Okay I take everything but tagging Nico with neofolk is just retarded folks. Maybe Bob Dylan is the godfather of neofolk then.

it depends what do you mean by folk (or "folklore", whatever) and which band are you talking about. Death in June has very little to do with traditional folk music, C93 has more to do with pop interpretations of folk from the 60s and 70s, Andrew King, on the other hand, uses almost exclusively traditional British folk ballads.

pretentious hipster crap, what does "neofolk" (a bunch of fags which take inspiration from dadaism and all sorts of related stuff) in a post-modern theme has to do with real folklore? Neofolk blows.

H.E.R.R. is martial. Tenhi is acoustic metal with folk influences. Don't know much about October Falls but it sounds like Tenhi. And what ORE is doing in this company? :|
