Thanks dale.

I really liked "Lost Souls" when it came out. I never listened to "Last Broadcast" for some reason.

I remember trying with "Some Cities" but after about 3-4 spins it never really resonated. Actually, that record is prime for me giving it another shot.

I'll check out the new one.......but my expectations are low.

I'm pretty much in this camp. I liked a couple songs off Last Broadcast, but had no staying power.

I like Jetstream alot, I can see myself really loving it over time.

These two new songs are really good, but i have a beef with Doves, South, Interpol etc.

On all three of these bands' debuts, there was a mood to them that none of the three have been able to duplicate since. When i think of listening to "Sea Song" and "Rise" they really took the listener on a journey.

The same can be said for the band, South, who had an amazing debut, and now are decent, and likeable, but sound less creative/absorbing.

I will always want to see Doves live, and will love it, but IMO they have yet to replicate, or more correctly worded, capture the feel and emotion of Lost Souls.

I really dont want to hear country tinged Doves. I want sea-spray, open-moody take-your-head on a journey music.

I tend to agree with this sort of; The Cedar Room and Sea Song are the best songs that Doves have done and probably will ever do, but I think Lost Souls tails off quite a bit after that, to the point where Last Broadcast is the stronger album over all. Having said that, I lost interest after Last Broadcast , maybe because I was hoping/expecting for another Cedar Room and it wasn't delivered. Didn't get Cities and probably won't go out of my way to get the new one, though I think the song that was linked starts off weakly but gets better as it progresses.

The Outsiders reminds me a lot of earlier Secret Machines, and in a good way.

I've really enjoyed the first 5 tracks but haven't gone past that jusy yet. I don't feel bad for liking them (Doves that is).

This isn't bad on first pass. It takes a few songs to get going but I can see this growing on me over repeat listens.

I played it 2x through and I really think it is. I picked up on a few more things the second time through and I'd bet probably more if I wasn't working and splitting my attention.

cool. not that i was thinking it's bad in any way, just real low key. but yeah, this one is begging for a good headphones listen.

this prins thomas remix of kingdom of rust is pretty cool though.

OPA! · **Posted:** Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:35 pm

It's decent enough to give it another listen.

We'll see... there are already some tracks I really like (this happens, and then 2 weeks later, I hate the same tracks). So far, really digging "Winter Hill" and "The Outsiders." Only about halfway through so far...

edit: "Birds Flew Backwards" is nice, and "Compulsion" is good, but I felt like it was kinda meandering. Need to listen to it a few more times...

I'm with you on Winter Hill & The Outsiders d. Also 10:03 is brilliant. Love how it builds, and the drumming is ace.

Dalen · **Posted:** Thu Mar 26, 2009 12:16 pm

yeah, this is definitely a headphone album. listening to it now for the first time this way and it's revealing soooo many layers. the guitar playing and fx are pretty incredible. the production is huge on this album.

Too soon to compare to their earlier stuff for you? I know you're a fan and am curious how you stack it up with the others.

hmmmm.

at this point, i like this about the same as Some Cities, which is my 3rd favorite.

On my second listen. Kingdom of Rust is a really good song. Very solid album, definitely a grower.

New Doves album!!!
