I saw them live a few months ago and I was really impressed, I had high expectations anyways. Some songs I personally like are: Sierra, The Recluse (everyone's favorite), Art is Hard, The Lament of Pretty Baby etc etc. I think its Tim Kasher, but one of the members of cursive is married to one of the duo of Azure Ray.
 just random knowledge.

i think they're a bit too loud for my tastes, but i liked "after the movies" immediately when i first listened to it.

I love Cursive - I think the first album I heard was domestica? I was obssessed with The Casualty for a while, I don't think I could ever get sick of it The Rhyme Scheme, The Great Decay, The Martyr, Sucker & Dry, A Gentleman Caller, The Recluse... I'm probably biased but I think any band from SC are worth the listen. --------------------  ✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿ "semi-hiatus" |
