Uh, did it have like a title or credits or a record label on it? :-) The only extant Dome I know of is the early 80's side project of Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis of Wire/Wir. According to the Wire book "Everybody Loves a History", the first 2 Dome albums were to have been reissued as a double CD back in 1991 by Mute, as were the 2nd two (Dome 3 and Will You Speak This Word: Dome IV). Dome 1 was from July 1980, Dome 2 and Dome 3 from October 1981, and Will You Speak This Word: Dome IV was from May 1983. If you have track titles, I can confirm/deny that they came from this incarnation of Dome. If any recent outfit has claimed the name, (a) I can't help you and (b) they suck for doing that, because Dome == Gilbert & Lewis forever in my mind (-: ObDig: 5 seconds of Bruce Gilbert beats a lifetime of Global Goon albums.
