Musicwrite thought for the day

[meserach.livejournal.com]

Is the current folk revival thing we've got going on (Laura Marling and Mumford and Sons being the touchstones I'm thinking of here) a reaction to the Auto-tuned artificalness of late noughties music in the same way that the seeing out of authenticity from souls in the late eighties was a reaction to the artificiality of the early eighties?

Sexy, waifish, seems to fall codependently for uncommitted artistic loser types on the far cliffs of despair (in the several lyrics I've heard). In range of Tashbed and Amy. More accessible than freak folk. Sexy.
