Doves - Kingdom of Rust
New Album coming out April..
I wasn't able to get the song from the doves webpage, but it's playing here http://www.yourfilehost.com/media.ph...=jetstream.mp3 Thankfully though the record we've been slaving over is finally ready for the floor. It' called "Kingdom of Rust" and it's released by our friends at the Heavenly Recordings label on (April 6th). The title track is out as a single the week before (March 30th). The tracklisting for the record is: "Jetstream" / "Kingdom Of Rust" / "The Outsiders" / "Winter Hill" / "10.03" / "The Greatest Denier" / "Birds Flew Backwards" / "Spellbound" / "Compulsion" / "House Of Mirrors" / "Lifelines" Our new site is up and running (http://www.doves.net ) - you can get a free download of album opener "Jetstream" by joining the mailing list. There's a nice little map that shows where the track is getting downloaded from, so tell your mates in far off places to get on it * we'll buy the person in the furthest flung place a pint * honest. |

Very cool! Thanks for the info.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
Good to hear. "Some Cities" was a bit of a let down, but I still hold "The Last Broadcast" & "Lost Souls" as two of my favorites of the last decade.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
I stumbled across the announcement earlier this morning and it made my day. Doves are the closest thing I have to a favorite band.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
wow. I loved Some Cities, it was also the first tour that I saw them on live.
The new song I think is fantastic. I can't wait to hear the full album, and will really look forward to seeing them live again. They are touring the US of A. |

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
If I can make time, I'm going to have to get to that show at The Vic. I was supposed to go to their show there during the Some Cities tour and came down with a mean case of the flu the day of the show. I saw them at the Austin City Limits Festival a couple years back and think it'd be awesome to see them at a smaller venue.
Somewhat unrelated, but I saw The Veils' new album comes out on 4/6 as well, so I'll be getting new music from two of my three favorite UK bands that day. Sweet. |
Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
I hope there a couple of songs on the new album similiar to 'The Man Who Told Everything' - one of the few songs where Jimi displays his singing ability to dramatic effect. Didn't care for 'Some Cities'.

I could go to either of these, but I have no idea how they are live.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
heard the single this morning on Radio 1, can't say it wowed me, musically it's good, but Jimi's voice warbles and sounds like he's swallowed a cup of marbles.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
^ I'm moody
got an email today from Amazon that Astralwerks has dropped the double CD/DVD combo release. Looks like you'll have to go the import route if you want the video portion. CDWow has it for $17.49 |
Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
Here's a track by track review of the album.* Sounds fantastic!http://thequietus.com/articles/01287...-the-new-album

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
That review makes it sound like "The Last Broadcast" pt.2. Which is a win for me.
|
Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
well "now" the CD/DVD UK edition was just recently cancelled.
|
Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
I got to hear an advance copy that a radio station friend had over the weekend, and thought it was decent. Nothing particularly mind blowing, but at least consistent with what they've done before. I'll still be buying it when it hits stores.

Re: Doves - Kingdom of Rust
Listened to about half of this tonight before turning it off; nothing very interesting about it. The songs just seem to exist without having any real purpose, if that makes any sense. I loved Lost Souls and the bonus disc that came with Broadcast, but little else from them has 'clicked' for me.
The new Veils album -- which I'm glad someone here mentioned! -- on the other hand is quite good. :up: |
