Simplicity and sincerity: I thrive off everything derived from these. I pick up their nuances so easily, it's like second-nature to me. Ranging from what I wear, indulge in to just about everything. In this instance, however, I've got the pretty, delicate and filled with melancholy sounds of Mumford & Sons playing in the background of the room I'm in... and in my head.
I love their music! It's simple, in the entire meaning of the word, with trombone flourishes and banjo picking in essence of the anthemic folk sounds. Sincere in lyrics, that are intertwined with passion, intimacy and enthusiasm; presented in tinges of courage or sweet or hopeful tones with subtle connotations of religious riddles here and there.
When listening to their genius, I'm overcome with images blended in fervour and memories as each note and word is sung. With a leading vocal so raw, you feel it ripping at the layers of your skin, delving deep into your innermost until you find yourself, unsuspectingly, lost in all its honesty.
Their lyrics carries poetical inclinations too, filled with metaphors and exposing a vulnerability and fragility - my favourite type of music to listen to, and listen to again, to listen to over and over, that vulnerable. In elaboration: that you're drawn to cusps of losing your breath in the same moments as your eyes being brimmed with hot tears.
Anyways, Mumford & Sons' music is commanding and I'm looking forward to their new album so that I could tweet away my fav' lines from their songs. Each of their songs render something majestical to me, I love them all individually and as a collective the album is just magical. I Gave You All, however, deserves a special mention and this is it.
Musing over.
