I first heard the term a couple of years back though I have also heard it called Weird Folk. Check out say CocoRosie, Devandra Banhart and even Joanna Newsom just as a few examples. I put this album in that category. "Freak" or "weird" it is still "odd" none the less. My first freakishly, weird and odd folk album was The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by The Incredible String Band. No one told me that it was freakishly, weird and odd even though it sounded freakishly, weird and odd.
Gees hope that all makes sense
