I've heard in a long time. Mumford & his "Sons" really know what they're doing. I love the recent trend towards folk oriented sounds and most of the bands involved are among my favorites. I took a listen to this band and found a sound that has a little more gruffness to it and that brings to mind the old Clancy Brothers Drinking-songs/Sea Chantys/Songs of Rebellion kind of feel. It's not at all hard to imagine the boys tearing it up in a village pub in some northern town. I can't explain how, but something about them reminds me of The Band, don't ask me why. This is well worth having, and I recommend it highly.
Very nice arrangements of catchy melodies and meaningful lyrics. This is something to play in the background or listen to intently.
The songs tend to build up and have a great way of coming to a conclusion.
I love folk music and this album is great! I can listen all the way through then go back and replay a few of my favorites without getting bored! If you like folk, take a listen... you won't be disappointed!
Having come out in October in the U.K. and most everywhere else, Mumford & Son's debut album Sigh No More is without a doubt one of the best albums I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. The London-based quartet will sweep you...
