@drr: No such thing. All folk songs date back to challenging medieval times or earlier, and are repressions of the subconscious as relates to pain, survival and death. Any folk song with innocuous lyrics was MADE innocuous (in a process known by some as "Ivesing").

I always disliked the whole "ironic hipster" thing, especially when being ernest is so much harder to actually do and worth much more admiration. It would REALLY bother me if somebody listened to Johnny Cash or Merl Haggard ironically as they do not deserve to be treated to such abuse.
Vero's use of the high bass string (is that what it was?) sure sounds like the 80's to me like the Cure.
