NEWS: Mumford & Sons To Start Again For Second Album

Thursday , 07 Oct 2010

British folk band Mumford & Sons are already talking about creating a follow up to the highly succesful debut album 'Sigh No More' which was nominated for the UK's Mercury Prize this year (best album).

In an interview with NME the band has said they intend to "tear down" everything they've achieved the past year and start from scratch when creating their second album.

"I would like - to an extent - to tear down everything we built with 'Sigh No More' and start again with the second album," declared keyboard player Ben Lovett. "There are things in our lives that carry more weight and substance than simply saying, 'Things are going really well, let's write some songs about that.' There's more to life than the success of this band."

Frontman Marcus Mumford even predicted the band could even face some anger from fans soon.

"We've had a very long honeymoon period," he explained. "I'm sure that people will start disliking us more publicly, because our music is becoming more public and not everyone is going to like it."

Sessions for their second record are scheduled to begin next year.
