# Event Details - **Event Name**: This Ain’t Rock ‘n’ Roll: DANIEL RACHEL - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 22 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 22 Jan, 2026 at 11:00 pm - **Event Description**: Rock's flirtation with fascism examinedAbout this EventMusic historian Daniel Rachel returns to Walthamstow with this timely and important book exploring rock and pop music's fascination with the swastika and the Third Reich.Over the last seven decades, some of rock 'n' roll's most celebrated figureheads have flirted with the imagery and theatre of the Third Reich. From Keith Moon and Vivian Stanshall kitting themselves out in Nazi uniforms to Siouxsie Sioux and Sid Vicious brandishing swastikas in the pomp of punk, generations of performers have associated themselves in troubling ways with the aesthetics, mass hysteria and even ideology of Nazism. Whether shock factor, stupidity, or crass attempt at subversion, rock 'n' roll has indulged these associations in a way not accepted by any other artform. But how accountable should fans, the media, and the music industry be for what has often seemed a sleazy fascination with the eroticised perversions of a fascist regime?In This Ain't Rock 'n' Roll, award-winning music historian Daniel Rachel navigates these turbulent waters with extraordinary delicacy and care, asking us to look anew at the artists that have defined us, inspired us and given us joy - and consider why so many have been drawn to the imagery of a movement responsible for the twentieth century's worst atrocities. Alongside a sensitive history of the Holocaust and an examination of the place it holds in our cultural consciousness, Rachel asks essential questions of actions often overlooked or underplayed, whilst neither casting sweeping judgement nor offering easy answers. In doing so, he asks us to reassess the history of rock 'n' roll and sheds new light on the grim echoes of the Third Reich in popular culture and the legacy of twentieth (and twenty-first) century history as it defines us today.Daniel will be joined by writer/artist Caroline Coon in a discussion chaired by novelist/film director Emma Forrest.https://www.carolinecoon.com/https://www.emmaforrest.com/ - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/this-ain’t-rock-‘n’-roll-daniel-rachel/100001977486173377 - **Event Categories**: art, entertainment, literary-art, performances, music, theatre, nonprofit, pop - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fthis-aint-rock-n-roll-daniel-rachel-tickets-1977486173377 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 10.46, max: 38.62, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Walthamstow Trades Hall - **lat**: 51.5888061 - **long**: -0.0191628 - **full address**: Walthamstow Trades Hall, 61-63 Tower Hamlets Road, London, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Walthamstow Rock 'n' Roll Book Club (https://allevents.in/org/walthamstow-rock-n-roll-book-club/22534754) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/6727d5c3eed239956670bd70a3370fbee84b654b2c63e6c498c2eec3c69da7e5-rimg-w1200-h600-dce5e1d2-gmir.jpg?v=1766222944 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/8db10f0dfcaabbd8a29ca9773cf71f735be6a5b09ce4e6f11189b867515488dd-rimg-w400-h400-dcf0ecde-gmir.jpg?v=1766222944 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening?
