Hole were a great band. I love everything they did in the 90s.
Eric Erlandson and Patty Schemel never got the credit they deserve.

Live Through This is one my fave albums of the '90s and I fucking cringe whenever I bring it up with normies and they are like "ughhhhhh I hate Courtney Love did you know she might have killed Kurt I saw this one thing on YouTube and blablablabla" ugh shut up

they don't sound all that similar though?

Curve themselves were well-versed in the music industry and had careers(Halliday as a failed new-wave popstar, Garcia as a failed touring musician) before they deliberately exploited shoegaze and the alternative dance sounds that were popping up in the late 80s / early 90s when developing Curve's sound. No honor among thieves, eh?
I fucking worship Curve btw so no disrespect meant, and even like some of Halliday's 80s pop shit, as plastic as it is.
