They already are in most critical circles. I just read an article from a music site I read titled "In Defense of Mumford and Sons" which was basically a defense of them from all the critical backlash.

Will have to listen to more Avett Brothers. Heard a few but they were slower songs. Liked them but they seemed a little different. Overall I was pretty happy with the songs that were chosen to be played this year. More songs with actual effort and thought put into them. Gotta be happy that some of these bands are getting attention even if there are others beyond them that deserve it. |

[QUOTE=Cave Johnson;9392869]Nickleback has some good songs, as long as they aren't actually performing them.
Nickleback is one of my dirty little secrets. I love them and I would guess most people that have seen them live would say they put on a great show. It's cool to say "Nickleback sucks", but I still think they rock. |

I like Adele and glad she's the darling of music today, but I still think her best was Chasing Pavements (before the acclaim).

My main problem with M&S is that we have a perfectly good American group in the Avett Brothers who do the same thing, better. But it takes some Brits to regurgitate Americana in order for it to find popular appeal. It's like the Brit invasion all over again.
