Ive been getting a lot into neofolk lately, and now I’m trying to find some outside the England/Germany classic bands. I’ve heard some of Burzum’s more neofolky songs, but I haven’t found Swedish bands. Does anyone have any?
I often see these pictures of NON or just Boyd rice and I always wonder what specific things is he wearing? Like how do you even replicate the outfit - where would I look to buy these garments [as I think replicating an AF or NON uniform could be quite cool, archival wise]
They went on sale hours ago on Bandcamp but are already sold out. Can anyone tell me how the sound differs from previous versions?
Another underestimated itian band besides Argine. CM are more neoclassic than neofolk but they combine music from different times with great musicianship and classically trained voices to a great cocktail. Definitely headphone instead of party music.
In my opinion a completely underestimated band. Opus magnum is without doubt Luctamina in Rebus. But the other albums are also great. They developed from a pure neofolk/neoclassical band by adding pop, rock and prog elements to their sound. Definetly a band every neofolk aficionado has to check out if you missed them so far
I’ve listened to a lot of Post-Rock, Shoegaze, and Emo over the years, but lately I’ve started to feel that the music I make sounds more like ambient folk.
I’d really appreciate any feedback or thoughts you might have.
Recently I was listening to Burial by Death in June, and the second half got me thinking about the overlap between anarcho-punk and neofolk, especially during the early development of the latter genre. What are some artists who are authentic examples of that crossover, whether aesthetically, politically, or musically? I’m aware of Crisis as an obvious connection, but am interested in less obvious examples, as someone who's still new to the genre. I’m especially interested in artists whose connection comes from shared roots in the post-punk, DIY, experimental, or folk traditions, rather than just similar imagery.
Just discovered this masterpiece today
