Just wondering if anybody has heard any of the new stuff by the Doves yet?
Anyone dowloaded the album or owt, hows it looking?? Are they on for a hat trick of great albums?

Re: The Doves

the new single is pretty good but fades in places though has an interesting out of tune piano riff - the vocals are far too xfm freindly though

Re: The Doves

It is a very xfm friedly song but i do love it anyway. Just because a band is played on xfm doesnt mean one should dislike them. The video is rather cool, but it reminds me of Pounding.

Re: The Doves

I haven't heard it yet, but I am keeping some deadly nightshade caplets handy in case the worst happens.

Re: The Doves

I quite like it... in the same way that i quite liked everything else i've heard of them.

Re: The Doves

I don't think it quite reaches the heights of There Goes The Fear or Pounding, hopefully the album will be better.

Re: The Doves

heights? depths.

Re: The Doves

It's good but not as astonishing as something like Pounding or The Cedar Room. But by the sounds of things the album could be very good indeed.

Re: The Doves

I think your being a little optimistic. The two songs you just picked out are amazing- the new single really pales in comparison.

Re: The Doves

you can see the video for the single on the nme website http://www.nme.com/features/111051.htm. Its ok, i don't think its as good as the stuff off the first 2 albums but it may grow on me.

Re: The Doves

I really like it, sounds a bit more instant - like the first album rather than the last one. A third great album I hope.

Re: The Doves

Ah, Doves are another band you're not supposed to like. But I always thought they were good. I'm hoping for the best.
