EP Review by LoudGuitars
Toronto, Canada band Crooked Valentine pumping Zombie meets rage !!!! Totally made me want to move my hips and shake my head back and forth. After having seen the band live i can honestly say that they back up the energy and grind on the EP. The recording itself could be better, I found it a little thin for music with this assault and drive. I am sure it will be on the finished record. Guitars sound good very tight, Lindsay has a presence I can only describe as extremely sexual and commanding, If you are after something you can totally dance to and bang your head "This is it". Unfortunately I am on an international flight so I can't damn it !!! I found myself wanting more at the end of the 4th song, I recommend a listen and a trip to see them live. Downloads available on iTunes and be sure to Check them out on Facebook. 4 etoile…….

In the Spotlight: Live Review by Gigsurfer
Blasting a hard-hitting industrial sound with a metallic edge, they’ve got an addictive presence on stage and a pleasure jam to. Accompanied with some groovy guitar riffs and bass lines along side some incredibly catchy hooks by miss Valentine herself, they’re in your face, fueled with a ton of energy and hell of a lot of fun. On August 31st, as part of an event hosted by radio station, 102.1 The Edge the legendary Horseshoe Tavern was the place to be. With no cover and a total of four bands playing, for rock n’ roll fans it was a night definitely worth checking out. As due to a very mixed lineup of acts encompassing a variety of different genres, there was certainly something for everyone… but for those looking for something a little heavier, Crooked Valentine stole the show. They played a number of tracks for the enjoying crowd including, “Dead Zone” and “Gates of Hell,” as well as perfectly fitting cover of Rage Against the Machine’s “Bulls of Parade.” For hungry fans during and afterwords, “Crooked” cupcakes were available for consumption for only a dollar or two a piece, but some recorded material or merch for sale would have been even better. The band is planning on releasing a new EP and new fans can eagerly await it dropping in the near future.

I Knew This Night Would Be Awesome by MusicPsychos
I knew the night was going to be awesome from the moment I got to The Hideout - one of Toronto's coolest venues. The vibe was dark, sexy, dangerous - everything you could want in a rock show. Since seeing A Primitive Evolution at the Hard Rock Cafe in the Winter, I'd fallen in love with them and eagerly awaited another chance to see them again. When I heard the other bands that would join them that night, I knew this would be a night to remember. The first band, Crooked Valentine, blew my mind from their very first verse.The first thing I could manage to say was "Holy shit!"; swearing at my co-writer Bryen, who had recommended the band to me previously. My eyes and ears were pleasantly surprised and widely opened to witness their raging performance. It was hard to take my eyes off the front woman, Lindsey Valentine. Her killer look and energetic performance was irresistible. She screamed from the bottom of her lungs, spit her drinks all over the place, makeup ran everywhere - she was so hot to watch; she sure knows how to rock a crowd. Step by step the audience was drawn in closer and closer to the stage. They had a nice surprise for all of us that got to the Hideout early enough too - Brett Carruthers from A Primitive Evolution joined in on the screaming for a song! They were done far too soon - I wanted more! Be sure to keep an eye on these kids - see them if you haven't!

FAT - Crooked Valentine by Fashion.Art.Toronto
Crooked Valentine – |FAT| 2011 Posted on May 7, 2011 by annecayer | 1 Comment Sometimes all the world needs is a little rock ‘n roll. And with a beer-spitting front woman? Even better. With heavy metal influence and stage presence to spare, Crooked Valentine took to the FAT stage to deliver a hard rocking performance. The band is fronted by Valentine, and she’s the kind of woman you want to see on stage – loud, strong, and able to hold her own against the bass-heavy music blasting from the speakers. And the band deserves equal props: Lady Machete on drums, C.C. Spit on guitars and Joe Bass on bass all delivered a killer show. The music was loud, powerful, and exceeded far beyond the walls of 99 Sudbury. This, in my opinion, is the true testament of a great live band; even in a small space they made you feel like you could have been in a massive arena listening to the biggest band of the world. Not an easy feat to accomplish, but Crooked Valentine does it with ease. Songs were straight up metal and rock, with a few covers thrown in for good measure, including Rage classic Bulls on Parade and a rendition of the Ghostbusters theme that got The Teddy Bear Project bear-man dancing his furry little heart out. So if you’re looking for an awesome live show, sets your eyes on Crooked Valentine.
