Will folk ever be taken seriously, /mu/?
>>65689075
It is. Indie-folk on the other hand...
>>65689105
nice answer
>>65689105
Thing is, I just see people respect prog-rock and whatnot way more than folk music
>>65689075
Not if it is always unbearable White
>>65689131
Thanks friend.
>>65689151
>respect prog-rock
if only...
>>65689075
I always assumed it was one of the most respected genres
I like Folk, but prefer it mixed with Country, Blues and Rock.
>>65689151
Prog fans are circlejerkers that try really hard to make it look like it's highly respected. It's rather pathetic actually.
>>65689321
I guess you're right
>>65689221
>>65689321
Prog rock will always be more respected than your dumb indie folk
>>65689376
OP is about folk in general, you dumb dadrock-drone

Yes and Pink Floyd will always be more respected than Sufjan Stevens and other gay shit
>>65689475
(you)
>>65689475
We're talking Simon and Garfunkel. and Bob Dylan, not that indie shit
>>65689526
>implying sufjan isn't better than both of those artists
>>65689571

>>65689475
pink floyd was influenced by folk
>>65689571
this
>>65689604
So what? Radiohead was influenced by REM. That doesn't make REM good OR respected.
what's gayer, simon and garfunkel or sufjan stevens?
>>65689680
>that doesn't make them respected
>the musicians you list respect them
>>65689680
It doesn't make Radiohead good either
>>65689719
Fuck you, leatherhead.

I wish I could confidently say this was bait
>>65689075
>Many many thousands of years of continuous music making by mankind go unrecorded. All of it that is made outside of monarchical or religious contexts is folk.

>"Will folk ever be taken seriously?"
>>65689075
We tried to take it seriously in 1965, and again in 2011.
Not ever falling for that one again
