Yes, it's the end of the world.

I'm posting about experimental folk. Tunng from the UK, in particular.Though I have little to nothing to do with this genre, I can't help it, I like their song Bullets so much and it has a beautiful new video!(maybe I like Bullets 'cause it's not _that_ folky? I wonder)Speaking of Tunng beautiful videos, It's Because...We've Got Hair:Check out the Tunng MOG love by Jenny, Puffy, Kate and Michael over at Tunng's artist lounge.

  3. Anna says Troy, why I oughta. I'll even ask Lizzie to help me! Dale, I'm with ya. I guess it's that it's not the typical kind of folk.

  4. HelenMarie says Bullets is nice and catchy. I think you're right it doesn't seem _that_ folky. I'd listen either way. But I felt like I was 10 years old in sunday school listening to that 2nd tune. Hehe

  6. Betherz247 says Folk is not a scary word, just an FYI for you all, you'd probably be surprised on some of the artists you listen to who could be considered folk ( I happen to be a big fan of folk, some folk not ALL folk)

  7. Anna says Beth, it's just a genre I don't like much. Maybe some artists I like have songs with folk elements, but that is as far as I can go. Do love me! Let's hold hands and read our neon bibles ;)

  8. Neill says Bloody Hippies, you'll want us to listen to the grass growing between your toes as you put flowers in your hair and then dance naked around some sacred stones on a lay line next. (...then again)

  9. Augusts1 says Hahaha, it really must be the end of the world if you're spouting the wonders of a folk oriented group. Are you running a temperature niece? I do like both songs actually but I've never been opposed to folk myself. I do like the vids too. I now have R.E.M.'s "It's The End Of The World As We Know It(And I Feel Fine)" on my brain from your title. I was going to post it here but alas I only have it on *vinyl*, sigh . . . (I feel so old now).

  13. soulrocket says i like "bullets" too. you could label it as "pop with a folk twist" and keep it safe.

  14. Anna says Neill, hahahaha not too shabby after all, eh? :) Oh uncle A, I think it's time for my Meds... Old? Vinyl should make you feel kinky, dearest..... ;) Mikey, I can't decide if that's good or bad... :) Ty! I now EMCD people at genres I'm not crazy about. *"Dalefix":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurring_characters_in_Asterix#Getafix* (link) must have given me the good magic potion this time. soulrocket, thank you! I feel so much better now :)
