You have to hand it to the guy — he's managed to make being the banjo player in Mumford & Sons the second-most embarrassing thing about him.

I used to like Mumford and Sons songs until I found out they were British. Was like finding out Santa isn't real.

I did not know that, but I feel relieved to have critiqued their music years ago when someone played it. Felt like they would be open to right wing, rightist popular, national focused content with some sprinkles of misogyny.

Fun fact - the producer of the new Depeche Mode album said this in an interview a couple of months ago:

“Well, the one I wish I’d never done was that fucking Mumford record [2015’s ‘Wilder Mind’]! [...] “I don’t know why I did that. It paid for my house but it’s the record I regret doing.”
