I always thought Doves were a cut above their bargain basement Britpop brethren. They don't stop at riffs-- they have grooves, too. But it's been a while since their last album, 2005's Some Cities. Admittedly, I haven't thought about them much the last four years, but I'll welcome news of their new album and single all the same.The grit: The fourth Doves album, Kingdom of Rust, will be released on April 6 in the UK and a day later on Astralwerks in the U.S. The trio are playing a few UK dates in advance of the album's release, as well. A U.S. tour will follow later in the spring.You can download first single "Jetstream" for free at the group's newly revamped website.
