Limited edition pressing of their third includes a bonus DVD (NTSC/Region 0) unavailable on US pressing. The bonus DVD features a short film (approx 11 mins) of the 'making of' the album titled Cities Under Construction, plus a photo gallery (set to an exclusive album instrumental) and the Director's Cut of the video for Black and White Town by acclaimed Director Lynne Ramsay. If the first two Doves albums, Lost Souls and The Last Broadcast, were records that sounded like they were conceived in Glastonbury-like vast open plains, each number a snapshot of the wide open countryside or of the rolling sea, then their third album, Some Cities, paints altogether different pictures. At points it's crunching and urban, sounding like a midnight high-speed joy ride through the industrial beating heart of the city (most noticeably on the turbo charged first single Black and White Town). At others, it's like a long lost soundtrack to some early '60s kitchen sink drama (Someday Soon, Shadows of Salford). 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. Some Cities arrives almost three years after The Last Broadcast. Conceived as a shorter, more forceful record than its two predecessors, the record was written primarily in cottages and holiday rents around the UK (Snowdonia, Darlington and Youlgreave in the Peak District) and recorded with Ben Hillier (producer of Blur's Think Tank and Elbow's Cast of Thousands) in Liverpool, Brixton and Loch Ness. EMI. 2005.
