[edit] KMFDM project
Anyone has info on the new project between Sascha Konietzko and Lucia Cifarelli of KMFDM and Dean? - mando 07:25, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Curve and Garbage
I've heard through various discussion boards accusations from critics about the band Garbage largely copying from Curve's music style. I don't know if this should be included in the article.
I think the article puts it excellently. Garbage were never, ever as dark as Curve. There's an almost industrial edge to some of Curve's best music, where Garbage are more of a rock band. Butch Vig may well have nicked some ideas (or been influenced by) Curve, but Garbage were always aimed much more at the pop mainstream than Curve ever were.
Personally I think Garbage are a pale imitation of Curve, sanitised for the masses, and Curve never got the recognition that they should have had. I suspect that's not a Neutral Point of View though. :) Depeche Mode proved that a dark, electronic sound can sell records, but for whatever reason, Curve never reached that level of success.

"Aimed"? I don't think so. When they formed, they didn't even considered touring. They just happened to become popular. Duke Ericson (Garbage member) said he's considers Garbage a pop group. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.98.118 (talk) 16:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] My changes
If anyone objects to anything I'm doing (in terms of style) with Curve stuff at the moment, do say. (Obviously if something is 'wrong' – like genres for some of the albums – then feel free to fix yourself). Zetetic Apparatchik 23:07, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

(Suggested new discography layout, at least for albums.)
[edit] Songs on Adventures that have no guitar
In the article is says that on The New Adventures Of there are songs without guitar. I keep listening to it and can't figure which songs don't have guitar. Do they mean "Answers", because that has guitar on it. Maybe this should be changed?

[edit] Template
I have added a discography template on the article; let me know what you think of it and if it works well. It's my first template so I'm open to constructive criticism. Thanks. The Fly (talk) 10:17, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
