1) a Spanish alternative-pop-rock band which was founded in [year formed]1992[/year formed]. The Band currently consists of the sisters Christina Llanos (guitar/vocals) and Amparo Llanos (guitar), Jesús Antúnez (drums), and Samuel Titos (bass) who recently replaced former bassist Álvaro Díez. Their music ranges from heavy to sweet, shouting to dreaming, but always with a groovy drive.
Dover originated in the outskirts of Madrid at the beginning of the 1990s when the Llanos sisters decided to form a rock band encouraged by the alternative scene from Seattle. In 1994, the drummer Jesús Antúnez and the bass guitarist Álvaro Gómez joined in. One of the band's demo tapes reached the radio program Disco Grande on RNE Radio 3. The band then entered into a one-year contract with the small independent record label Everlasting-Caroline. Their debut album Sister in 1995 lacked promotion and sold poorly; however, the Spanish fanzine Mondo Sonoro included it among the 10 best national albums of the year.
After their initial contract expired, they signed with the independent label Subterfuge Records, which produced their second album Devil Came To Me. This album turned out to be an unprecedented success in the Spanish independent scene. A fragment from the title song was included in a popular Radical Fruit Company television commercial and the band got launched to national fame. While promoting this album, the bass guitarist was replaced by Álvaro Díez, who had already been part of the band at its beginning. The album sold over 500,000 copies and gained them fans also abroad in Europe and the Americas.
Their relationship with Subterfuge Records deteriorated and they signed with Chrysalis Records. In 1998, the band created their own label Loli Jackson Records. The next year they recorded their third album Late At Night in Seattle.
In 2000, they received the MTV Europe Best Spanish Artist award. In 2001, Chrysalis re-released their first album Sister including a bonus unreleased song Noche tras noche. In September that year, after tense recording sessions in Los Angeles marked by disagreements with their album producer Barret Jones, the band released their fourth album I Was Dead For 7 Weeks In The City Of Angels.
In 2003, they released The Flame, recorded in Spain and produced by Rick Will, an album that shows all the fury that has made them big without forgetting those great songs of melody and quality. Stephen Marcussen (Marcussen Mastering, NYC) did the mastering, a classic that has mastered a lot of the legendary records of the last 15 years.
In 2006, Dover released Follow the City Lights. It was recorded at PKO Studios and self-produced along with Daniel Alcover. The album was preceded by the single Let Me Out, and broke away from their usual sound to create a more dance-like style.
The band's 2007 release 2 is a greatest hits compilation, which exhibits the rock sound that brought them to stardom, as well as the band's new electronic sound.
The first single from 2 is entitled "Soldier."
2) An artist associated with the doujin circle Tokyo Audio Waffle, or en;dolphinrecords. He is a producer of a wide range of genres, from house to hip-hop, to chiptune, and to deep house.

It won't bring you up
Can you feel my sister? yeah!
I don't want her to be touched
I found the truth in someone's body
I felt their hands between my legs
But at least I got 'em to say they're sorry
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeaah!
Did you see me running? yeah!
I won't bring you up
Did you see my brother? yeah!
I don't want him to be touched
I found the truth in someone's body
I felt their hands between my legs
But at least I got 'em to say they're sorry
And that's just worth the pain
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!
I felt sick, and nobody told you
That's right!
You owe me a friend
Don't shoot!
That's not gonna save you
That's why
I want you to try!
The lyrics of the song "Death Rocker" by Dover are quite ambiguous and open to interpretation. The song seems to revolve around the idea of power, abuse, and the struggle for justice. The first two lines of the song, "Can you feel my power? yeah!/ It won't bring you up," could be interpreted in many ways. It suggests that the singer possesses a certain kind of power, but it cannot uplift others. This may be a reference to the power dynamics in society, where people in positions of power often use their power to exploit others.
The song also touches upon the idea of sexual abuse. The lines, "I found the truth in someone's body/ I felt their hands between my legs," describe the singer's experience of having been violated. However, the singer seems to have confronted the abuser and gotten an apology. The lines, "But at least I got 'em to say they're sorry/ And that's just worth the pain," suggest that even though the experience was painful, the fact that the abuser apologized made it worth it.
The song also seems to be a call to action. The repeated line, "Now I want you to try, yeah!, yeah!" could be interpreted as a call to the listener to take action and try to make a difference. The final lines, "I felt sick, and nobody told you/ That's right! You owe me a friend/ Don't shoot! That's not gonna save you/ That's why I want you to try!" seem to be a plea to the listener to be a friend and stand up against injustice.
