I dont know if you would exactly call this punk, i know i sure as hell wouldnt, but this is really the only modern, but this is the only english band i follow that's not that well known in america , but there a pretty good band

haha thats definitely not folk punk foxie.
more like world music?
i think gogol counts tho.

im a huge folk punk fan
i guess it opened my eyes to all the hippies in the world. theyre cool people.

recently got into frank turner.
his acoustic stuff. its not extremely punk, but his roots are definitely punk (million dead). its decent music none the less.

i do wish i could find another band as talented as mischief brew. no luck in all my months of searching. in my opinion, w/ifs and andrew jackson jihad just dont compare. mischief is unique. ugh. i love them.

suggestions no one has mentioned -
beans on toast
against me's earlier stuff.

Calling Friendly Fires 'world music' is just as big a stretch as calling them Folk Punk. They're an electronic/disco kicking indie band.
