CURVE Cuckoo (2025 UK/EU limited edition 10-track LP pressed on classic black vinyl. Influential indie rock and electronic fusionists Curve followed their acclaimed debut Doppelgänger with Cuckoo, originally released in 1993 via Anxious Records. Co-produced by the band alongside Flood and Steve Osborne, the album pushes their trademark blend of dense guitar textures, driving rhythms, and ethereal vocals into darker, more experimental territory. While Cuckoo may not have matched the chart success of its predecessor, it remains a powerful and richly layered record, praised for Toni Halliday's commanding vocals and introspective lyrics. Tracks like Missing Link and Superblaster deliver raw, kinetic energy, while Crystal and Unreadable Communication showcase a shimmering, proto-trance sensibility that prefigured later developments in electronic music. A pivotal release in Curve's catalogue - bridging industrial noise, shoegaze atmospherics and early '90s electronica with striking confidence. Picture sleeve, factory sealed. Recommended)
