NTS GUIDE TO: NEW WEIRD AMERICA

"New Weird America" emerged in the late 90s and early 2000s, blending folk, psychedelic rock, and experimental music. Popularized by journalist David Keenan, this movement showcased American musicians embracing DIY ethos and drawing inspiration from folk traditions, avant-garde, and outsider art. Delve into bands like MV & EE, Chalambides, and Fursaxa, alongside influential acts like Sun City Girls and Jandek, in this guide exploring the genre's innovative sound.

Folk Experimental Psychedelic Rock

After hours of wandering through the world of images, sounds and the self-perceived self, the cloak of night falls around the silver shoulders of the Earth and the mind is given over to rest and left to dream. Yet dream do we not, all day long? Suspended in a realm of our individual and collective imagining, witnessing with both horror and joy the surreal expressions of our world. Thus we drift as voyagers of a waking dream, gliding upon a pillow of winds, to lands both terrible and beautiful.
