ADULT.
Prolific Detroit duo ADULT. have returned with their fifth album, The Way Things Fall, out May 14th on Ghostly International, as well as a new single, "Tonight, We Fall" streaming now on FADER.
Called an "infectious, deftly textural" track on FADER, "Tonight We Fall" is a beating electronic track with glowing, reverberating synths and a characteristic gothic edge from Nicola Kuperus' compelling vocals. It's a perfect complement to first single "Idle (Second Thoughts)," called by BULLETT an epitome of the intersection between "electronic elements with a sharper punk edge...it’s a living, breathing concoction of analog instrumentation and electronic aesthetic, with a minimal diffidence that pushes and pulls."
ADULT. will be bringing their memorable live show to select American cities this spring including a set at Movement Electronic Music Festival in their hometown of Detroit, with dates below and more to be announced.

Press Quotes /
"Grim, stripped-bare techno, razor-sharp synth-pop, and snarling electro-punk...It's terrifically conceived and even more terrifically crafted, the sort of record so perfect in its own aims that parsing out influences or agendas seems a fool's game. These tracks, this duo, this entity that is Adult.: they're a great and interesting thing, this nation's best inducers of head-banging, high-speed driving, amazed chuckles, and giddy bedroom shout." Pitchfork
"Itchy gothic synthcore...Detroit's eeriest, scariest, plain witchiest couple...Compressing the sound of gothic cathedral symphonics into the frame of a stuttering, cobwebbed Casio, Millar ratchets up the disco glitch into a ferociously minimal, hyper-tense techno rush." NME
"Sterile, synth-soaked productions." XLR8R
"Like snorting Paxil-laced Adderall off a Fad Gadget lithograph, Adult. is cathartic cabaret for the sketched out...The gnarled vignettes aim to alienate, which only further endears core fans, whether electro heads, electroclash survivors or no-wave fetishists." URB
