专辑信息：
 
 Album: Sigh No More
 
Artist: Mumford & Sons 
 
Genre: Folk/Bluegrass
 
Label: Island 
 Release Date: 2009.10.05
 
 
专辑介绍：
 
Mumford & Sons乐队成立于2007年的伦敦，乐队中的四名成员都有着自己拿手的乐器，但并不像很多同类型乐队的风格那样传统，他们有着自己对音乐的理解和风格。他们在苏格兰的Folk Country调子下，带出一份摇滚味道，然而这份 Rock Sound并非只属Wah Wah Wah的电结他弹奏，又或加入轰轰作响的鼓击，反而是从他们那份美好旋律带来一份凛冽感觉，同时加入了不少英式传统乐器弹奏，成功将苏格兰调子摩登化！
 
起初乐队只在一些音乐会和颁奖的现场露过面，直到2008年才推出了乐队的首张单曲EP，取得了不错的反响。就在今年他们加盟了知名唱片公司Island，并且推出了这张新专辑。在新专辑的发行前乐队获得了英国的一个叫“BalconyTV”音乐录影带奖的最佳乐队奖的荣誉，也为这张专辑增加了不少的分量~

British four-piece Mumford & Sons has been in the vanguard of something of a UK folk revival since the band formed two years ago and create manly, passionate music which stirs the soul and warms the heart. Sigh No More is an extraordinary debut from a band which has built a committed following through extensive live appearances. Extraordinary not simply because it’s a good album but because it is popularizing a style of music which, other than for the odd halcyon period, is derided as only fit for people who think Fishermen’s smocks, sandals, and Arran sweaters are cool. Relax; this is good enough for you to rattle your pewter tankards to.
 
After three pop song length offerings, “Roll Away Your Stone” extends into four-minute plus territory, where the album remains, other than for one track. There’s a confessional tone to the lyric, which gives way to a full-on bluegrass jam, and the song overall has a proper epic feel to it. The unusual “White Blank Page” has verses in madrigal style played out through Mumford’s husky, careworn tones, which contrast with the rollicking chorus and characteristic intensity in the playing. The next song, “I Gave You All”, doesn’t quite work as well, and the introspection here verges on melodrama. 
 
“Little Lion Man”, which prefigured the album as a single release, is arguably the song that opened up a wider audience for the band in the UK through some serious radio plays and endorsements. It’s a rousing folk anthem of regret and unrequited misfortune: “Tremble, little lion man/You’ll never settle any of your scores/Your grace is wasted in your face/Your boldness stands alone among the wreck”. “Timshel”, by contrast, is stripped down Mumford, a pleasing eulogy with gentle guitar and rich vocal harmonies. There’s a hymnal quality to the song, which is in tune with the biblical references scattered lyrically throughout the record.
 
“Thistle & Weeds” is an epic builder towards what appears to be a full-on finale, only to then conclude in quiet resolution. The next song, “Awake My Soul”, is a particular gem, a soul stirrer, which doesn’t absolutely follow the trademark Mumford & Sons route to goal and stands out because of it. The murderous fable “Dust Bowl Dance” progresses from soft piano led intro into a cataclysmic mash-up with psychedelic overtones. Finally, “After The Storm” provides a reflective ending to the album that neatly mirrors the title track.
  
Sigh No More has a feeling of folk authenticity running through it, even though the protagonists are fundamentally more town than country. It has all to do with the delivery. These guys sound like they mean it, and such passion in music is always a commendable thing. Lyrically, the themes mined here are love’s self-doubt, romance, death, regret, and heartbreak, all crafted with careful consideration. The formula of the elegiac slow-build leading to a strident, rhythmic finale is repeated often but does not ultimately jar. Earnest and sporadically a bit too worthy for its own good, Sigh No More still merits an addition to your “All I want for Christmas” albums list. It has enough commercial gloss, too, to compensate for the rambling, shambling stuff, but will also sound mighty fine when the snow is on the ground and the logs are blazing in your proverbial hearth.
