I guess I also did not even know that Mumford & Sons are loved by the masses and critically reviled. Are they critically reviled? Is it just Pitchfork? I don't even know that. I think part of the reason is that Mumford & Sons, much like Death Cab for Cutie and Better Than Ezra, have picked a name so bad, it ensures that I will never be able to actually focus on their music. This is true even though I saw them (and don't recall thinking they were detestable) in that movie Big Easy Express, which I mostly enjoyed. You pick a bad band name and you're dead to me. My new band is going to be called #FuckYou.

In my first novel I created a band where the lead singer had a goal of making cutting political commentary, the band was named "Swing to the Left." Get it?
