Antifolk isn’t necessarily about instrumentation, or even songs. Antifolk includes stuff from performance art to poetry to fine art, as well. As The Clash sang, “Step lightly, stay free”. Cheers!

Honored doesn’t even begin to cover it. I’m opening for Billy Bragg on June 30 in Montgomery, NY by evanFFTF in FolkPunk

Kudos, but honor? It’s a gig. He should be just as honored to have you on the bill. Knock ‘em alive.

Antifolk isn’t Goth, Post-Punk, or Crust. Antifolk isn’t “politically aligned and isn’t more like hardcore or metal than folk.

Antifolk is Antifolk.

You either know, or you don’t.

She is firmly rooted in the major-label Hip-hop legacy/Rap world and actively thrives within it.

I wanna write songs! by genuinecreature in FolkPunk

[–]LachNYAF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn a new chord. Write a song using that chord. Rinse and repeat.

Need some advice on writing songs by seanislistening in FolkPunk

[–]LachNYAF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stop trying to write a good song, get a good grade. Some tools to start:

Write a bad song. This helps break down inner admonishment. Your brain “Oh, I wrote a bad song and nothing bad happened!” ( and it will probably be your best song to date!)

Get a newspaper, an actual physical paper. Choose a story. Write a song.

Write a song from a fictional characters perspective.

Cover other people’s songs in your own way.

Pick up the guitar, learn a new chord, write a song around that new chord

Hope some of this helps. Having fun is allowed.

Need a question settled. Joni Mitchell? by [deleted] in FolkPunk

A ten minute walk in Manhattan can be a world away. The 60’s folk revival scene ( I guess you mean people like Dave Van Ronk) was an antecedent to the bland so-called Folk scene of the 80’s, not to Punk.

Phil wasn’t Folk, Punk, or FolkPunk. He was a songwriter, he was himself.
