	Folk punk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Folk punk, in its most general sense, is a genre (or set of genres) of music that combine elements of folk and punk rock music.
		Folk punk embraces a legacy of traditional folk music, typified by themes of working class solidarity and resistance in the face of the perceived problems of industrialization and modern capitalism.
		Most famous amongst the public is the Pogues who formed in the first wave of punk rock in the late 1970s and found immense popularity in the punk community with their mix of traditional folk songs, modern social commentary and boozy hedonism.

	Salon \| What is a Jewish lesbian punk folk singer to do? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Yet the punk element was not enough to completely erase all of my unappealing free associations with Tupperware: the drab '50s bungalows, the career housewives, the bad meatloaf and the bad, bad plastic juju.
		Her voice is sweet, reminiscent of Joan Baez, decidedly more folk than punk, and the group gathered outside -- parents, children and singles alike -- sways and nearly breaks into song.
		In the late-'70s and early-'80s she was a fixture of the L.A. punk scene, playing in bands like Nervous Gender and Catholic Discipline alongside such punk notables as the Circle Jerks and X.

	Phranc's folk/punk has perspective - The Boston Globe
		It was comforting that a pioneering gay elder with a spiky flattop, combat boots, and cuffed Levis could inspire straight lovebirds, hipsters, and aging feminists alike with playful odes to her partner, biting social commentary, and a eulogy for a dead rodeo parakeet named Ouija.
		It seems apparent that newer lesbian punk eruptions including the Queercore Blitz East, a tour including the Kitty Kill; '90s riot grrl outfits such as Bikini Kill and Team Dresch; and even the pansexual struts of electro ice queen Peaches can be traced in part back to Phranc.
		The longstanding, self-proclaimed "All-American Jewish lesbian folk singer" has been performing since the late '70s, getting her start amid the trash and junkies haunting the LA punk scene as guitarist for the nasty iconoclasts Catholic Discipline.

	Ska punk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ska and punk rock were first combined during the 2 Tone movement of the late 1970s, with bands such as The Specials, The Selecter, The Beat, The Clash, The Ruts, and The Slits.
		Ska punk fans are sometimes dubbed rude boys or rude girls, although they rarely resemble the original rude boys of 1960s Jamaica.
		This is particularly evident at ska punk concerts, where one can see people not only dressed in traditional rudie or punk fashions, but also fans sporting clothes associated with other genres, such as pop punk and skate punk.

		But this is where the landless gypsy rovers and the crusty punks, the hobos and the anarchists all converge in a pub and share a beer or a whiskey and overthrow the establishment together..."
		These two play acoustic folk political punk that is so awesome, so moving, so powerful and intense, it’s hard to capture the words to describe it.
		With the rise of hip hop and punk as outlets for venting revolutionary opposition to government repression, the uninformed groupthink right-wing's purges of any progressive-populist/anti-government sentiments from country music, and the general yuppifcation of properly termed folk music on the whole, the saliency of political folk has certainly withered significantly over time.

		This emphasis on accessibility exemplified punk's DIY aesthetic, and contrasted with the ostentatious musicianship of many of the mainstream rock bands popular in the years before the advent of punk.
		In the early days of punk rock, such musical virtuosity was often looked on with suspicion - complicated guitar solos were considered self-indulgent and unnecessary, although simple guitar breaks were still common, even in early punk songs.

	The Mick Sinclair Archive: Folk Devils
		As a group they flirt with powerful forces, seeking to evoke a precise anger and channel it into grandly atmospheric charges of noises.
		In response the crowd, from early into the set, thinned dramatically and as time passed the Folk Devils’ own frustration increased.
		Those who remained blamed the group for the shoddy performance while the group hurled the vitriol at the monitors.

	Political Affairs Magazine - Music Review: Irish Folk vs. Punk (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The new release by The Kissers from Madison, Wisconsin, far-removed from the birthplace of Irish folk rock only by time and space, will nevertheless transport you to when The Pogues rocked the new wave scene in the 1980s.
		This CD, a provocative mix of electric and acoustic, fast-paced rhythms and authentic Irish folk ballads, is full of anger and fight (as the title suggests) but it is also beautifully written, touching, and poetic.
		It is a tag team of anarchistic punk, Australian folk, political core metal, and left-wing political propaganda.

		The fact that downtown is practically desolate, that chain movie theaters keep popping up, and that strip malls outnumber the population are only minor things compared to the enthusiasm we have encountered among the music makers, artists, and their fans in our fair city.
		People are always amazed when we mention our fans in Europe...not to mention the 500 other celtic folk punk bands out there and their fans.

	Shite'n'Onions
		We had already been playing our mix of folk and punk for a few years and had released a 7 track EP ‘Any Way You Can’.
		Another influence at this stage was the retro punk explosion; bands like Green Day, certainly the story-telling lyrics and energy of Rancid’s “Let’s Go,” and the books of Irvine Welsh lent to a tell-it-like-it-is street story in our newer lyrics.
		Its great Fistolo have re-released the album and its good to hear it all these years on when I fell quite removed from it The band has moved on in many ways and it’s a bit like another bands record but listening back we were not bad then...

		I was and am inspired by political, anarchist, and activist music (punk, folk, etc.) so that's naturally what I geared my lyrics and sound towards.
		I tried to put together a punk band based off of my acoustic songs, so I got a drummer named Craig and got my brother (who at the time was playing in an Irish music band) to join up.
		No decision has been collectively made to stay Penny Punk or for me to break off solo yet, but whenever a show comes up we will play nonetheless.

	The Big Takeover: Folk-Punk Piano Players of the World Unite! [Part I] :
		Yet, while attending many of the folk and/or acoustic music venues in the Bay-area, I quickly became aware that functioning upright pianos are almost as rare as a parking space just before a San Francisco Giants game in which BARRY BONDS only needs one homerun to break BABE RUTH’s record.
		One of these assumptions is that folk music generally involves guitars or other stringed or portable instruments.
		One can be called a ‘freak folk’ artist, for instance, if one plays the harp, but there’s not enough novelty for a pianist to warrant this currently fashionable designation.

	Slavic folk, flamenco, punk. And that's just for starters. - The Boston Globe
		And yet in the hands of two Russians, a pair of Israelis, one Chinese-Scot, a Thai-American, an Ecuadorian, the Ukrainian, and a plain old Floridian, telling it like it is translates to a frenzy of sounds that straddles the globe and the ages.
		It's not just the eccentric combo of Slavic folk and dub effects, or the brain-scrambling mash of flamenco and punk, or the revolutionary zeal with which Hutz fuses politics, lechery, and accordions on the group's new album, ''Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike."
		New York was always the dream, the kind of place where a young psychobilly punk musician with a severe case of cultural nostalgia and a powerful progressive streak might fashion a new crossroads -- one that recognizes no borders, musical or otherwise.

		They've collected folk songs from the southern Calabrian region that are actually banned in Italy for promoting Mafia culture, and now folk quintet Il Canto di Malavita bring the vibrant stories of those in the family business to life in these Old World gangsta raps.
		Charming folk tunes about traitors, informants and eye-for-an-eye-style retribution are interspersed with odes to mobsters and a hair-raising jailhouse ballad by someone serving life.
		It's still catchy, straight-ahead poppy punk about which there's nothing new to say on any level, but they are better than many of their contemporaries.

		The recording is ok. The vocals were a little loud and the whole thing was a little bit dry.

	From folk to punk in 2.63 seconds - Blogging Ohio
		In the Ballroom was Josh Ritter, who went to that Ohio bastion of all things liberal, arts and otherwise, Oberlin College.
		Josh plays beautiful and catchy folk tunes, a little reminiscent of Dylan, but mostly sounding like the extremely talented, Idaho-bred boy that he is. The room was packed: tons of fellow Obies, many parental types, even a bike messenger or two.
		The point of the night, for me, was bouncing back and forth between Josh's set and the punk sets in the Tavern.

		The most recent DKM release, 2005's The Warrior Code, showcases punk ethics and Celtic influence on songs like The Auld Triangle, The Last Letter Home and the title track.
		Those who don't know the Murphys should treat themselves to their brand bagpipe-punk, made relevant by a sincere dedication to the working man which sets them apart from many of their punk peers.

		So he went back and forth between wanting to play folk (which he liked because it was honest and unpretentious and didn’t require a band) and wanting to play punk (which he liked because it was fast and furious and he had to do something with all that testosterone...).
		After flip-flopping between folk and punk he finally thought “Sod this, I’m gonna combine the two and see what happens!”
		His latest CD, “...every cloud has a sulphur lining...”, also blends the rootsy honesty of folk with the straight forward, no-nonsense aggression of punk.

	Editorial: Camera Obscura - Punk As Folk
		I am, as should be obvious, a fan of this sort of thing.
		I'm a sucker for a fiddle-and-guitars sound, me. But I have a yardstick I use when watching this sort of band - the number of songs like The Wild Rover, or Finnegan's Wake or any other traditional folk songs that they play is inversely proportional to the quality of the band.
		I don't think it's a co-incidence that if you're trying to get adults to look at comics, you give them things like TRANSMETROPOLITAN, or PREACHER rather than ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN - solid original material, rather than a cover version, however good the cover may be.
