Folk Punk is what you get when you combine the simplicity and authenticity of Punk Rock with, well, the simplicity and authenticity of Folk Music. Like Punk Rock, the genre leans on Three Chords and the Truth, with simple song structure and an emphasis on sincere or sarcastic lyrics over musicality. It also shares punk's DIY culture and associated production values. Like Folk Music, folk punk makes heavy if not sole use of acoustic instruments, including traditional folk instruments. Generally, Folk Punk is faster and has more of a punky beat than folk music, and is characterized by Harsh Vocals that may be nasal, off-key, or otherwise non-traditional.

Anarchist punk is another subgenre that dips into the Protest Song heritage of folk music to focus on anti-Capitalist and anarchist political messages. Some artists may overlap with Anti-Folk as well.
Compare Street Punk, Alternative Country, Folk Metal.
