Sigh No More album for sale Product Description
English folk outfit Mumford & Sons' full-length debut owes more than a cursory nod to bands like the Waterboys, the Pogues, and the Men They Couldn't Hang. The group's heady blend of biblical imagery, pastoral introspection, and raucous, pub-soaked heartache may be earnest to a fault, but when the wildly imperfect Sigh No More is firing on all cylinders, as is the case with stand-out cuts like "The Cave," "Winter Winds," and "Little Lion Man," it's hard not to get swept up in the rapture. ...See Full Description

| Perfection in carnate Every song is fluent and meaningful, Lyrically genious, and full of soul By shawn_wickstrom (Humansville, MO, USA)  This review is for a different format. |
| F Bomb alert I was becoming a fan of Mumford & Sons from a few of their appearances on TV. I got "Sigh No More" as a gift and was enjoying the music until "Little Lion Man," which included the F word in the refrain. With all the talented writing, it is amazing they took the low road on this one. For me, it really takes away from enjoying the whole album. My interest to go back and play it often has gone down to near-zero. By tourer (central Florida, USA) This review is for a different format. |
| Hopefully a sign o'more Out of left field comes this brilliant work--profound, prophetic-- their various eclecticisms all rising together into an organic musical force as compelling as any in recent memory. By Jesse (Bunnell, Florida)  This review is for a different format. |
| Amazing I love the songs, it speaks out to you. By lam_toni (Toronto)  This review is for a different format. |

Babel Vinyl LP (2012)
Sigh No More songs English folk revivalists Mumford & Sons' 2009 debut, Sigh No More, boarded the slowest train it could find on its journey from regional gem to pleasantly surprising, international success story. After simmering and stewing throughout the U.K. and Europe, the band landed boots first at the Staples Center for a rousing performance at the 2011 Grammy Awards that found the smartly dressed quartet tearing through "The Cave," and then backing, along with the equally snappy Avett Brothers, Bob Dylan on a generation-spanning rendition of "Maggie's Farm" that provided one of the better Grammy moments of the last decade or so. They may lack the lyrical prowess of "The Bard," but they know how to turn a phrase, plant a seed, and build a bridge and tear it back down again without losing the audience in the process. Simply put, they can bend the relative simplicity of traditional folk music to their ...

Of Monsters And Men My Head Is an Animal Vinyl LP (2012)
Sigh No More album for sale In 2012, Of Monsters and Men reissued their first Icelandic album, first published in 2011, for stateside release with new artwork and an alternate track list. Two songs, "Mountain Sound" and "Slow and Steady," were added for My Head Is an Animal. Either album serves as a good introduction to the six-piece's theatrical bombast, robust instrumentation, and sweet guy/girl harmonies. Those who find the emotional spirit of Arcade Fire endearing, and appreciate accordions and trumpets with their rock, will find a lot to like here.
