[edit] Trivia

  • The band were originally known as Sub Sub, making disco/techno music. An electrical fire in their recording studio caused it to burn down, destroying three years of their material. It was at this point that they decided to change direction and reform themselves as Doves. This album followed soon after. [1]
  • One of the U.S.-only bonus tracks, "Darker," was featured in the second episode of the FOX drama series 24.
