Advantages: deeply moving

Disadvantages: none as yet

For those of a Doves persuasion I would make you this one declaration. Get to see them live. The Lost Souls Lp will surely be the album of 2000 but having witnessed the live set at the cockpit in Leeds a couple of months back, the LP captures none of the intensity or soul of the band.

What struck me too was the amazing versatility of the band. In between the song lead singers playing guitars became drummers became bass players. At no point did you feel there was a change in drive or vibe.

IT is to be hoped that at this years festivals the same brooding intensity can be replicated. They will be sure to pick up where the poppy Travis and limited Oasis seem to be losing faith and following.
