Neofolk thread

[Jeremiah Foster]

If you're new to this type of music, download the introductory 3-disc compilation I made for my father's birthday here: mega.nz/#!K8AgGAYQ!drHWbi646tZ3t0DRQZleKbcMBzEeQClX1NzOMzAuETs

(((other Anons are invited to make and share their own introductory compilations, charts, memes and OC)))

To anryone interested in John Murphy (1959-2015):

This archive comprises all of Murphy's solo work (Shining Vril) gathered from many neofolk / post-industrial compilations and "All My Sins Remembered", a 2016 commemorative compilation made by friends and colleagues of Murphy featuring among others Nikolas Schreck, :Of The Wand And The Moon:, Blood Axis, SPK, Genocide Organ, Die Weisse Rose and Andrew King. Profits were donated to Murphy's wife to cover for medical and funeral expenses.

Some tastes of his work:

I very much recommend his and Nikolas Schreck's performance "In her thrall" for a demonstration of his capabilities as an improvising live musician:

I'm announcing my leave for the night, cooking and spending time with family I will be absent from today's thread for the longest time. I am sure you anons will keep the flag flying.

Competent musicianship with pop appeal and very well-written subtly political lyrics - quite obviously most og Rome's albums have a theme, in the case of your pic the Spanish civil war. Also check out his newest album The Hyperion Machine as well as some of his older stuff. Confessions d'un Voleur d'Amés and Nos Chants Perdu are also great entrypoints for new listeners. His albums are all very different so if you don't like Flowers From Exile, just try another one.

I will return in 5 hours.

[James Perry]

I've been considering making a neofolk flowchart, but I'm too damn biased.
