Was just checking earlier tonight Doves' site and their Myspace to see when the new album's out but nothing yet:\ohwell:
Dunno bout who's best British band but i do like some of We Are Scientists stuff.Alright , one of their songs.That's all i've heard by them 
Aye i like Ting Tings' latest single.The album's not quite up to scratch from what i've read though

They are no 1 tomorrow.
OK.. but seriously..
give me an hour.
Oh bollox.. Who needs an hour. Its Radiohead. Or the Arctic Monkeys, or Editors, or someone else. The beauty of human choice.
Simply Red, and the Lighthouse Family, should be rounded up and shot though, in a paddock, preferably live on MTV, one by one.
And Phil Collins.

You'd hope so. But they're website hasnt been updated since 2005!
Some Cities was the best British Album of 2005, only Funeral tops it in my book.

I dunno... I'd love Doves to release a new album.
I just watch these two vids, and think only one band out there is wearing the trousers, UK wise.

Kinda hard, as there are so many good Brit bands with new albums (or threatening to send one out)...
Doves Muse Radiohead Arctic Monkeys Bloc Party Editors Portishead
