notes
Fans and media have praised Curse Icon for their distinct melding of elegantly haunting melodies, captivating vocals, and pounding rhythm. They are a dark-edged power group whose essence is defined by dynamic vocals and rich sonic textures. With a unique style that bridges alternative, metal, and industrial genres, they shine in an otherwise bleak wave of today's prepackaged music. Their songs are melodic and structured, embracing lyrics as a focal point. From the ambitious sensibility of "Broken", to the melancholy surmise of "Down", they have found a niche that sets them ahead of the curve. It's their powerful live show, however, that burns a lasting impression upon the audience's mind.
One cannot doubt the passion and power that embodies a Curse Icon performance. They take you from heaven to hell in under an hour. It is high-energy, engaging, and blissfully entertaining. Curse Icon has breathed new life into the independent music scene by combining a do-it-yourself punk mentality, a pop sensibility, and and a compelling live show. Drawing on a myriad of influences, Curse Icon delivers a kick in the teeth that leaves you wanting more.
Put Pat Benatar into a metal blender, pour in some nails, then sprinkle it with daisy petals and you have lead singer Kiana Prestol. She is mesmerizing; bad-ass and sexy at the same time. Her dynamic vocals complement the band's music by adding a refined attitude that is innovative, yet reminiscent of past rock goddesses. Her sensual concoction of power and melody intoxicates listeners. The guitars bring an aggressive and melodic assault to Curse Icon's epic sound. Haunting keyboard and synth textures deliver an emotional, spine chilling sonic landscape to the music, while drummer Marco combines acoustic percussion with a mix of loops and samples in an alluring pulse of rhythm. Together they weave their hard-hitting laments into a tight, cohesive sound.
