none of this is neofolk

>>14075066

>>14075067
this

/fa/ doesn't understand neofolk at all
but thank fuck desu, i'd hate for all the cringey zoomer shits to actually coopt it

>>14075075

>>14075077
I think it's just stupid americans who don't understand that neofolk is militaristic ww2 themed shit and not medieval renessaince fair costumes

>>14075079
what they need to understand is that neofolk and post-industrial are synonymous

>>14075057
I agree with not wanting to include the facistcore but none of these photos posted so far are NeoFolk.

>>14075077
im talking about neofolk in the sense of traditional european folk costume and culture

i may have used the wrong term, as i know neofolk in fashion tends to refer to the whole volkisch aesthetics of the music genre

what i mostly see in neofolk threads is an emphasis on german uniforms and militarism rather than the actual basis behind what neofolk is trying to revive

>>14075080
They're just too retarded to even get that the name doesn't mean 'folk'-clothing

>>14075085
Neofolk is not trying to revive pre ww2 europe.

It is a melancholic re-imaginging of what was lost in the war itself. That's why it's post industrial military clothing and black shirts.

If you want 'folk costumes' don't make a neofolk thread.

>>14075085
then you're not talking about neofolk, just traditional folk clothing

>>14075090
>majority of artists within the neofolk genre focus on archaic, cultural and literary references. Local traditions and indigenous beliefs tend to be portrayed heavily as well as esoteric and historical topics.
i understand where you're coming from, and i agree that to an extent that that's what it is, but i think it's undeniable that traditional european culture is also a major part of it

>>14075095
Yes, it is part of it, but not in terms of fashion or dress code.

It's more about the feeling of being bound to those traditions rather than dressing up in some traditional costume.

They're wearing military uniforms because they're 'defending' the tradition rather than larp as some peasant with a hood

I hear a lot of people saying things aren't neofolk, but no one actually saying what it is?
Is it even a fashion thing really, or mostly a genre of music with a style that's associated but not that important?
Are you really going to try and tell me also that it's not a little bit fascist as well, when half these threads are just photos of wehrmacht uniform pieces incorporated into an otherwise normal fit

>>14075097
i agree, i guess i misspoke

what i meant by neofolk was the actual neo-folk bit, as in the contemporary interpretation of traditional european costume and ideals

>>14075100
Take a look at
>>14075079
This is a neo folk band with fascist nazi imagery wearing german ww2 military clothing

that's what the neofolk style is. The actual one not the diluted too scared to be edgy one

>>14075116
so it's just neo nazi

>>14075123
op here

no, it's not

see>>14075090

>>14075123
It's nazi imagery but most of the bands talk it down to just being for looks and not really caring about the ideology. Most of the people who listen to the stuff will also try to downplay the impact of the look itself like that one homo who always does his whole 'there's black people at runes and men' shitposting shtick

>>14075116
If it's just neo nazi music why not just call it that, isn't the LARPy name just as "scared to be edgy"?

>>14075133
Again it's not related to actual neonazis. Most populat neo folk bands arent even from germany. Most of them are also literally homosexual.

It's just nazi clothing and aesthetics

>>14075057

>>14075133
just cuz you braindead mongrel call everything "nazi" doesnt actually make it nationalsocialism, so shut the heck up

>>14075138
So from now on when I see the term "Neofolk", I should translate that to "People who the Nazis wanted to kill, doing Nazi fancy dress and making industrial music but with harps and shit"

>>14075143
Yes, that is exactly what it is. I think this is the first time one of these threads literally explained what neo folk is in such a short amount of time without some faggot injecting their esoterica trying to flex the shitty books they're reading to make up for their lack of personality.

>>14075142
I didn't say they were ideological national socialists I said they were nazis, or neo nazis
a slang term for edgy
>reads one book by Evola"
tier teenagers

And just lol at you calling me a mongrel when I'm probably more "pure" than you

>>14075067
nah, fuck off fascist

>>14075152
neofolk isn't fascist you dumb nigger

It's just fascist imagery and clothing

>thought this would be a good thread

instead, ruined by fedora larpers with a shallow understanding of the neofolk aesthetic

>>14075155
nah fuck off you druid larping faggot

neo folk is shit music and the only good thing about is the nazi stuff

>>14075057

>>14075177
cringe

imagine some american mutt post all of this european culture

>>14075157
>neo folk is shit music
lol shit taste

>>14075249
Perfect for you then

>>14075254
>no u
lol shit retort

>>14075259
Shit meme

Die

I wish suit-fags didn't co-op the word "Trad/Traditional" so that we could actually have Traditional Clothing threads without having it confused for Neo-Folk aka Post Industrial

>>14075150
>I didn't say they were ideological national socialists I said they were nazis, or neo nazis
a slang term for edgy
yep, you re retarded

>>14075150
>And just lol at you calling me a mongrel when I'm probably more "pure" than you

>>14075180
this is romanian traditional wear

i also happen to be romanian lmao

>>14075509
lmao you're brown

>>14076417
fuck the hell off with this garbo

>>14075057
Folk threads are great, just don't call it neofolk. Neo-anything does not simply mean a contemporary revival of something, it always refers to something new and distinct. Neofolk is no exception.

>>14075057
>trve neovolk
Imagine being so wrong.
