5.0 out of 5 stars Curve's Finest Hour, 16 May 2001
By A Customer
This is Curves Masterpiece album with the most dark lyrics ever (apart from Lush's 'Split' album maybe). 'Already Yours' breaks you in with a rocky riff and catchy chorus leaving you open for the shear genius of 'Horrorhead'; one of Curves best tracks (Checkout the video if you can). Toni's breathing is used to full effect on this track.. where most bands tracks are so over produced that you loose all the human qualities.. Curve have (in a pre-Veruca Salt way) brought them to the forefront.. making this an anxious little number. Then things turn dark... 'Wish you were Dead' and 'Doppelganger' are black little numbers and are quite down beat for Curve.. but marvellous all the same. Then 'Lillies Dying' slams in for what is, for me, Curves best track ever. Toni's floaty voice over a rockin guitar riff once again proving that Curve taught Garbage everything they know. The rest of the album plays out with classic Curve style. 'Fait ..' and 'Split Into Fractions' are simply great tracks in the great Curve singles style. If you wanna get into Curve.. get this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Storming debut release, 19 Jan 2002
By Jay M "jay_mc" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Curve's debut album is one of those moments when a band makes a sudden and significant impact on the music world. Their combination of breathy, female vocals, driving rhythms, guitars played as a wall of sound and catchy choruses had been done before but not in such an expert manner as this.

Opener 'Already Yours' sets the tone. The excellent Dean Garcia's frenetic bass combined with his guitar work, and that of Debbie Smith, makes a perfect background for Toni Halliday's vocals to soar through, alternating between the angelic to that of sexy vixen to the vitriolic.

'Horror Head' is one of Curve's best, from any of their albums. Halliday's breathy vocals are the main hook of the song, and they can't but help the listener from falling in love with her.

Elsewhere there are excellent guitar led songs such as 'Ice That Melts The Tips' to the heady rush of 'Think & Act'.

One of the best albums of the 90's.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic fusion of guitar, keyboard and vocal melody....., 21 Sep 2000
By A Customer
A band ahead of it's time and 'Doppleganger', a superlative example of what Curve have to offer, is no exception. Toni Halliday and Dean Garcia were laying down tracks that fuse together rock guitar, sequencers and haunting melodies long before the word Garbage meant money in the bank to anyone except the trashman! Full of powerful lyrics sung to perfection and catchy riffs that just make you want to listen to it over and over again, Doppleganger is the pinnacle work of a band that never received a fraction of the fame and recognition they so richly deserved. Each of these songs just reaches inside you and pours raw emotion into your soul, from the gutsy angst and sheer spite of 'Wish You Dead' through to the confusion and bewilderment of 'Sandpit'. However, I cannot think of a more appropriate way to sum up the whole album than their own words, from the opening track 'Already Yours', Doppleganger is "A gift from God, a small creation, a prized possession without limitations...."

5.0 out of 5 stars Best album of the early '90s... and the perfect Curve starting point
Curve's finest hour is also the best thing to come out of the early 90s, even if it sounds much later than that. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars What do you see / that isn't already yours
For me the killer track is the first one, "Already Yours". The rest of the album sounds like a variation on the ideas present in this song, with the same basic sound. Read more
