I want music that can delight me and scare me at the same time. Sounds that coax me into dark room and suffocate me with bliss. That’s the best way I can think to describe the gorgeous new release from CURSE entitled Metamorphism. It’s a heady mix of darkwave, industrial and doom, blending delicate melodies with harsh and abrasive beats. Metamorphism will be released on vinyl and digital formats through Fake Crab Records tomorrow, October 25th, and you can preorder it at the label webshop HERE and Bandcamp HERE. Right now, we’re excited to be able to share the full album with you below!
Metamorphism is the 3rd full length release from our band Curse. When we started this band in 2011 we set out to make music that held the destructive heaviness of extreme metal in contrast with the delicate melodiousness of synthpop and dance music. Over the years we have worked to incorporate many varied influences into our music. Such genres as sound design/noise, industrial, grindcore, soundtrack music, synthpunk, and new wave have inspired us to make music of our own. With Metamorphism we aimed to bring all of these influences together into one cohesive whole, making it our most progressive and transformative release to date.
