Throughout the course of their 25-year history, Detroit-based industrial, synth punks ADULT. — Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller — have embodied steadfast frustration, distrust and apprehension. Typically for acts that have been together that long, the edges began to soften with time, but the duo isn’t interested or even remotely concerned about the comfort of legacy.  Kissing Luck Goodbye, the duo’s 10th album is slated for a March 27, 2026 release through Dais Records. Reportedly, the album features music that may arguably be the most visceral, urgent, angry and uncompromising effort of their career to date. Built with upgraded gear and a whole new library of sounds, Kissing Luck Goodbye‘s material is crushingly dynamic, louder and much clearer with Kuperus’ commanding delivery being given much greater delivery in the mix, outlining an arsenal of vivid, caustic calls, chants and music. Laughter, whether in the lyrics or as possessed presence, serves as a leitmotif through the material that speaks to the menacing absurdity of our moment.  The album will include the previously released single "No One Is Coming," a rousingly anthemic and urgent scorcher, and the album's latest single "R U 4 $ALE." Much like its immediate predecessor, "R U 4 $ALE" is a hypnotic, urgent and forceful banger that features one of Kuperus' most dynamic and unhinged vocal performances to date, anchored around an incendiary mantra of our age "The chaos is what they want!" The song doubles as a declaration of intent: to meet a burning and rotting world of greed, disarray and abuse with defiant, masterfully assembled chaos. “You have two choices in this hellscape we're living in right now, which is either fight or be depressed,” ADULT.'s Adam Lee Miller says. “Either one is okay. But, you know, our choice to fight back was simple.”

Throughout the course of their 25-year history, Detroit-based industrial, synth punks ADULT. -- Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller -- have embodied steadfast frustration, distrust and apprehension.

Kissing Luck Goodbye, the duo's 10th album is slated for a March 27, 2026 release through Dais Records.

Laughter, whether in the lyrics or as possessed presence, serves as a leitmotif through the material that speaks to the menacing absurdity of our moment. The album's lead single "No One is Coming" is a rousingly anthemic and urgent industrial scorcher anchored around a forceful baseline and noisy feedback that's one-part dire warning, one-part call to arms that directly attacks inaction in the face of fascism. And at its core, it reminds the listener that there will be no calvary, no saviors, no deus ex machina to save us. We're all we got. We're going to have to save ourselves -- or perish. "'No one is coming to your rescue . . . ' A lyric that was written in early 2025 and is even more relevant on its release date a year later. A song speaking to moral collapse and political corruption 'to a T.'" ADULT.'s Nicola Kuperus says. "These subhumans attempting to run the show are more concerned with cashing in and political cosplay than the well being of mankind. While working on this album, I read an article from an esteemed environmental scientist about “what’s coming in the future”. What stuck with me was their point that we are entering a new phase in existence where the most important thing we can do is know our neighbors and know the strengths of each other and what resources everyone has. Who needs extra care? Who is on their own? This song was written as a call to arms. Be alert. Be aware. Be prepared. Stand up for yourself and look out for your community. We are better when we are united. Social media is wearing us down. Deluding us. The political landscape is horrifying, distracting, deranged and unhinged. We are seeing this go down in real time right now in Minneapolis… NO ONE IS COMING TO YOUR RESCUE… except ALL OF US! Keep speaking up! Keep using your right to protest and most importantly keep showing kindness to one another." The accompanying video features the duo playing in front of a backdrop of edited stock footage of crowds clapping, dancing and consuming mindlessly as the surrounding world burns down.
