Adultery is Dog Fashion Disco�s third album of metal, hardcore, jazz and lounge fusion. The album is the first time the band has attempted to create a concept record that takes listeners on a journey through one man�s self-destruction. The album plays like a movie with Dog Fashion Disco playing the soundtrack to one man�s demented journey.

�Adultery is about this seemingly normal guy in his mid- 30's, with a wife, kids and a good job. He starts to flirt with drugs, prostitutes and eventually gives in to his dark desires and sadistic and murderous lifestyle. This record is this guy�s life spiraling out of control into a demented and dark place,� says Dog Fashion Disco frontman Todd Smith about the concept behind his band�s latest offering. �There are so many twists and turns on this record it�s more like listening to a movie at times, but the song structure still remains.�

Baltimore�s Dog Fashion Disco may have spent the better part of the past five years whipping audiences into animalistic frenzies with their brand of hard rock. Formed in 1999 by vocalist Todd Smith and keyboardist Jeff Siegel, Dog Fashion quickly rose to the top of the underground with the release of their 2001 Spitfire Records debut, Anarchists of Good Taste. The album was quickly praised by critics and fans alike for its quirky Faith No More musical fusion that drew influences from Clutch to Tool. The band�s sophomore effort, Committed To A Bright Future, followed in 2003 and helped them develop a loyal underground following of fans (dubbed the �mushroom cult�), as well as the respect of musical contemporaries Serj Tankian of System of a Down (who made a guest appearance on Anarchists of Good Taste), Mushroomhead and American Head Charge. Cementing their reputation as one of hard rock�s best live bands, DFD has toured the world non-stop for the past five years with the likes of Slayer, Mindless Self Indulgence, Nothingface and Lacuna Coil.

Recorded in the bowels of Baltimore with producer Steven Wright (Jimmie�s Chicken Shack, SR-71), Adultery is a well calculated exercise in musical fusion. Kicking things off with �The Uninvited Guest�, a haunting piano melody driven by vocalist Todd Smith�s unforgettable breathy vocals, Adultery will immediately hypnotize listeners. �Desert Grave� is a musically ambitious number that features frontman Todd Smith playing banjo, while his soulful vocal work turns him into a young Johnny Cash. Anyone who might think Dog Fashion Disco went soft only needs to hear �The Sacrifice of Mrs. Rose Covington� with its blistering Slayer like riff*ge, �100 Suicides� thundering modern rock charge or the huge grooves of �Sweet Insanity� to be convinced that this is Dog Fashion Disco�s musical masterpiece.

�This record doesn�t follow any formula for style or genre. The record goes from jazz to metal and Ska to R&B and country,� says keyboardist Jeff Siegel. �It�s a way for us to keep the element of surprise there in every song. All the bands we love experiment to some extent.�
