Mumford & Sons

I'll take a link. The wife has been going on about this band lately and she likes what she hears.
In fact she's been raving on about them, so I'm keen to see what the fuss is about too.

Just thought I'd let you know that Mumford & Sons' Little Lion Man took the #1 spot in Triple J's 'Hottest 100' which is run every Australia Day. It's basically a list of the Hottest 100 songs released in 2009, as voted by listeners of Triple J (Australia's most major alternative radio station). Most of you will have no idea what I'm talking about but it's a pretty big thing over here and to get to number one is a fair effort. So, yay.

I knew it would take the top spot from the beginning, happy for them. I really hate Parlez Vous Francais though, can't stand that it came in at number two.

Yeah same, I knew it would get top spot as well with the amount of airplay and hype it's been getting here.

To be honest I was pretty disappointed with most of the list though, but that's a whole other story.

Yeah I listened to the Top 100 when it was played.

I would've liked Lisa Mitchell and Muse to be placed a bit higher, but I do think that Little Lion Man deserved the top spot.

My favorite songs from the album are "Sigh No More", "White Blank Page", "Thistle & Weeds", and "Dust Bowl Dance".

I love their debut album, I want another. GIVE ME MOAR MUMFORDS! They're one of the few bands from here I really like at the moment, I hope they can get better and not slowly decline.

I've just recently downloaded Sigh No More and am really in love with it. They tend to be a bit cheesy and I think if I'd heard this album at a different point in time I may have passed it up, but I feel like I found it at exactly the right time. Really, really great stuff.

I feel exactly the same. I love the fact that it's just simple, uncomplicated good music so, with that, I've got pretty high hopes that they can develop from what they are now and not have reached their pinnacle with their debut. I am doing my best to not over play the album and ruin it for myself...As I've done with so many...

I have actually owned the Mumford and Sons cd for ages. I however lost it when my laptop broke. Yet to download it again, sigh

Anyways. Yeah I love them. Haven't listened to them in ages so I can't remember what exactly it is I love about them
