Dover

The Profile

Dover is a Spanish rock band from Madrid formed by sisters Cristina and Amparo Llanos with Jesús Antúnez and Álvaro Díez. They recorded several English-language albums and became best known in Spain and parts of Europe for a 90s alternative/grunge sound.

Members named in reviews: Cristina Llanos, Amparo Llanos, Alvaro Diez, Jesus Antunez. Reviews note English-language lyrics, a raw vocal style by Cristina Llanos, and a sound rooted in alternative/grunge/indie rock.

Two DeBaser reviews offer a split view: admiration for Cristina Llanos's raw, emotional vocals and the band's energetic alternative/grunge sound, paired with criticism about occasional lack of distinctive hooks and uneven vocal delivery. The Flame is praised; I Was Dead For 7 Weeks... is viewed as pleasant but not consistently captivating. Both reviews note the band's English-language lyrics and Madrid origins.
