Mumford and Sons...

Thanks. I'll give them both a listen. I'm a big fan of the songs I have heard like Little Lion Man and The Cave. I love The Cave. I'm also excited to listen to the new Killers album and I'll probably end up getting that too.
I was in Ireland for the ND / Navy game and Heineken was very popular there as well. On tap at every pub.
Hell yes. I've had this in my car CD player (stop laughing) since June. Tremendous band.
FIFY
And I do enjoy the new album. Do the vocals on this album seem a little more raspy to anyone else? It's not necessarily a bad thing, just different. I wonder if all the touring has taken its toll.

Completely agree. They are trying to rely on their melodies, but it comes out as soft-pop boredom.
I can see a bit more of raspyness in this album, but I kinda like it. One would think touring will take it's toll at some point. They've said that recording albums isn't even their favorite part and that they would tour until they were dead. Seems like a tiring system, hopefully it doesn't effect their sound too much. But still.. really awesome of them to think of the crowd.
I'm not sure how to compare this to Sigh No More. Maybe I need a bit more of a listen to Babel, but there are some awesome tracks on here. They've yet to make a song that I don't like.
But has anyone heard the version of Lover of the Light before this studio-album version? I kinda liked it better.
The new Band of Horses album is quite good also. And I haven't listened to Mumford & Sons extensively yet, but I don't understand the Dylan comparison at all.
