![Kingdom Of Rust](kingdom-of-rust-25227943.jpg)
Four years after Some Cities, Doves return triumphant with the heavy, epic rumbling sound of Kingdom of Rust. The trio’s penchant for minor chords and reverb-heavy production drapes the new album in overcast, moderately melancholy tones, and an underlining theme of movement and travel affords their fourth album a kinetic aesthetic. On opening track, “Jetstream”, frontman Jimi Goodwin sings about catching a drift on a troubled dream as the instrumentation gradually creates the feeling of dislocated movement — with the eventual appearance of stomping drums, cascading electronic.s and an effective, minimal guitar riff. Hints of woozy psychedelia color “10:03”, which starts like Coldplay-meets-Glasvegas and ends with a thundering U2-inspired groove, and the trio is occasionally accompanied by violin and cello (“Kingdom of Rust”, “Birds Flew Backwards”) for swirling, orchestral atmospherics.
