Can we get a folk appreciation thread going, albums you love, songs you love, ETC?
>>69062356

>>69062356

>>69062377

If you like AJJ then check out Hańba. Polish folk punk, pretty similar. Their s/t is one of the best albums of 2016.

Been enjoying these guys lately, "Distraction 74" by them has a great end vocal alternating part that's really enjoyable.
Fleet Foxes, Connor Oberst, and early Bob Dylan are great choices too
This.
I almost never listen to folk but I've been listening to John Fahey lately and it's otherworldly and rad.

I love AJJ and I can even get down with some kinda gimmicky stuff like Gogol Bordello, but I honestly kinda hated that.

Yeah, John Fahey is amazing but I probably prefer Robbie Basho on balance .You're probably familiar with Glenn Jones and James Blackshaw but just in case.

I can see why you might not like Hanba, I'm really into eastern european/balkan folk so see Gogol Bordello as "babby's first gypsy music" if that doesn't sound too pretentious. Gulag Orkestar by Beirut is better as a mix of rock/western influences imo.
>>69063257
A mix of rock/western influences with balkan stuff I mean
>>69063257
>see Gogol Bordello as "babby's first gypsy music" if that doesn't sound too pretentious.
It definitely is. I'm a pleb.
Thanks for the reccs.

Oh Gosh! Finally I see someone talking about AJJ! Does anyone listen to Ghost Mice?
>>69063401
Post some
windmills is a beautiful song through and through. It's incredibly simple but I really do love it.
>>69063546

I'm digging this, got any album links?
What does a young artist have to do in the 2010s to not automatically get labeled as "indie folk" /mu/?
is ""true"" folk only applicable if you're over 50 years old?
>>69063201
That isn't alternative rock, it's indie dream pop
>>69062356
I couldn't listen to more than 60 seconds of PTCEP, it was utter trash to my ears
This is what you need
>>69063746
I suppose so. Even our boy Suf got labeled indie folk
>>69063746
Be so weird that they call you "freak folk"
https://youtu.be/p4CCuJblouo?t=212
What did he mean by this?
>>69062473
Ayy i was the one who shared that glad you liked it

>>69063854
I ask because, well, listen to this song from the late 70s:
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0rYtPF3hOin
Would you say this is plain folk?
Would your opnion change if I told you it's actually [spoiler]Joshua "Deakin" Dibb of Animal Collective[/spoiler] recorded in [spoiler]2015[/spoiler]?
A bit of a bias within the purist circles IMO
>>69063641
Eh, good if you like that sort of thing, pretty average otherwise
I like Fleet Foxes. They release 3rd LP soon. I hope Robin's butthurt at Trump being elected doesn't ruin it.

thanks a lot man
>>69063401
They had a collab album a while back
>>69063803
You're the type that doesn't like Anco because of their first songs
>>69063717
I uploaded the first three Retsin albums recently. Sweet Luck Of Amaryllis is the most folk of them.
