SEXTUS - (Ex-Jellyfish - Eric Dover) - Stranger Than Fiction

JELLYFISH ALERT! Finally, the first solo album from Eric Dover, guitarist in Jellyfish/Imperial Drag and according to blog "RothnRoll" Sextus is "a great powerpop affair that bring thoughts to Butch Walker and Tal Bachman with a touch of glamrock. Definitely a contender for my Top album list of 2008." We've put up a ton of soundbites to sample below. Amitious, expansive and a gritty power poppin' affair.

The near-hour long opus has been long rumored in its release, with various demos appearing online over the years, but has never been officially available until now. Never one to disappoint, Dover has completely re-christened himself in the persona of SEXTUS. "It was important that the persona be directly influenced by the music solely, which is both dramatic and epic in its word, and intent. It is something that cannot be misconstrued," says Dover. "I have endured countless setbacks, deaths, divorces, alienation; you name it, during the process of making this record. It is my statement to the world, my testimony of love, and love lost."
