“I don’t think it interferes with any of the things I do to have different-genre releases under my belt,” says Minneapolis’s resident folk-punker Joe Bartel, idly dispensing sage punk wisdom over a decent-quality Skype call one October night. “People always want to pin bands and musicians to genres.
