Sixteen Horsepower – Folklore – VINYL

With “Folklore,” 16 Horsepower delve deeper into their dark, spiritual reinterpretation of American and Eastern European traditional music. The album blends original material with transformative covers, reshaping folk roots into stark, ritualistic and emotionally charged soundscapes. Banjo, cello, hurdy-gurdy and bandoneon create an archaic sonic world elevated by David Eugene Edwards” haunting vocals. The Oxblood Vinyl Edition presents this landmark recording in a striking new format, coinciding with the band”s 2026 European reunion tour, performed for the first time in 20 years by the original core line-up. Folklore remains one of their most defining works – brooding, hypnotic and deeply evocative, dissolving the boundaries between myth, tradition and modern alternative music.
