In another episode from the vault (aka it took us forever to get around to editing it), Luke and Matt tackle Mumford and Sons' first album, Sigh No More, which burst them onto the scene in late 2009. Spoiler alert: they both like it.

Episode 20: Sigh No More - Mumford and Sons

Ever showed your dad or maybe your benevolent but somewhat stuck up grandma some new music that you've found? And you're really excited about it, maybe this up-and-coming band that just makes you feel some kind of way, and you show your dad or grandma but you're met with that stuck-up response: "this isn't real music." <br />Here at Not Real Music, we embrace the concept of being rejected. Being misfits, being outcasts, being losers. And on the Not Real Music podcast, we look at albums made by some of those misfits and losers, and we tell you what we think about it, with only one disclaimer: these are our opinions and nothing more. We stand by the truth that art is relative to taste, and we're simply here to appreciate some of that art with you. <br />Our hosts Luke and Matt, formerly known as the Donut Dudes, come to you to review one album per week, with two collective episodes breaking down said albums coming out on Tuesdays and Fridays, respectively. Tuesdays they do overview episodes, talking about the history of the artist and taking a bit of a broad approach as they talk about the album, and on Fridays, they'll break down the album track by track. Soon enough, you'll find yourself thinking Tuesday is the new Friday, and that Friday is also the new Friday.
