Doves

In January 2020, Doves released the live recording of "Prisoners," capturing a significant moment in the band’s resurgence after an extended hiatus. Prior to this, Doves had not released new music since their album "Kingdom of Rust" in 2009. The band returned to the scene with their eagerly awaited album "The Universal Want," which came out later in September 2020. This live performance of "Prisoners" showcases their blend of indie rock and atmospheric sounds, reflecting the band’s growth and evolution over the years. Interestingly, "Prisoners" is notable for its introspective lyrics, echoing themes of personal struggle and transformation, which resonate with the band’s broader narrative of returning to form after years apart. This period marked a reinvigoration for Doves, setting a strong foundation for the subsequent release of new material after a decade.
