French darkwave band Curtain released their debut in 1996, followed by several works before a lengthy hiatus. They returned in 2024 with “Spiral,” a nine-track full-length available across digital, CD, and vinyl formats via Manic Depression Records. The album blends darkwave with dark-pop and EBM influences, featuring dreamy yet adaptive vocals performed in English and French. Production is intentionally raw and dark throughout, with particularly impactful heavier moments on the second track that showcase bold EBM-influenced arrangements. The reviewer notes the record offers stylistic diversity that should resonate with varied listeners, with a 7½ rating reflecting appreciation for its engaging approach and effective genre-crossing execution.
