The iTunes Store classifies On the Drift as
folk, although filk is
probably more accurate. Filk, as most every SF or fantasy con-goer
knows, is what happens when folk meets fen, which may or may not be
the plural of fan. And the Bedlam Bards are clearly fen, for
who else would produce an entire album of f*lk music based on the
Jossverse. And not even the whole Jossverse; just the parts we know
as Firefly and Serenity. Of course, how much you
like On the Drift depends greatly on how you feel about the
Big Damn Heroes. Unless you haven't made up your mind about them or,
can it be true?, have yet to encounter Cap'n Mal and his motley crew.
In which case I'm sure there's somebody willing to share their
Firefly DVDs. After all, can't have them Scapers being more
generous than Browncoats, can we? That would be wrong. (But true.)
