Clipping from the February 3, 1996 Billboard Top 40 chart

The Folk Implosion achieved surprise success in 1995 with the hit single "Natural One" from the soundtrack to the film KIDS. The atmospheric, trippy loop-based sounds gained heavy rotation on alt-radio… and unexpectedly crossed over onto the #Billboard #Top40 chart. #FolkImplosion #OneHitWondered

The Folk Implosion was a Boston area duo of Lou Barlow (also of Sebadoh & Dinosaur Jr) & songwriter John Davis: an early-’90s side project that wandered away from straight indie rock and into grooves, loops, & weird-ass studio tinkering. #FolkImplosion #LouBarlow #johnDavis #OneHitWondered

Just dropped "Natural One" by Folk Implosion on Flashback! 🎧 This '95 indie gem actually helped launch the whole lo-fi movement when Lou Barlow recorded it on his trusty 4-track. That fuzzy sound wasn't a choice, it was necessity! 📼

Take a Look Inside - Clear Clear Vinyl. They say there's always something special about the first time and this record is that first time for the Folk Implosion. The band left the acoustic guitars and fragmentary sketch modus operandi of their earlier cassette behind to focus on an eccentric version of home studio craft, held together by a few cheap microphones (including a Radio Shack PZM) and a Tascam cassette 4-track recorder sequestered under the eaves of a 3rd floor, Cambridge Massachusetts double-decker house apartment. Wood floors and Christmas lights were as much a part of the vibe as an Ampeg VT 40 guitar amp and a small chord organ. The duo would wait until the downstairs neighbor went to work in the morning and then would play until the tunes snapped like a high-pitched snare drum. The setup would close down just before the neighbor came home from work, keeping the peace long enough to see the project through to completion.Once tracked, the band snuck into Fort Apache studios with Tim O'Heir (producer of Sebadoh's 'Bakesale' LP) early one morning, freeloading off the Sebadoh sessions that were set to get going that afternoon. Tim mixed the songs through a very hi-fi Neve board in a matter of hours with the Tascam sitting right on the giant board like a tugboat keeping time with an oil tanker. The duo hoped that the spirits of ancestors like The Troggs, Devo, Al Green, and The Bee Gees would be pleased with the scent of tribute that arose from the ashes of the pyre. Today, they are pleased to see the Slaps and the Sputniks on view again nearly 30 years later.

Listening to Terminal Eyes from Al Stewart’s 1973 album Past, Present and Future - wonder if this track influenced the Folk Implosion sound at all? #nowplaying #alstewart #folkimplosion

A great night out watching the wonderful Folk Implosion in Southampton, got my vinyl signed by Lou, and even had a brief chat with him.

I can’t tell you how excited I am to be introducing my son to the Lou Barlow live canon tonight with #FolkImplosion in a small venue. 😊
