| 2.0 poor | judasgoat | May 15th 15 | On Wilder Mind, Mumford & Sons' reckless experimentation ultimately gets the better of them, and leads to the songs being massively overstuffed with material. Whether it's the Merzbowian harsh noise that overtakes Tompkins Square Park, the Gregorian chants in Broad-Shouldered Beasts, or the self-described "audio Pagan ritual" that is Snake Eyes, the album is just too absorbed in itself to forge any kind of meaningful connection. "I don't even know if I believe/Everything you're trying to say to me," Marcus Mumford screams, in an ear-piercing screech high-pitched enough to break glass. And in that screech, he sums up my thoughts on Wilder Mind succinctly.

| 1.5 very poor | TheMoonchild | May 12th 15 | Wilder Mind is an album that reminds you of how wrong you were in the past to hate Mumford for partying like it's 1865. Because even worse is the sound of them partying like it's 2009 or whatever year Kings of Leon were even relevant.

| 2.5 average | DustyTill | May 5th 15 | Damn it, I was expecting a deathgrind album with all this electric stuff.

| 3.5 great | Emmeggi | February 14th 17 | I'm not a real fan of this band or of the banjo in particular, so I don't care for it, but I like this album.

| 1.0 awful | ShaquilleONeal | February 4th 17 | I mean hey, if this band can become successful by recreating the same damn album more than once, then why not?

| 1.0 awful | BrushedRed | May 12th 15 | This is one of those times that I wish I could make 0.0 my official rating. I loved Sigh No More probably more than
I should have and Babel was alright but this is just awful. Washed up Coldplay wannabes (except maybe worse).
(And I hate Coldplay). Parentheses.

| 3.5 great | beachdude | May 2nd 15 | Nothing ground-breaking by any means, but overall a fairly enjoyable indie rock record. The opening and closing
strings of songs are easily the strongest material here, and although the middle section drags the majority of the
album is still much more palatable than their prior work.
