Some Cities is a turbo charged, sonorous assault; at points crunching and urban, sounding like a midnight high-speed joy ride through the industrial beating heart of their hometown city Manchester. The album, Some Cities could only ever have been born in the North of England and is the sound of a full throttle, Doves band. It’s also the sound of the band at their most relaxed and confident, their most driven and fine-tuned. EMI. 2005.
