"The best tracks are from folk artists who rework traditional songs with unexpected settings. Sproatly Smith's Rosebuds in June matches fine, drifting harmony vocals against a quirky backing. Then there's a gently sturdy ballad from Alasdair Roberts, a quietly compelling song from Nancy Wallace, and several bands that veer between the pleasantly spooky and twee".

"The title suggests a link to older, weirder, folk-based matters, and there's a fair bit of that on offer ... It's not a genre, but each track has an adventurousness about it that demands attention; and as a collection of songs that take the widest definition of "folk" - and how broad a church can that be? - and use its elements to make something new and interesting, it's a great introduction that deserves to be a bit of a classic of its kind".
