Abstract
The research on which this paper is based was conducted to reveal indicators of late modernity (postmodernity) in the culture of Lithuania, illustrated by examples of subcultures. The youth underground subculture, with an orientation toward the West is analysed to achieve the aforementioned objective. This genre encompasses the subculture of metal music, named metalist – Pagans. This world outlook within the metal music subculture formed around 1990, though its origin was the Black Metal style, known in Lithuania since about 1985. Analysis of the subculture reveals the means of its experimentation whose essence is the formation of a symbolic game-playing world, where the main characteristics are generating aesthetics of cultural space, ritualisation, and frequent mythologization and mystification, as well as experimentation in the field of artistic creativity. The analysis of the cultural text (image, symbols, symbolic actions, artistic creativity) of a subculture, and its meanings to the initiators, reveals the principles of creating a cultural identity by the subcultural group.[...].
