What's the most recent folk album that could be considered revolutionary?
Post folk with predominantly electronic sounds.

Sufjan is the leader in this regard and pic related would be his most revolutionary.
Go to illionis if you want something a bit more traditional

Bruv I love these albums but considering SYT "revolutionary" is pretty silly.
You have no idea how much he banks on being extremely lo-fi and obscure.
>>70424055
Meh, a lot of his work, particularly that album, come off as more conscious noise than simply lo-quality recording, if that makes any sense.

What is your endgame here? to argue that sufjan stevens isn't folk?
Quite obviously is, and sure age of adz might not be traditional folk but it's exactly what OP was asking for.

New Bon Iver
>Avey Tare: It's weird, in New York, it's like the big theme of everything is folk music and interacting with people. Maryland is where the landscape of our music comes from, it was more like, let's walk around. People are saying that we are part of some sort of folk scene. We don't feel connected with it. We do live in the city, and communicate with people. It's all folk music.
>Pitchfork: It's that quote, "It's all folk music. I never heard no horse make music."
>Avey Tare: People seem to think that folk music is people with acoustic guitars. Or punk music is people with mohawks, leather jackets. It's all folk music.
Avey said it best - you dont have to be a 40 year old in midwestern US in the 1960s to have made 'legitimate folk'. it's all folk music and people specify it to a really certain point

If you listened blind, Harpy is indistinguishable from 70s folk music
