The Doves – Some Cities

Double vinyl LP pressing. Some Cities is the third studio album by the British indie rock band Doves. The album was released in February 2005, and became the band's second consecutive album to top the UK Albums Chart at number 1. Some Cities was conceived as a rawer, stripped-down record, and conceptually touches upon the physical changes of the band's hometown of Manchester, as well as emotional transformations. The album features the band's second-highest charting single, Black and White Town, which peaked at number 6 on the UK Singles Chart. Two further singles from the album-Snowden and Sky Starts Falling-also fared well on the chart, peaking at number 17 and 45, respectively.
