Artist History
Curiosity is a solo, female fronted industrial project founded by Curiosity Valentine in 1995. Curiosity plays all of the instruments and writes all of the songs on the recordings herself. In 1997, Curiosity won the CDNow Unheard? Contest with the song "Vitamin Sugar." Her first album, MegaJolt LightningBolt, was completed in December of 1999. In 2000 and 2001 a band was aquired, and a handful of live shows were performed. Curiosity continues to write and record music out of Chicago, Illinois. She is currently looking for band members to resurrect the live show and be her slaves for no reason. She is also working on a new album which should be finished by a completely unknown release date... |

Press Reviews
"I kind of like the thought of a riveted chanteuse in leather wailing away on stage in a smokey jazz club filled with freaks."-Jen Szczublewski, ohiogoth.org.....
"So last night I'm driving around with my friend,Nat,
and I pop in your cd and our jaws dro pped. We listen
to almost all 20 of the songs that were on the cd and
were just amazed, we sat their dissecting, listening,
going back and re-listening again and again. Came very
close to getting into 2 accidents (that we're aware
of) and just fell in love with your music."
-Yohan B......
"If you took the vocals of Switchblade Symphony and the music of Snake River Conspiracy, Curiosity would be the taste you would recieve. I'm proud to be Curi's groupie slut and she needs to be recognized for her talent."
-Kyle S......
