This Ain’t Rock ’n’ Roll: Pop Music, the Swastika, and the Third Reich

Milim presents a powerful and thought-provoking talk with Daniel Rachel, exploring his new book This Ain’t Rock ’n’ Roll: Pop Music, the Swastika, and the Third Reich. In this compelling event, Daniel examines the troubling and often overlooked relationship between popular music and Nazi imagery across the past seventy years.

From shock tactics in punk to provocative stage personas, generations of artists have engaged with symbols and aesthetics tied to one of history’s darkest regimes. But why has this fascination persisted and what responsibility do musicians, media, and audiences bear? Drawing on meticulous research Daniel navigates these difficult questions with sensitivity, encouraging us to reconsider the cultural legacy of music we love.

An award-winning author and former musician, Daniel brings both insight and nuance to this challenging subject, offering an essential conversation about history, memory, and ethics in popular culture
