friends&- folx

folx by friends& is 112 tracks of sPoNgEbOb-cased Toronto chaos, a metamodernist haymaker that digests Bob Dylan, The Carter Family, The Dead, Neil Young, Dolly Parton, John Prine and the My Little Pony soundtrack through a web 1.0 hyperpop blender with the song architecture of DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ or Girl Talk and the unhinged energy of underage kids running on gas station stimulants. This is not mockery — it's transfiguration, a genuinely internet-brained reckoning with the forcefed canon and A.I.-fication of culture that erupts with the herky-jerky abandon of a "Mr. Tambourine Man" that has lost its mind and found the dancefloor.
