My problem with most folk-punk is that it's far more folk than it is punk. For the longest time I've been looking for some actual punk, and by that I mean fast, simple, rebellious tunes, but with acoustic instruments. Most of this just sounds like really political folk played by a full band.

of course it's part of it, Minutemen are called Post-Punk all the time when they aren't really imo but that doesn't change what the genre entails......it's a punk and folk hybrid and that's what Billy Bragg is imo.

There is, after all, a definite reason truckers and farmers listen to Merle Haggard and not The Bike is a Pipe Bomb. |
