Love! I didn't really expect to love this as much as I do. I knew I'd love it. But I love it!!! Their songs are really very lovely. They remind me of Iron and Wine in the way that their lyrics are poetry. I'm still sorting and learning but there are some very early favorites.
1- Not With Haste- Love Love Love.
2- I Will Wait - I must have something with getting attached to the first song I hear off an album because I have been in love with this song since the first time I heard it. I remember exactly where I was when I heard it and I still can't get enough.
3- Lover Of The Light - This song gets in my bones. And watching live videos of them performing it makes me sooo excited.
4- Ghosts That We Knew - It's so hard to put these songs in an order cause I love this one so much. Lovely lyrics.
5- Below My Feet - ♥♥ Thanks SNL for making me fall in love! This song was written for me I think. Makes me think of my lil awakening time. And makes me teary.
6- Lovers Eyes - Perfect
7- The Boxer - I have always loved this song. Even the Simon and Garfunkel version. But this song was made for them. I LOVE it!!
8- Reminder - His voice is charming. HE is charming and I love this song!
9- For Those Below - Should not be at the bottom!! This lil song makes me happy!!
10- Where Are You Now - Sad but awesome
11- Babel - I'm gonna say this one more time. These songs should ALL be at the top cause they're all fucking amazing!
12- Hopeless Wanderer - Love the way he says wanderer :) And I love this song!
13 - Holland Road - Catchy and awesome!
14- Broken Crown - This song reminds me of something that would be on Game of Thrones which of course makes me love it even more!!
15- Whispers In The Dark - Only because I haven't listened to it as close as all the others for some reason.
I will say this...it's still early for both of these albums. A month isn't very long so this could be taken back in the near future but...I am so surprised because out of the two: Mumford and Sons - Babel and The Avett Brothers - The Once and Future Carpenter, I think Babel is my favortie. And that kinda blows my mind. Didn't expect that. This is one of the best records I've ever heard, honestly. They are soooo great. EXCITING!!!
