I just listened to the Moine Dubh series the late Andrew Weatherall produced back in 2015 (@dancing james put me on to it when they released). It's five singles of songs, folk-derived. One is obviously a pseudonym of Andrew, kind of kitcsh pastiche of Americana referencing Native American aesthetic, so on very shaky ground in many ways. But, of course, it's great. There's a kind of Essex Country pretending-to-be-american vibe to some of them, yet there's something rather magical about them all, especially now he's gone.
Can't believe I only listened to it once or twice back in 2015, and now I'm getting into it. I guess buying records does that to you, stuff sometimes gets lost in the pile for a while.
