The Folk Implosion

Musical Group

American indie/lo-fi project led by Lou Barlow (with John Davis among early collaborators), known for the single "Natural One" from the Kids soundtrack and a string of lo-fi albums.

Lou Barlow came from Sebadoh and (earlier) Dinosaur Jr.; the project produced the single "Natural One," which received heavy MTV rotation and brought mainstream attention. Reviews emphasize a bedroom/lo-fi aesthetic, indie-pop melodies and soundtrack work.

DeBaser reviews praise The Folk Implosion's lo-fi/indie approach, highlighting One Part Lullaby and The New Folk Implosion. Reviewers note Lou Barlow's Sebadoh/Dinosaur Jr. roots and the chart success of "Natural One" from the Kids soundtrack. The overall reception here is warm and nostalgic.

For:Fans of indie/lo-fi music, Lou Barlow followers, soundtrack collectors

Let's be clear: Lou Barlow is a NERD.
