Hot new band of the moment according to Rolling Stone? A band rock nyc has trashed for months now (we made them Ramona’s embarassing song on their Ipod)) Mumford And Sons.
Mark E. Smith, the leader of the Fall is with us on this one. Here he is discussing the terible, terrible band with Quietus: “”We were playing a festival in Dublin the other week. There was this other group, like, warming up in the next sort of chalet, and they were terrible. I said, ‘Shut them cunts up!’ And they were still warming up, so I threw a bottle at them. The bands said, ‘That’s the Sons of Mumford’ or something. ‘They’re number five in charts!’ I just thought they were a load of retarded Irish folk singers.”
