   About Antifolk UK (AFUK)

Antifolk is a rediscovery of the ethics behind songwriting and its performance and a reaction against rigidity and conservatism in music, providing a platform for some of the most innovative, imaginative and unusual songwriters from London and beyond to find an audience.

Antifolk UK (AFUK) was formed in 2004 by Filthy Pedro who was enthused by a visit to New York (where antifolk began) and wanted to put on a UK music night with a similar DIY ethic and community feel. 

Numerous Antifolk Festivals later, Antifolk UK has become a supportive community of musicians who perform regularly together, appear in others backing bands and help each other to find gigs through other promoters.

UK Antifolk has now also spread beyond London with Brighton also having its own strong antifolk scene.


 

FIRST AFUK COMPILATION OUT NOW! ON CD (Buy here or from various stockists) or DIGITAL (via puregroove.co.uk).

Hey

We're about to record a new EP but can't decide which songs to put on it. To avoid any more 'heated debates' we've decided to let the good people of the internet decide.

If you've got a spare few minutes, please head over to http://www.naomihateshumans.com - have a listen to the songs and rate them. We promise to stand by the opinions of the interweb. Even if you are wrong.

Thanks

Naomi & The Fucks.

lprs037 - Frogwomen & alexander de large - 66.
6


Frogwomen’s last album is just water under the bridge
and only the disrespectful de large could encourage him to create a new one… it is a one-song record which symbolically
lasts 66.
6
minutes.
Satan worshipping, an overused topic in pop music is just the straw that allowed the struggle between the two artists to
begin: a patchwork of microsongs in which each one of them tries to annihilate the other’s style, a record that ranges
between love ditties, doom-noise cants, and irreverent & wild tarantellas (ehm.... maybe i’m overstating now). .
