   About The Curvy Straights



The Curvy Straights’ raw, indie sound can be traced back to such influential bands as Built to Spill, Neil Young, Modest Mouse and the theme song from The Great Space Coaster. This weird, emotive indie rock ensemble trembles with introspective darkness, weaving a tapestry of epic intensity and pop flavoring that alternately confuses and delights. According to singer/guitarist Matt Lintzenich, "The songs are a frenzy of emotive backlash against the spiritual dissolution and loss associated with the unstoppable rotation of the galaxy."
