies of mechanized infantry, complex machines (especially factory equipment and construction vehicles), movements and dynamics of society and economies on a global scope and undefined time scale.

Generally speaking Rivethead is less influenced by feminine aesthetics of grace, romance and beauty than typical Goth, and are more influenced by the masculine asthetics of strength, fury and revolution. However... mileage may vary and the lines are very blury.

Rivetheads do not like black lights or glow-in-the-dark accessories any more than other goths do. For glow-in-the-dark see Cybergoth.

Both goths and rivetheads like the color black.
Goth: I love your boots they are so gawth!
Rivet: Actually I consider myself a rivethead.
Goth: oh? I thought you were goth. are you sure?
Rivet: I don't like to label myself but someone told me I'm "rivet", so I guess I'm "rivet".
Goth: Hey.. excuse me.. they're playing my favorite band 'Skinny Puppy', I gotta go dance!
Rivet: that's my favorite band!

Stitch Rivet

Twisting and turning the element of sound to forge the melodic invocations of the new face of Rock music, STITCH RIVET blasts away from the standards that define today’s hard rock scene. From captivating introduction to perplexingly climactic solos, the group introduces the listener to a plane of enlightenment comparative to no one else. Performances are no different. With energy levels peaking, horns and woofers blasting, and fans in a frenzy, STITCH RIVET becomes unstoppable.

Formed in March of 2006, the group consists of five members; Gene Booth, Chad (Wick) Hurlburt, Nathan Lewis, Tyler Halsey and Kevin Allen. Bands come and go, but one thing is for sure STITCH RIVET has made an impact on the rock scene in Kentucky. They have the potential to explode nationally with their debut album. Several of their songs on radio stations throughout Eastern Kentucky. Their original music has them performing at the best venues in Lexington such as A1A, The Cadillac Ranch and The Kentucky Theater.

Two of the many potential hits on the album,FRANKENSTEIN and DAY BY DAY have attracted the attention of SHOWHOUSE PRODUCTIONS LLC resulting the filming of two music videos. STITCH RIVET has also performed alongside national acts such as Drowning Pool, Bobaflex, Seven Mary Three and Nappy Roots.

The group was also included high on the roster of bands performing at the first annual Gateway Music Festival in September of 2007 and at the 2007 Poage Landing Days Festival in Ashland, Kentucky.

With blues, metal, and jazz as a basis for their influence, they compose their songs with simple complexity to give a warm depth to the creation. The short time the band has been together, the members have developed rapidly into a machine of music precision focused on timing, audience demographics, and good times.

Rivethead

Someone who deeply loves industrial music. They tend to hate nature, love machinery, and are very powerful. They may or may not like the military, but always wear things that either a army soldier or engineer wears, esp. some sort of goggles. A rivethead is usually very angry or/bitter. Despite the fact that most rivetheads can be identified by steel-toed military boots, long hair that has parts of the sideburns shaved, a trenchcoat, and a t-shirt of some obscure german-band/computer game, there is a thing such as a "Closet Rivethead". Closet Rivetheads are known to attend a prep school where they are generally regarded as a terrorist-in-training/neo-nazi, and therefore to avoid conflict will often conform to school dress codes while in school, which forms a striking contrast to his appearance outside of school. NOTE: Most Rivetheads are existentialists/nihilists.

Despite their engineer/soldier appearance, most Rivetheads are actually writers.
