Just go to www.simon-curtis.com and bathe in all it's wonderful amazingness in bright technicolour red.  There you will find loads of new photos by Tyler Shields, all the lyrics from "RA" and the familar yet innovate site layout, art and design by Norik.  And for those of you who don't know who Vincent Did It actually is on the remix for "Flesh"...he's really Frankmusik (shhh).

So we've seen Simon's tonsils and now we get to see Simons lower torso hair...I have to ask you now...what's next?...

Don't be a dork - make sure you own "RA" on download too.

EQ's Thoughts On "RΔ" by Simon Curtis

It's no secret that I've been listening to a pre-release demo version of "RΔ" by Simon Curtis for awhile now ahead of his blazing appearance at EQ Live last month and I have to say that even when the final mastered album was sprung onto iTunes yesterday (surprise!), I was still left amazed at how well "RΔ" has been executed and received. 

In less than 24 hours, "RΔ" has already charted on many international iTunes pop charts and is climbing as you read this.  With still no manager, no publicist and no record label - Simon Curtis has set the standard for independent pop this year, proving that with the power of the web, a strong sense of belief and an army of devoted fans that you know, nurture and communicate with - becoming a pop star is still achievable in the day and age of social networking and a dying recorded music industry.

So what do I think of "RΔ"?  Well, it's an angry album, something of which Simon warned us about by penning the sound as "evil N'Sync" before his London show last month.  But the best music comes out angry and torn artists, am I right?  What would "Jagged Little Pill" have been like if Alanis Morisette weren't pissed off?  What would "Rumors" by Fleetwood Mac have sounded like if the band members didn't secretly despise each other?  But what exactly is Simon Curtis so angry about?
