lol thats hilarious. lets talk about sufjan. michigan is the best.

See I only know a few of his works, Suggestions?

yeah, i only have seven swans and illinoise and to tell you the truth, he gets a bit samey....i doubt michigan is different....

Thats what im afraid of, and I think thats the issue with neofolk. They put a stonger influence on music and theres this over lying pretence that theres only so far that you can go with the music. Which is fine, if you don't make the music equal to the vocals.

I think the original folkies would have a major emphasis on vocal melody. I don't see that so often in modern folk, and thats what I think needs to change.

i think that what the freak folkers are doing is very different from sufjan and jose gonzalez.....not samey that is...

Greetings From Michigan > Seven Swans

Hi Y'all From Sh*thole Missouri > ?????? (we'll see...)

the who?

not all his stuff is samey. if you really like it then each song becomes unique. see i might listen to a whole punk album and i might think it's all the same because it's not really what I'm into. Seven Swans is so far different from Illinois. Illinois is all big band with lots of instruments whereas seven swans is a quiet more acoustic album.

Alright so other than John Waybe Gacy Jr. what should I go check out immediatly?

Hookers had me check him out, its veryyy good.
