Does anybody else think the Doves (elbow's bezzy mates) are one of the best bands ever? Smile

I have to agree with you there.

Nope.

They're OK. I've got all the albums but I don't play them too much.

They alllways appear on websites as similar to Elbow. That's all I can say! I reckon my mate will get some eventually and I'll listen then Smile

I bought 'Lost Souls' in a Woollies remainder bin mainly because of the Elbow comparisons, but was a bit disappointed (in fact, it's on my list of CDs to bung on Ebay).

They're not bad (and as a rockier band than Elbow they're certainly better than the likes of Snow Patrol) but nothing I've heard of theirs really seems to stand out that much. Perhaps I need to give them a few more listens.

Doves are good but some of their tracks are skippable. They don't have the same beauty as Elbow sadly but still another good Manc band. 'Words', 'The Cedar Room', 'Caught By The River' and 'Black And White Town' are my favourites.

There's been talks about a new album this fall, but it's just rumours....last I heard the lads were just finished recording some stuff and was going to write some more. I reckon the new albums out either november/december or january 2009
