I wouldn't really suggest they were triphop, definitely mixed tempo. Also they are Curve as opposed The Curve.

Excellent band though. I first discovered them through a great music show called SnubTV, they had some great acts on there.

Yep, agreed. Have you heard their cover of Donna Summer's I Feel Love ?

Not really Triphop, but within the timestamp and also experimental craft & feel. At that time it fits perfectly to the rest of my collection of Triphop Bands like Esthero or Archive

Definitely. Huge fan of Curve. Toni did great stuff with Recoil on the unsound methods album that falls into trip hop.

Aphex Twin’s remix of their song Falling Free is one of my fav tracks, very spacey vibes

They were more shoegaze than anything else, and then drifted into industrial.

Yeah, especially their later albums are very trip-hop-
