[TOMT] Album/band that I can't find any information on

Does anyone know about the band downcurv or their album dC? Checking their Discogs page shows that it was an alt gothic metal album with five songs released as a CD and as a record in 2001, but I can't find an online archive of it anywhere, or any other information about downcurv or the album. I can't find any information on when the album was lost, so I have to assume that the release was too small to notice or be properly archived. In the absence of an archive it may be the only way to listen to the album, and judging by their last.fm page, this is their only release.

The only other place I have found info on this album is on Giles "The DeVille" Sheperd's webpage, who used to sync albums to movies (think Dark Side of the Rainbow). This page shows his sync of the album with The Nightmare before Christmas, which includes some brief audio clips of the songs, and also provides a sheet of lyrics for the whole album. Any googling of "downcurv" or "dC" mostly shows the info about the film sync.

[Partially Lost] downcurv - dC

Need help finding lost/obscure album

I'm trying to find this album called downcurv (spelled all lowercase, no "e") by the group dC. The only information I can find about the album or band is from their Discogs page, and even then there isn't much. All I can identify is that it was an alt gothic metal EP released in 2001, and is the group's only release.

The only other place I have found this album is from an archive of Giles "DeVille" Sheperd's webpage. He was an active member of the film synching community (link for more info if anyone's interested). His sync of downcurv with Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas provides brief audio segments of some of the songs, which are the only sources for any of the tracks as far as I know. He also provides a full list of lyrics for the album. Any other search refers to DeVille's website or the sync.

Which version of me had the best taste (explanation in post)

Row 1 - Baby. Self-explanatory.

Row 2 - Elementary school. My folks gave me my first pair of headphones.

Row 3 - Middle school. Mostly listening to music that me and my parents like, aside from some outliers.

Row 4 - Tween years. Trying to branch out more from my parents' taste.

Row 5 - High school. Kid A opens me up to more genres.

Row 6 - Freshman year of college. My parents are fully convinced by now that all I listen to is garbage and that they should have raised me better.
