From AllMusic.com: Artist: Curve Album: Pubic Fruit Rating: 4/5 Release Date: October 1992 Label: Anxious/Charisma Time: 58:31 Type: Single Pubic Fruit is not a proper follow-up to Curve's debut full-length, instead gathering together three of the band's earlier EP releases that had only been released in the U.K. and adding the previously unavailable 12" version of "Faît Accompli." Despite the album being a compilation of sorts, it holds together quite nicely and provides a good look at the band's work up until its debut release. Much of the material is produced by the band and Steve Osborne, and isn't nearly as dense as Curve's debut, which benefited from their work with Flood. The non-focus tracks of the EPs are every bit the equal of the songs that eventually found their way onto Doppelgänger, with many of them being true gems. "No Escape from Heaven" features a sultry vocal performance by Toni Halliday over a galloping percussive beat and drive-by bursts of guitar. And "Cherry" is the high point of this collection. The song starts out quietly with hushed vocals and subtle keyboards before the drums signal a blast of fuzz guitars and everything crashes into a riveting sound collage. 01 Ten Little Girls (4:27) 02 I Speak Your Every Word (3:55) 03 Blindfold (4:32) 04 No Escape from Heaven (4:21) 05 Coast Is Clear (4:01) 06 The Colour Hurts (4:35) 07 Frozen (3:59) 08 Zoo (3:51) 09 Clipped (4:14) 10 Die Like a Dog (4:41) 11 Galaxy (3:57) 12 Cherry (5:50) 13 Faît Accompli [Extended Version] (6:24) ----- From Cuckoo's Nest, The Curve Archive: CURVE. "PUBIC FRUIT" "This is not a new CURVE album, this is PUBIC FRUIT, a compilation of the first three British ep's plus the extended version of FAÎT ACCOMPLI. The running order is the same as the original records, and FAÎT ACCOMPLI was added because it was never available in the US commercially, also because we love it and thought you might too." all songs written by Halliday / Garcia. published by Virgin Songs Inc. / Sony Music Publishing UK / Anxious Music ltd.
