ADULT. (Detroit’s Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller) have announced details of a new collaborative album, Detroit House Guests featuring Douglas J McCarthy from Nitzer Ebb, Michael Gira from Swans, Shannon Funchess from Light Asylum & More, via Mute on double vinyl and CD on 17 March 2017.

The collaborative project, conceived by ADULT. in the early 2000s became a reality in 2014 after they received a John S. and James L. Knight Foundation grant. Based on the visual artist residency model, each musician came to ADULT.’s studio for a three week period with the parameter that they all live, work and collaborate together. The album features collaborations with a whole host of musicians and artists.

ADULT. played their first live show together in Germany in 1997 under the name Artificial Material. In early '98 they released their first 12" under the moniker Plasma Co. later that year, they released their first 12" under the name ADULT.

Currently, they have released six albums and 19 EPs or singles on Ghostly International, Thrill Jockey and Clone Records, as well as on their own label Ersatz Audio, (which currently has over 40 releases since it was founded in '95). They have remixed over 20 acts as well, including Tuxedomoon, John Foxx, Death in Vegas and Pet Shop Boys (for Moog Music).

When heavy metal titans Accept returned to the stage in 2009, nobody knew that Wolf Hoffmann and his fellows were just starting out on the most successful chapter of their band’s history.

After nearly seven years, countless live sensations and three successful albums, with Blind Rage even achieving #1 in the official German charts, it is time: Accept have bundled the energy, the rage and the thunderstorm of their 40-year career into a new live DVD. This will be launched on Friday January 13 on Blu-ray and DVD, each shipped with two CDs.

Accept’s headline show at Bang Your Head!!! Festival 2015 has been immortalised for eternity. The video director of the festival wanted the band to be able to watch their performance again, and when watching the video material, the band realised that this was the show that perfectly demonstrated the piercing force of the new line-up.

Wolf Hoffmann and Uwe Lulis doing their perfectly synchronised headbanging is just one example showing that the chemistry between the members matched up perfectly from the very beginning. Together with the release of the DVD there’s also the exciting announcement of a new studio album.

Accept will be touring the UK & Ireland this week alongside Sabaton & Twilight Force:

Jan 10th – Dublin, Vicar St

Jan 11th – Glasgow, O2 Academy

Jan 13th – Manchester, Apollo

Jan 14th – London, Brixton Academy
