I'm hearing a lot of stuff on these boards about Doves, so I'm thinking I'm missing out by not giving these blokes a listen. Any song recommendations for a potential Doves fan?

Thanks in advance!

Just buy Lost Souls. :drool:

A good suggestion. :up:

Last Broadcast is good too though, people really seem to be either way on which they like more. I personally think Lost Souls is far and away the best place to start.

I bought Last Broadcast when it first came out and although I really like it, I didn't like it enough to run out and buy Lost Souls. Maybe I should have started with that one -- and maybe I should still get it.

Lost Souls is probably my favourite album by any band.

mine too....actually it's my fav doves song period. they are definately in my top 5 bands of all time. definately my fav right now. like you couldn't tell from my avatar.

pesonally i think that the last broadcast would be a better album to start out with. with songs like pounding and CBTR it's a little more user friendly so to speak.

but if you wanna checkout certain songs first:
rise
catch the sun
the cedar room
sea song
break me gently
here it comes
last broadcast (the song :wink: )
pounding
satellites
caught by the river
there goes the fear
sulphur man
words
black and white town

i didn't list any others from come cities cause it's not released yet but if you wannna d/l them ahead of time try one of these days, snowden and walk in fire :drool:

IMHO...i think last broadcast was the better album in it's entirety but lost souls has better individual songs.
 
either one will be fine. neither will disappoint.

personally i would suggest the last broadcast cause like i said it's a little more user friendly and has a few songs that are a little more mainstream so to speak than lost souls. that's what i found about them when i first became a fan. :shrug:

but it's totally up to you...like i said neither album will disappoint. i :heart: them both equally.

or you can wait til some cities comes out march 1. although i haven't heard all of it people are saying it's a nice mix of the best bits of both their albums. :wink:

i'm not much of a help, am I? :reject:
