Tired: the heroine of the folk ballad dies at the end

Wired: the heroine of the folk ballad survives bc her lover is so hot that it causes her dad to have a bisexual awakening

Inspired: the heroine of the folk ballad survives because her lover distracts her shitty husband with an ARMY OF WHALES and steals her away to his magical ocean kingdom. (all of the whales survive also.)

folk music: "I have faced generations of oppression and mourn my lost love and country, but my culture will persist and survive"

also folk music: "I am going to drink so much alcohol you don't understand. literally So much alcohol"

also folk music: "oops I killed my husband lol"

also folk music: "shit I should have married that girl. too bad she keeps ignoring me every time I try to break into her house"

also folk music: "I feel an unimaginable grief for a past I can never return to" also folk music: "fiddle dee doodle diddle deedle deedle dee"

Friends, as a massive new wave fan, I have developed a theory: Every new wave song is somewhere between punk, goth, and disco.

My proof:

Big thanks to @dartheritis for their help

Speaking of familial and platonic love, one of my favorite hobbies is rewriting romantic love songs to be as familial/platonic as possible without any creepy undertones.

When I say The Amazing Devil is my favorite band I don't mean it's my top band among many I mean it's the only band I listen to at all. They ruined me for other music. I want everything I listen to to be just as dramatic and vocally emotive and narratively focused and lyrically intricate, but I can't find anything else that scratches the itch and believe me I've tried. 😩Want to know what comes the closest for me, weirdly enough? Tenacious D.

What band is considered the best folk punk group of all time?

Not necessarily your favorite, but the overall best in your opinion or in the opinion of the general community or both. I must know.
