Thrill Jockey artists Adult. mix electronica with punk energy on this dark, edgy full-length. Like their E.P. D.U.M.E., GIMMIE TROUBLE plays like an angry specter from the early 1980s, channeling such bands as P.I.L. and the Slits, but with vocalist Nicola Kuperus's inventive caterwaul keeping the group's sound utterly distinctive. Using eerie synth patterns, textural guitar, and shuddering, often danceable rhythms, Adult. make driving, insistent music that chills and mesmerizes at once

Adult.: Adam Lee Miller, Nicola Kuperus.
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. ~ Heather Phares

| | Various Artists Bargrooves - Black CD (2006) (Import)
Gimmie Trouble music CDs
$30.19
Black, the deeper, harder, faster shade of Bargrooves, encompasses 28 tracks of driving electro-edged Dance music mixed by Ben Sowton and Deeplay's Martin Brodin. Featuring tracks from 'Def E, Marshall Jefferson, Terry Lee Brown Jr., G-Club and others. This collection introduces a new tougher, darker side to the Bargrooves sound. Think bittersweet flavors that seduce and caress before they kick back like a mule. This is the soundtrack to sultry soirees that go deep into the night (or should we say early morning) where the lights are down low, the music is loud and you lose yourself in a maze of tech-edged beats and deliciously twisted Electronica. It's a little risqu‚ too, of course, but still retains that all-important soulful quality. Seamless. 2006.

| | Adult Why Bother? CD (2007)
Gimmie Trouble album
$12.95
With indie rock acts defecting en masse to the glittery arpeggiated pastures of dance-punk and electro, few bands have taken the opposite course from synth pop to punk rock. The duo of Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller--better known as Adult--have evolved from the crystalline electro sounds of their earlier work, to the strident, malevolent punk of their latest outing WHY BOTHER?
Bristling with harsh, virulent rhythms and dissonant electronics, the music's grinding industrial bombast frames Kuperus's baleful caterwauling--a harrowing, sometimes frightful shriek that commands the songs with a rabid intensity. On the rancorous "Inclined To Vomit" Kuperus spits the hateful invective "you make me disgusted to a painful degree," while walls of synth noise billow like fire-engine sirens. Still, other tracks such as "Plagued By Fear" take a more conventional verse-chorus approach, leavening the punk-noise venom with a tuneful bass hook that's reminiscent of a female-fronted Joy Division. If the legions of trend-hoping indie dance acts hint at glam-pop flourish over musical substance, WHY BOTHER? provides the edgy, experimental alternative to punk-disco's dyed-in-the-wool retro-fetishism.
Recording information: The Key Club.
Photographer: Nicola Kuperus.
Personnel: J. Carson Gray (guitar, accordion).
Audio Mixers: Jessica Ruffins; Bill Skibbe.

| | Neil Hamburger America's Funnyman CD (1996)
Gimmie Trouble music CDs
$16.15
The alter ego of the Australian-born alternative comedian Gregg Turkington, the greasy-haired, stained velvet jacket-wearing Neil Hamburger's style is timing-challenged, frequently offensive to those of a sensitive disposition, and often interrupted by noisy bouts of throat clearing, sometimes into his own drink. His sense of humor is an acquired taste, relying not so much on a joke being actually funny as on its being told at all. While he's far away from the comedy mainstream, and even from its more esoteric branches, Hamburger's personality is certainly distinctive, and enables him to take his act where others, perhaps with good reason, fear to tread. This set is part of a series of releases the comedian has been issuing on the Drag City label since the mid-1990s.
