The band Adult have recently returned to a duo (husband and wife). their music is a well researched product of electronic music from the late 70’s early 80’s, you’ll hear some Devo, some Residents among others all of which has been nicely packaged for modern listening consumption. The new album seems pretty dark, and this interesting video captures the feel nicely. Folk Electro Goth…or something, I am oddly reminded of that other great husband and wife group The Handsome Family who drive more towards country macabre, but who paint a similar surreal American Gothic landscape. One final thought, I think the video illustrates clearly that you shouldn’t lose focus when carrying your hand woven devil quilt down the cellar stairs.
