What does an electrified Mumford and Sons sound like? Less like a thrashing Foo Fighters and more like, well, Coldplay. After announcing its third studio album last week, today (March 9), Mumford and Sons released the lead single from its "electric" album Wilder Mind at iHeartRadio in the U.S. and BBC Radio 1 in the U.K., and "Believe" is nothing like we've ever heard from the guys who brought back folk music into the modern era. -
Back of The Billboards: 'Awaken The Fire' by Like A Storm
Society always celebrates the records that top the Billboard 200 album chart.

Junk Mail: Kelly Clarkson, 'Piece By Piece' Album Review
Piece By Piece is solid, there's no doubting that, but there's no real risk here from Kelly Clarkson, and thus, it's hard to give her any real reward. While she shines in what she knows ("Heartbeat Song"), there's too much of that and too little of interesting pop music that's new here, though the tracks that do reflect that are major stars. -

Junk Mail: Big Sean 'Dark Sky Paradise' Album Review
I think Dark Sky Paradise was a solid effort for Big Sean. I don't think it puts him in the same league as Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole, but I definitely see a lot of Drake similarities as far as the way his style has developed. I think this is just the beginning of a strong career for Sean, who had been floundering for sometime in the hip-hop world, trying to make a name for himself. He can spit with the best of him and his sound has definitely matured. There are a handful of solid hits that I think will help propel him to the next level and give him a new audience. -
