                                     NOTES:
                 First of all, that title: is it pronounced
                 "doom" or "do me"? Either way of saying it
                 applies to this six-song EP, which is Adult.'s
                 first release on Thrill Jockey (fear not,
                 Ersatz Audio fans, Adult. will continue to
                 release music on their own imprint). Granted,
                 Adult. has made a cottage industry of crafting
                 dystopian sounds so chilly and vicious that
                 they're freakishly alluring -- à la J.G.
                 Ballard's "Warm Leatherette"-inspiring novel
                 Crash -- but on D.U.M.E., Adam Lee Miller and
                 Nicola Kuperus feel less like voyeurs and more
                 like active participants (or perpetrators) in
                 their songs' scenarios. This more immediate
                 feeling can be attributed to the fact that
                 Miller and Kuperus developed most of
                 D.U.M.E.'s songs by playing them in concert;
                 the hissy rhythms, cavernous basslines, and
                 occasional prickly guitars that dominate the
                 EP are boiled down to on-the-road simplicity.
                 The biggest difference from Adult.'s previous
                 work, though, comes from Kuperus' vocals;
                 instead of the detached, sometimes disdainful
                 delivery she normally uses, on D.U.M.E. she
                 howls like a banshee, to theatrical, and
                 occasionally hilarious, effect. When Kuperus
                 sings "dirty double-crosser/don't you know
                 that's not nice to do?" on "The End," she
                 sounds like a villain gloating before going in
                 for the kill. D.U.M.E.'s witchy, heavily
                 eyelinered approach may appeal more to fans of
                 bands like Numbers or Ersatz Audio's own
                 Tamion 12 Inch than admirers of Adult.'s
                 normally sleek, distant neo-electro, but the
                 harsh, nervous allure of tracks like "Don't
                 Talk (Redux)" and "Hold Your Breath" is
                 undeniable.
