CATEGORY: NOISE-POP | DURATION: 43 MINUTES
A prime example of new, post-rave English pop, Curve meshed swirling noise guitar together with driving electronic dance beats, overlaid by transcendent female vocals. On Doppelgänger, Curve present a relentless series of sonic sculptures in motion with a gothic twist – as reflected by the album’s cover image of a doll massacre – creating an engulfing trip to the nightside, and a transient spike in the evolutionary deathcrawl of 90s pop.
