NotesSongwriting celebrates a comeback! Terms like 'Neofolk', 'Antifolk' or 'Weird Folk' made the rounds for quite some time and have recently made a come back. A new generation have taken over the microphone, whose aim is to not sound like another version of Joni Mitchell or Bob Dylan. Their Folk is a hybrid - an unorthodox mix of free improvisation and the aggressiveness of Punk, taking simple means of expression to create contrast by mixing soothing melodies with drastic lyrics. This compilation does not want to create a new school or movement, but shows just how versatile the new songwriting generation deals with the American Folk Heritage and how they oppose without their pieces sounding like your usual protest song. Features Jad Fair, Eugene Chadbourne, Devendra Bahnart and more.
