They sound the same to my untrained ear. They use more strings I suppose. Got brothers in the line up. Doves will be kicking themselves for being born too soon. They could be having bucks roll in off John Lewis now.

Haven't elbow been around for longer than the doves?
I dunno. Its not a diss on Elbow I just think they are uncannily similar to Doves, Maybe just goes to show timing is everything. Elbow have naybe developed their sound. They used to play Womad festivals so maybe they have just put the graft in and found their niche.
Here's Doves before they were Doves.
They always closed with this, another track from their Sub Sub days.
Saw both bands on the same bill at the 2002 V festival, Doves were higher up the bill and both, I think promoting their respective first albums.
Both were good and I go back to the first Doves album a lot, cant remember the last time I heard the first Elbow album and apart from The Seldom Seen Kid I haven't been able to get through any other Elbow albums.
Shame Doves split as I thought they had a lot to them.
Doves were a great band. Each record was worse than the last though. Like Oasis.
One of my favourite (if not the best) festival experiences I've had was during a Doves set. The sun was setting, everything absorbed during the day was kicking in and there were groups of people doing a massive hippy-jig in front of me during 'Pounding'. Couldn't have been a more perfect moment.
Elbow... I have no opinion of.
New Order will never be surpassed.
You joking??
Saw New Order several times in the 1980s including their first show after the sad death of Ian Curtis, at Glastonbury in '81. Swansea Top Rank in '85, Glastonbury again in '87 and '89. They were never better than just above average, to be honest.
It's all about opinions though...I am willing to bet you wouldn't care to listen to most of the stuff I do these days....
The reason I posted it was because I heard kingdom of Rust on the radio earlier n got me thinking. It's kinda football related cause Gary Neweborns son is in the video to that song. Clive Newbiorn. That might be the other way round. I'm not checking. Always like that song. A loved ones ashes being sprinkled on Blackppol beach in the video. We can all kinda relate.
Doves were the best ecstasy in the early 90s. What a buzz.
