The Dukes of Stratosphear

The Dukes of Stratosphear was a pseudonym used by the English rock band XTC in the mid-to-late 1980s, concurrently with XTC's continued musical activities. The project, which amounted to the albums 25 O'Clock (1985) and Psonic Psunspot (1987), was intended as a homage to 1960s psychedelic pop. In the UK, the records outsold XTC's then-current albums The Big Express (1984) and Skylarking (1986).
