"Adultery" is Dog Fashion Disco's sixth studio album, released on April 4, 2006. The new album is a metal, hardcore, jazz and lounge fusion. It is a concept album that takes the listener on a journey through one man's self destruction. A "dark and twisted" video has been shot for the track "Silent Film", which will apparently feature half naked satan women, ordained priests in the Church of Satan, whisky and gambling, but not cigarettes.

ongs' Descriptions

On November 10 2005, Dog Fashion Disco posted on their MySpace blog a list of the songs that would go out on "Adultery", with a short description of each.

# "The Uninvited Guest" - horror movie piano with erie breathy vocals;
# "The Sacrifice of Mrs Rose Covington" - sounds like heavy DFD meets Slayer meets Lamb of God;
# "Sweet Insanity" - sounds like FNM meets A Perfect Circle with big "Rapists Eyes" like chorus;
# "100 Suicides" - sounds like QotSA meets DFD meets Billy Idol;
# "Darkest Days" - DFD makes heavy melodic song about vampires and other depressing poop;
# "Moonlight City Drive" - DFD meets B52's meets soundtrack to Pulp Fiction;
# "Desert Grave" - DFD meets Johny Cash meets a banjo;
# "The Grades Are In" (tentative title) - DFD makes dark nighttime driving song meets jazz explosion;
# "Dead Virgins Don't Sing" - erie cello funeral march with chanting choir and guilty of mass murder chorus;
# "Mature Audiences Only" - orchestrated cello madness;
# "Adultery" - porno music;
# "Silent Film" - private eye movie soundtrack. 1930's crime drama meets sheer chaos.

Upon the release of the album some songs had their positions changed and "The Grades Are In" had its title changed to "Hitchiker".
