19 schöne Folk Cover von bekannten Punk Titeln. Macht mich richtig traurig-glücklich, oder so ähnlich. Clash, Ramones, Husker Du – Alles richtig zum heulen. Auf die “altmännisch” schöne Weise. Mir kommen die Tränen.

There’s beauty in punk music, I think – a dark and angry beauty, but a beauty nonetheless. And this beauty makes its way into the delicate and deliberate, too. The anger here isn’t gone, it’s merely transformed: into something tender, or more distant, depending on the artist’s choice of interpretation. The vulnerability of folk performance doesn’t so much bring new meaning to the songs as it does reveal the innermost secrets of its music and its society. The political is made personal. And so it goes, in the constant dance that is culture.

All Folked Up: The Punk Rock Collection, Vol. 1 – Kein Witz.

Nachtrag: Das “Petty Booka” Cover bringt mich zum kotzen.
