Adultery was released in 2006 through Rotten Records, as their 6th studio album (5th, if you don't include the extremely limited release of Erotic Massage and their live album, The City is Alive Tonight). Baltimore’s Dog Fashion Disco call it “Movie Metal” and have not only outdone themselves, but have created a concept record to fold, spindle, and mutilate all of the aural senses. Adultery delves into the life of an ordinary suburban family man and walks you through his folding to his own dark demons. Lock Quentin Tarantino, Charles Bukowski and Humphrey Bogart in a room with guitars, drums and a few bottles of Absinthe and what you would find closely resembles the genius of Adultery.
Dog Fashion Disco released a statement on their myspace on the 5th Of December 2006, stating that they were calling the end of their run. Their "final" show was played on January 13, 2007, although since then they have "reunited" on multiple occasions for Polkadot Cadaver shows to play some songs.
Todd Smith, Jasan Stepp and John Ensminger of Dog Fashion Disco moved onto their project Polkadot Cadaver, and have released one album and have another one in the works thus far. The style of Polkadot Cadaver is similar to DFD in many ways.
In 2014, DFD decided that being broken up was dumb, and started an Indiegogo campaign to raise money for a new album. The fans ponied up in a big way, and the band raised just over $85,000. With that amount of money being raised, DFD are able to record 2 albums, make a big budget video, and do a small tour of the U.K., for the first time in a long while. The new album, Sweet Nothings, is being released July 22nd, 2014 via Rotten Records.
Their latest album is 'Experiments in Embryos', released July 7th, 2018, through RazorToWrist is available through the Apple music, Spotify, Amazon, and iTunes.
The Christian Dance Song
Dog Fashion Disco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Children sit down and now listen
Obey the rules cause I'm a Christian
I am exactly what you want me to be
And this world in front of me, yeah
Is larger than infinity
Pathetic and untuned
Tell me of the guilt
Just say the word and you're forgiven
Your has risen
Before you realize the rapture it's ours
And this world in front of me, yeah
Here comes a fading memory
Rejoice
Let's have the choir sing
Tell me of the guilt
Under the devil's oath
And it only makes you stronger
When they're f**king with your head
And it only makes you stronger
Forgiveness
It helps me clear my
Some say the anti-Christ is among us
But possibly is anyone of us
And this world in front of me, yeah
Here comes a fading memory
Rejoice
Let's have the choir sing
Rejoice now
Tell me of the guilt
Under the devil's oath
And it only makes you stronger
When they're f**king with your head (x2)
And it only makes you stronger
Forgiveness
It helps to clear your
Rejoice and sing
And praise the Lord
Repent your sins
Brings great rewards
And it only makes you stronger
When they're f**king with your head
And it only makes you stronger
Forgiveness
It helps me clear my head (x2)
The Christian Dance Song by Dog Fashion Disco explores the idea of blind obedience and the dangers of allowing oneself to be easily influenced without questioning authority. The song opens with a nod to indoctrination, with a call for children to sit and listen to the Christian message, emphasizing the importance of obedience. The lyrics go on to describe the singer as "exactly what you want me to be" - someone who is willing to conform to societal expectations, yet at the same time, they recognize the "pathetic and untuned" nature of the world.
The song then takes a turn towards the religious, as it talks about guilt and the power of forgiveness. The singer invites others to confess their sins, promising that forgiveness will make them stronger. However, the lyrics also suggest that blind faith can be dangerous, especially when those in power use it to manipulate and control others. The Christian message can be twisted into something harmful, as the singer acknowledges with the line "some say the anti-Christ is among us, but possibly is anyone of us." The song ends on a note of ambivalence, with an invitation to rejoice and sing, while also recognizing the fleeting nature of life and memory.
