Doves is a Indie rock act. Their sound grew out of David Holmes, Sub Sub and Badly Drawn Boy. Those roots explain a lot about how Doves arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Coral, James, Shed Seven, Ocean Colour Scene and Manic Street Preachers, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into My Morning Jacket, Alfie, Goldfrapp, Electronic and Talk Talk, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
