Elusive Ontario hardcore / thrash band Curious Mold formed in 1985 out of the ashes of Kompost, with a little help from a guy who played in Beyond and another guy who shredded like fuck in his bedroom. Very influenced by the West Coast sound of Los Angeles / Orange County and the scales definitely tipped in favour of hardcore punk than thrash. They self-destructed somewhere around 1990, tried again in 1996 and 2000 for one of two practices and gave up hope. FFO: Final Conflict, Adolescents, Ripcord, Youth Of Today
