Mumford Sons

I felt the need to post about this (lp). While I really enjoyed their first lp, I am really loving "Babel" even more.
What really stands out to me is the flow of the record. It gets better and better from start to finish. The ability of this record to draw you in and keep you there is pretty remarkable IMO. While maybe not everyone's cup of tea, I'm very excited even after 4 plays completely through. This is one to listen 'through'.

I think it is very similar to Sigh. It could have been recorded during the same time. Kinda like a movie sequel, Babel takes the successful Sigh and expands upon it. I think if you liked Sigh, you will love Babel. Cheers.

With due respect, Toddnkaya, your response is not well received. "I was obsessed with their first album, but on a half hearted listen to the new one, I was thinking, more of the same, not impressed."

Can you explain what I consider a move in "one direction (positive), then another move in a completely separate direction, (negative) in response to the band? Once, you are "obsessed, then you are "not impressed"?

What is going on here? Is it just me?

Much ado about not much. Plain vanilla. You sure don't need high-end gear for this type music.
