Release Notes:
The 2nd EP from Mumford & Sons, and just like the debut EP
this also only available in vinyl/digital format to buy. So
enjoy this promo only CD.
Marcus Mumford, he of husky vocals and lead duties in this
band, was Laura Marling's right hand man until very recently.
Forget this however because it's about the 28th most
interesting thing about him. His band of sons are the latest
in the Marling, Pistolet, Noah conveyor belt of London folk
and they are possibly the best yet. Quite how Mumford And Sons
have arrived so fully formed is anyone's guess but the fact
they have is a treat for us all. Having released their debut
EP on Chess Club (It Hugs Back, Arks) in June the band return
with another EP, more assured and even more achingly beautiful
than last time. The music acts as a window into Mumford's
heart, a black and white wheel operated camera into a troubled
soul.
'Little Lion Man' is a vitriolic self portrait reflecting on
the demise of a relationship, 'It was not your fault but mine,
I really ~censored~ it up this time didn't I my dear.� With a
jaunty beat and fast paced rhythm it's easy to let the song
slip by as an upbeat affair but listen closely and you hear a
man tearing himself apart. 'Feel The Tide' is the lyrical
polar but musical twin to the first track, maintaining the
poppy folk sound but infusing it with romantic uplifting
words. The question raised with the bands of this ilk like the
aforementioned Marling, Charlie Fink etc is the legitimacy of
it all. Can a person in their early twenties from a commuter
belt town really tap into and embody a style of music that is
rooted in the 50's and 60's with visionaries like Woody
Guthrie, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan? Personally I believe that
whilst acts like Mumford & Sons et al may have a clear lineage
the passion and emotion that powers their songs is so
impressive and touching that to argue over the origins of the
harmonica and slide guitar seems churlish.
'Hold On To What You Believe' and 'The Banjolin Song' make up
a more morose second half of the EP but that is perhaps M&S
better side. With time to dwell and wallow the words really
resonate and the swelling in the key changes takes on a more
profound effect. It is perhaps too early to predict properly
but I wouldn't bet against Mumford & Sons taking 2009 by
storm.
