- I-Mumford & Sons yi-quartet yaseLondon esekwe ngo-2007. Baquka uMarcus Mumford (izwi, isiginci, igubu le-bass, itamborini), u-Ben Lovett (iibhodi zezitshixo), Country Winston (banjo, dobro, electric guitar) kunye noTed Dwane ( amazwi, iibass ezimbini). UMumford ukwangumdlali wegubu kwiqela likaLaura Marling. Le nombolo ye-anthem yayiyeyona iphambili kwi-albhamu yabo yokuqala Uncwine . Nangona kunjalo ingoma yomculo eqhutywa yi-expletive-driven chorus yahlolwa kunomathotholo.
- UMarcus Mumford wachaza le ngoma kudliwano-ndlebe lukaJanuwari 2010: 'Libali lobuqu, ngoko ke andizukunaba kakhulu. Kwanele ukuthi, yayiyimeko ebomini bam endandingonwabanga ngayo okanye ndandinebhongo ngayo… kwaye ngamanye amaxesha xa ungakwazi ukuchaza imvakalelo ngamazwi akho, kuba lula ukuyivakalisa engomeni. Kwaye ke, xa ubuzwa malunga neengoma, kunzima kakhulu ukuchaza. Yindunduma-awufuni ukubonakala ungonwabanga uzicacisa; kusoloko kunzima. Yinto engaqhelekanga kwakhona, kuba ayikhe ibenzima ukuzicula. Ndicinga ukuba ingoma kufuneka izimele kwaye abantu bathathe intsingiselo yabo kumagama. Kodwa kum, ngokobuqu, ngamazwi endiwaphulaphulayo ngokuphindaphindiweyo kwingoma. Ndibeka ukubaluleka okuthe ngqo kubo. Andikwazi ukubhala amagama ngaphandle kokuba ndiziva ngokwenene kwaye ndithetha ngawo, nto leyo ngamanye amaxesha inokukhathaza kakhulu - kuba ukuba awuziva kakhulu ngelo xesha, ubambekile.
Ndiyaqikelela ukuba isandi sayo sikubambe kancinci ngasezibhola - yingoma endlongondlongo, ingqindilili ngakumbi ebusweni. Okanye ubuncinci, kwizinto zethu, kunjalo-izinto zethu ezininzi azibethanga nzima kangako. Kwakubonakala ngathi ingoma efanelekileyo ukuba ibe yeyodwa ngenxa yokuba imele icala elinzima, elimnyama lezinto esizenzayo, kwaye kwangaxeshanye, icala lesintu kunye ne-punchy.' - I-Triple J Hot 100 yase-Australia- olona voto lukhulu lomculo ehlabathini, ngeevoti ezingaphezulu kwe-800,000 efakiweyo- ibhengeze le ngoma ka-2010 ngomda ongazange ubonwe ngaphambili.
- Ngokuphathelele i-F-bomb emangalisayo kwi-chorus ('Inene ndiyifakile ngeli xesha'), uMarcus Mumford wathi: 'Asizange sibeke ingoma kwi-albhamu. Kwakukho abantu beshishini ababebuza, 'Ngaba kukho nayiphi na indlela onokubhala ngayo igama elahlukileyo? Siya kwenza nantoni na.' Sayizama yabe imbi nje, ayizange isebenze tu. Kodwa ngoku nabazali bam bayavumelana nam. Umama uthethelela oku ebantwini: 'Alikho elinye igama elifanelekileyo, kufuneka libe lelo!'
