Doves

Instead of documenting new music I’ve been listening to, I thought I’d give a shout out to an old favorite.

Doves!*

Doves is allegedly coming out with a new album on 6/24. I say allegedly, because only a few people claim this, none of which are the Doves nor their label. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’s true. It’s been three way too long years since Some Cities.

In February, Andy (the drummer) blogged, saying they’ve already recorded 5 tracks. He also posted adorable photos of his new baby. You know how all babies kind of look alike? His baby looks decidedly British.

Here are some of my favorite Doves tracks.



I thought to be super cheesy I’d add a countdown to the right column. Ha! Love it! Thanks to Matt for helping me with the code.


*! added by me. Considering how many bands these days add ! in the middle of their names, I thought it was necessary to explain. I kind of like the idea of a band name that includes an animal plus "!". Lemurs! Meerkats! Ants!
