Thanks, Sjef, for a great list (especially for the non-UK/US suggestions) and thanks also to everyone else who weighed in on my question! waes hael, Courtney ...
Gerald- congatulations on your very perspective notes on the German neo-folk scene- i have been wanting to bring this up before, but i never seemed to be able...
What about Werkraum? Their last album was relevant to this list, but I'm not sure about their politics. They have the guys from Changes on their record too,...
their interests lie within the reach of '70's psychfolk and they don't consider themselves associated too much with the other groups. Just look at their...
Well, yes... it seems so.I think "neo-folk" is probably often used as a catch-all phrase to describe all the bands that make darker acoustic folk-inflected...
I have said it before and I will say it again... Who cares what the personal politics of an artist are if the art is not specifically "message oriented?" A lot...
I have to agree - it gets distasteful when the politics are Skrewdriver-level in your face, but Ezra Pound's politics never got in the way of my appreciation...
It's coming out next month and has some involvement from Beth Orton, Devendra Banhart, and a few of the Espers. Banhart does nothing for me but Espers is...
There's a point in Erik's remarks, but for the moment in neo-folk the right wing musicians mostly are less gifted musicians and with less open vision in their...
... think is ridiculous. He was defentiely a Nazi with really strange thoughts, but his brain full of exaggerations made also power to his music. It's actually...
good to hear, even if it wasn't entirely without troubles. The fact that his music was still too heavily associated with the Nazis after war I can understand. ...
... Nazis after war I can understand. ... This passage has been forgotten. I only read about it in a different book written in the 40's. He himself I guess was...
Neo folk is a very difficult area. There are artists who don't use the imagery who are very right wing and those who do who aren't. I've ended up in some right...
We have to be careful in classifying artists. For example I had assumed for a long time Death In June were clearly to me a neo-nazi band. However..... they...
Hi What about Werkraum? Their last album was relevant to this list, but I'm not sure about their politics. They have the guys from Changes on their record too,...
OK, after a couple of hours of googling I give up! Just got a CDR of the 13 track OOP reissue of Tomorrow Come Someday from a trading list, but without a...
It is the third time I received this request. I think it's because it came originally from my album when I participated in a trading list for while. I hope...
... "Tomorrow Come Someday" is actually the name of the production this is taken from, Peter Howell & John Ferdinando were the artists' names. Side 1 title...
additional info you can find on http://psychedelicfolk.homestead.com/PeterHowell.html Perhaps I better add the titles on that page, Gerald (It's incredible how...
On Fri, 8 Sep 2006 21:36:08 +0200, "Gerald Van Waes" ... I will make sure the tracklisting is included in all further offers of the disc, thanks. It amazes me...
On Fri, 08 Sep 2006 19:36:32 -0000, "moecurlythanu" ... OK, I matched up the tracklist against the tracks on the CDR. The extra track comes between tracks 2 &...
Just read in an Ugly Things article on The Belfast Gypsies that Saffron Summerfield joined Trader Horne after Judy Dyble left, and they cut some unreleased...
... I don't believe they've ever been released in any form. When I first heard this, I thought it was bullshit, but I've heard it from too many good sources to...

Which are these unsavoury things said by (probably Robert of) Changes? People talk about them, but nothing ever seems to come up. I haven't spoken to Robert,...
Oh, there was supposedly some stuff said back in the 70's or late 60's about hanging black people in their houses or something like that. I don't know the...
I think that was completely refuted on the forum, and it was Robert, who supposedly said something about black people being hung in their houses, but I think...
I think my original comment was that they had said some unsavory things. That is hardly accusing them of being fascists/nazis. And from what I saw on their ...
