Meet The New Folk Implosion - Interview 2003. Full Interview, Click Here. For over ten years now Lou Barlow has been releasing music with Sebadoh and the Folk Implosion . It's been a decade which has seen band members come and go, as well as a constantly evolving sound to his music. Now Lou is touring the UK with his new band, The New Folk Implosion , stripping the music down from the drum machine-laden sound of the old Folk Implosion's later material. I caught up with Lou in Nottingham and Leeds to talk about The New Folk Implosion, linguistics, self-discipline, and being Bob Mould . Since John Davis has left the Folk Implosion, you've got together The New Folk Implosion, what are the main differences between the two bands? Well, I didn't want to do a layered, sample driven record, I wanted to totally cut it down and play live again. When John left, was it an amicable departure? Yeah, he'd been drifting out of being involved in music.
