Doves: "Kingdom of Rust" and "Winter Hill" (Live on Jools Holland)

Doves typically solid Kingdom of Rust is out now, and in promotion the British rockers appeared on Jools Holland to perform the album's sprawling title track and the floating "Winter Hill." That this band isn't bigger is always mysterious to me, considering they do huge anthems better than any of the current British bands doing the same (like Coldplay, Snow Patrol, and Travis, for instance). Maybe it's because they don't sing about being yellow or fighting in the crusades or something.
