Mumford & Sons silent no more about new album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 17 February 2012
Folk troupe Mumford & Sons have so far kept fairly, well… mum on the subject of a sequel to their 2009 debut ‘Sigh No More’. Well, no more. The band’s Ben Lovett has told us all. Well, he’s spoken in very vague terms about some of the new songs they’ve written, many of which have been previewed during recent live shows.
Lovett told MTV: “We are in the final stages. We’re not finished; we don’t quite know the exact tracklisting. But we have kind of road-tested some songs, and we have picked up some new songs, and dropped some ones that people might have thought we were going to be putting on the record. We just want to make a record that’s cohesive and one that we feel represents us best right now”.
As to a release date: “We can’t tell you. There just isn’t one yet. We can’t even say that any particular song is definitely on the record, because we just don’t know. But we’re being urgent with it, we’re trying very hard”.
