folk punk bands?

[natgr81]

can anyone give me some good folk punk bands, i realy like the style, but im have trouble finding decent bands, probobly b/c the music is underground and what what not. so any good bands people?

 

[Danielsama34]

It seems like folk is becoming the new ska... but being a fellow folkie Ill help ya out... You should check out Andrew Jackson Jihad, Defiance Ohio, Tin Tree Factory, Riot Folk collective, Chumbawamba, and of course Mischief Brew... Let me know if ya like them.

black death all stars, barefoot surrender, mancub, counterfiet matt, 37 cents, screams of christ, mcdougall, al baker and the dole que. im trying to branch off from the typical answers. but all of these groups/artists have myspaces and you can listen to them for free.

 

[natgr81]

yeah, defiance, ohio is good, i also like the bike is a pipe bomb, and chicken little alot.

blackbird raum n' dandelion junk queens!

I dig the Hail Seizures along with them.

Anyone know other rad bands similar to these?

 

[streetlight]

All i can say is the fucking Dreadnoughts from vancouver canada

That is a pretty damn good song, but to hear the best of them you will really have to buy/download their albums. Go on their myspace for more aswell.

Mutiny (from austrailia), The Orphans, Zydepunks, Two Gallants, Ghost Mice, Tim Barry... and yeah Mischief Brew, Defiance Ohio, Andrew Jackson Jihad, This Bike Is a Pipe Bomb, are all pretty much excellent fucking bands

theres a band called Reverend peytons big damn band. includes banjo and washboard and some other neat instruments very folk like kinda punky they play in eugene all the time. i def have to go with ghost mice, defience ohio, spoon boy,Ryan Harvey, mischeif brew,Erik peterson(frommischief brew) he has some solo shit. this bike is a pipe bomb,chumbawamba. damni cant think of a bunch right now. wish i had my mp3 with me. umm but ya check those out most of those had already been mentioned but its another opinion on how good they are.

I'm not sure what's been suggested already, but I'm going to have to go through this thread - I'm in need of some new folk punk bands to check out

I've been listening to a lot of the same few bands lately - Mischief Brew, Wingnut Dishwashers Union/Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains, This Bike is a Pipe Bomb, and a bit of Andrew Jackson Jihad

Blackbird Raum, Ghost Mice

Blackbird Raum, Ghost Mice

Blackbird Raum is tha shit!

 

[Awol]

I stumbled across them playing on the sidewalk in Union Square in NYC a couple years ago.

Not really folk punk... but still really good. Hank III, Hillstomp, The .357 String Band, Larry and His Flask

What kind of banjo is that? Looks like a Goldtone. Despite the quality of the recording, it sounds great for not having a resonator.

The Pasties

blackbird raum and pat the bunny are super rad. di nigunim is a great klezmer punk band that toured with raum.
