Record of the Week: Doves 'Jetstream'



Of course, the Doves are one of my favourite bands ever so it is difficult for me to remain objective. I was so excited when I was directed to their website for a free download of one of the tracks from their forthcoming new album ‘Kingdom of Rust’ that is out on the 6th of April. The track that is currently being offered through their website (here) - be quick - is the opening title of the new album and as best described in their own words “being fans of the Vangelis film score, 'Blade Runner', (they) always wanted to write an imaginary song for the closing credits on Ridley Scott's classic... It's called Jetstream”. The best is always coming from Manchester!

ust a small update. 2009 is such a promising year compared to 2008. Every other day gets me excited with the announcement of a new thrilling release. The Bjork boxset with limited artwork, the 15x7" War Child boxset and so on. Regarding the Doves, their next single 'Kindom of Rust' is going to be issued as 3 different and very limited 12" with remixes from Prins Thomas and The Glimmers! A wedding in heaven! Can't wait...
