Mumford and Sons Will Release New Album on September 24

Mumford and Sons will release their new album on September 24. The British folk band revealed in an interview with Dutch pop/rock radio station 3FM that their hotly anticipated follow up to Sign No More is almost complete. The group have once again collaborated with producer Markus Dravs on the record and frontman Marcus Mumford previously revealed they were in no rush to finish it because they wanted to make sure it wasn't "s**t."

"I think we just want the songs to be good, and to sound right, and to feel like we've expressed everything as straightforwardly and honestly as we can. We're done recording it. But if we listen back while we're mixing and discover it's s**t, we'll just start again," he said.

Mumford and Sons Evolving on Second Album

Mumford and Sons second album will be an "evolution not a revolution."

"The Cave" group spent most of the last year in the US touring their debut album, Sigh No More but have moved back to the UK and reunited with producer Markus Dravs for their second album, as they want to build on the sound they have created.

"We want an evolution not a revolution. We've been recording in Britain to keep the British identity intact. It's been amazing for us in America, unexpected about how much they've embraced us here, but they haven't bought our souls," said singer Marcus Mumford.

The band have debuted some of their new songs live, but are keeping their recording sessions secret, with only two people outside of the band having heard the completed new tracks. "Everyone's just letting us get on with it. The only people that have heard it are Dravs, our manager and us. No-one else has been involved in the process, so It means that we might have completely f***ed it up," Marcus added.
