Rushmere is rooted in themes of affection, harmony, and prosperity -- the album title is a nod to the Wimbledon Common pub where the bandmembers first cemented their friendships.
On their first album in seven years, the British band keep to familiar territories of Ye Olde England and the dusty Americana that suits their holy-rolling emotional tone.
It's relentless, formulaic and irritating - and although things improve hugely when they drop the bombast on later tracks such as "Where It Belongs", "Blood On The Page" and the gorgeous "Carry On", by then it's almost too late.
RUSHMERE is enough to get fans in seats and have them eager to hear what’s next. For anyone else, Mumford & Sons’ fifth album is an easy skip.
A return to their inglorious past for the British folk rockers comes served with an extra helping of self-indulgence.
We are young (Ho!)
There's a fire in our soul, we go big or go home together
We are young (That's right!)
We’re black and we’re whitе, but we all will be tonight, forevеr
'Cause we will never die
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
No one I know will ever die
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Your mom and dad will never die
I can't bear to hear another song with a guitar duet as the intro.

There’s really nothing crazy about this album or mumford and sons in general to me. Really with the whole “stomp and holler” genre, it’s something that I wouldn’t really mind if it was played in the background, but it’s just too dull and uninteresting to be something I’d actually want to listen to. Considering this, it’s even harder for me to enjoy in a full length LP. There’s just not a lot of value in ... read more

"And that’s it?" Yes. Just an okay album to listen to while doing something else. It’s not annoying, but it doesn’t offer anything particularly exciting either. That said, after Winston Marshall left in 2021 (probably the best musician in the band), I was expecting a total disaster— especially after the release of the horrendous 'Good People'. But thankfully, it didn’t turn out that bad. Still, ... read more
