05.18.24 | Marissa Nadler - Strangers
Florist - Emily Alone |
Elynna
05.18.24 | Many goodies on here. First rec(ord) that comes to mind is:
Cages - Inside a Ringing Chord |
Demon of the Fall
05.18.24 | “AvH might do laborious demon summonings, but does she folk“
she does a little, its spectral form can sometimes be mistaken for absence
Hurrah for White Chalk. Lots of goodies here, I should check a couple more |
DadKungFu
05.18.24 | Or instead of being a sourpuss I could rec Post-Oblivion by Chunyang Yao |
Butkuiss
05.18.24 | I would’ve really expected entry level ghost folk albums Dragging a Dead Deer Up A Hill and Casualties of Cool on this list tbh.
Anyway Marissa Nadler tends to scratch this itch esp Path of the Clouds and Droneflower.
Also Dorthia Cottrell — Death Folk Country
Robbie Basho has individual tracks with an extreme ghost folk vibe (Orphans Lament chief among them) but I’m not sure he has an entire album that fits the bill — too much hollering about Wyoming otherwise. |

05.18.24 | Dead Deer is too drab to be haunted by anything but drizzle and cold feet, but I didn't know Casualties of Cool had that much of a spook factor? passed over the Winter Ray and Dance of Sun+Moon as obligatory inclusions though,
Death Folk Country is a must lol, not sure how I overlooked that. dipping into these, will be updating
Post-Oblivion is most definitely ghost, but not feeling the folk so much. very much on board with this improvised vocalise/noise closer though. will save it for the SPECTRAL drone sequel list and queue it up alongside Pan Daijing and Hatis Noit
"esp Path of the Clouds"
>feat. Simon Raymonde
>feat. Mary Lattimore
>feat. Emma Ruth Rundle
oh okay lol. Strangers was about halfway on the ghost threshold, will check this one too |
Butkuiss
05.18.24 | Annabelle (lee) - By the Sea also has sickeningly ghostly vibes if you can stomach a bit of cabaret in your ghost folk. |
mouldypigeon
05.18.24 | Vashti is the one you play to chase the ghosts away though?
Nico - Desertshore (proto-ghosts) |
Ryus
05.18.24 | Caroliner - Rise of the Common Woodpile

DadKungFu
05.18.24 | Oh shit Big Blood and the Bleedin' Hearts |
