Almost Forgot Myself - Doves - Some Cities - 2005

Of all of the "Radiohead Clones", Doves are probably the ones I enjoy/respect the most. They are generally sonically interesting, have a good sense of melody and the typical Mancunian ability to make every song sound like it's raining outside. Plus there is a certain quality to Jimi Goodwin's voice that I can never quite put my finger on. He sounds like someone...or reminds me of someone. His voice is almost too smooth. Like the song you are listening to is almost easy listening, except vastly more interesting and aggressive.

I don't know...it works for me.
