Not the biggest fan of Mumford, but they do have a few good songs. Definitely will check out some new material from them.

This looks promising! They're going with the full band set-up, which should be interesting direction for them. Hopefully this is the darker, heavier material they were promising back before Babel was released.

I was wondering when they'd put out a new album.

Really not a fan of this band. I kinda liked that first single that smashed on all the charts, but they hardly even play it nowadays. Come to think of it, niether do I.

Their new album is called Wilder Mind and it will be released on May 4 (I assume US release is one day later). It's available for pre-order on iTunes back here in Singapore, but I don't see it in the UK or US iTunes stores yet.

I can't wait! It'll be hard to top I Will Wait which was a huge smash.

Did the FF announce everything so far in advance? Seems odd to drop the deets, get people excited and then nothing for two months.

Babel was atrocious, so I'm hoping they can rebound with this one.

We only heard Something from Nothing in October before the album was released a month later (Preorder on iTunes was available in August/September IIRC). Mumford & Sons similarly put the album on pre-order on iTunes recently and the lead single is only arriving a week before the album release |

If the lead single is indeed "Believe"...
Hot Staind and hot The Bravery remake!
(Never heard The Bravery song but I know they had an alternative hit in 2008)

Yes, and that was far superior to Staind's alternative hit in 2008 of the same name.

Anyway, back to the Mumfords, I'm also looking forward to the new single. Will do well on both Alternative and AAA.

That preview sounded really good. Amazing, actually. If this is the route they take on this album then I can safely say it will be the best thing they've ever done.
Therefore, I am excited for this as well. Probably the only indie-folk band I was able to get into (although the song snippet sounds quite heavier than indie-folk).

Finally listened to it on Spotify and it's better than the Staind song Yeah no doubt, that's like stating that pizza is better than wax beans...there's just no comparison. Staind's "Believe" is by far the biggest joke of an alternative #1 song ever. Totally out of place and very uninspired. |
