New Cursive Video - "I Couldn't Love You"

Even when their songs are subpar, Cursive deserve a warm pat on the back for their ambitious, high-concept (and narrative) videos. The veteran crew's Mama, I'm Swollen single "From The Hips" was their best song in years, offering a chance...  CONTINUE READING NEW CURSIVE VIDEO - "I COULDN'T LOVE YOU"»

New Cursive Video - "From The Hips"

New Cursive - "I Couldn't Love You" & "From The Hips"

In a recent Progress Report, Cursive told us that their forthcoming Mama, I'm Swollen "is moodier, certainly moodier than Happy Hollow." Today there are listens to assess their self-assessment. You can hear the insanely catchy, wild-eyed '80s pop and Violens...  CONTINUE READING NEW CURSIVE - "I COULDN'T LOVE YOU" & "FROM THE HIPS"»

New Cursive Video - "Bad Sects"

"Bad Sects" equals "Bad Sex"... Get it? Looks like the hulking priest in the Nik Fackler-directed video for Cursive's "Bad Sects" does, too. For the longtime Omaha crew's topical look at homosexuality and the pulpit, father's downing bottles of Jameson,...  CONTINUE READING NEW CURSIVE VIDEO - "BAD SECTS"»
