A return after a 5 year absence sees no decrease in quality. It all starts off with the single 'Chinese Burn', a thunderous rhythm track, all beats and vitriolic lyrics. 'Coming Up Roses' is one of my favourite Curve tracks. Quite reserved in terms of noise, no wall of sound etc. It features textured electronic analogs along with a pounding drum loop.'Something Familiar' is a pure pop/rock track. Chiming guitars combine with more aggressive guitars to form a strong, powerful song. Other highlights include the fast paced 'Sweetback' and the albums' last track 'Recovery', which leaves us wanting more.An extremely underrated album mainly due to the fact that in 1998 the music world was disintegrating into the whole boy-band and girl-band hell it is now. Well it's their loss, Curve will always have a strong following no matter what because they are one of the few talented and genuine music groups out there.
