Cursive (formed in 1995) is an American four piece indie-rock and post-hardcore band hailing from Omaha, Nebraska, in the U.S.
Formed of members Tim Kasher, Matt Magian and Steve Pederson in 1995, the members were previously in the band Slow Virginia, before experimenting with a more varied sound. The band’s debut the “Disruption 7”” was released on a friend’s label Saddle Creek followed shortly after by “Sucker and Dry 7”” on the label Zero Hour. Despite not producing a huge critical buzz, the releases highlighted the strong and emotive lyrics of the group with Kasher’s powerfully fervent voice.
The band’s 1997 debut album titled “Such Blinding Stars for Starving Eyes” released as a split deal between Crank! A Record Company and New York’s Interplanetary Truckers Union, did however cause a stir; the album received more than laudable acclaim and the band were now a recognisable act.
After a subsequent tour until 1998, Cursive released another 7” entitled “Disruption” and a split 10” with Austin, Texas, U.S. band Silver Scooter. The band’s follow up album “The Storms of Early Summer: Semantics of Song” took the band in a more emo-inspired lyrical direction, introducing concepts of fragility, the incompetence of words to describe feelings, and using self-depreciating humour.
Soon after to many fan’s despair, Cursive disbanded to work on other creative interests including the bands Commander Venus and Bright Eyes. The hiatus led to a period of introspection and the band re-formed to produce “Domestica” in June 2000. Like its predecessor, the LP was a concept album describing the ultimate emotional and physical downfall of a domestic couple, notably lead singer Kasher’s, full of sporadic and limping rhythms.
Pederson departed from the group to continue his education and made way for Ted Stevens formerly of Lullaby for the Working Class and around the same time saw the arrival of Gretta Cohn on cello.
Lead singer Kasher released his solo debut album “Novena on a Nocturn” under the moniker the Good Life in 2001, the same year marked Cursive’s follow up EP “Burst and Bloom”. Cursive’s two subsequent continued the emotively conceptual trends of their earlier releases. 2003’s “The Ugly Organ” describes hollow sexual encounters using unpredictable rhythm and bat out of hell guitar, and “Happy Hollow” in 2006 explore religious inconsistencies in a fictional Western town.
Since then the band has released “Mama, I’m Swollen in 2009, and the much heavier “I Am Gemini” in 2012, produced by Mastodon and Isis producer Matt Bayles.
Mehr erfahrenThe first time I saw Cursive they were opening up for a band I deeply appreciated. I was surprised to hear some of the fans sitting behind me say that they were more excited to see Cursive than the main act, but after Cursive performed I could see why. The band’s lead singer and songwriter, Tim Kasher, has an undeniable charismatic presence on stage that is hard not to get drawn into. He sings with such intense emotion and frustration that it forces the audience to pay attention to every word of his lyrics. His emotive lyrics are accompanied by cacophonous, distorted guitars, and rapid drumming that correspond appropriately to the chaotic emotions that Kasher’s lyrics convey. Kasher’s lyrics usually depict vivid imagery and symbolism, and his presentation of these lyrics are projected in a raspy, tumultuous voice that further allows the audience to connect to the unstable emotions he is conveying.
Cursive has many post-hardcore and emo elements to their music, but they also have branched out from their more raw style of performance and have included more orchestral arrangements with the use of horns. The guitar playing is often very angular, creating catchy hooks, which are layered over the strong rhythmic playing of the bass and drums. There are also parts in some of their songs where keyboards are incorporated to create an atmospheric sound. The fans at a Cursive show are always dedicated to the music, singing all the lyrics to the songs with just as much passion as Tim Kasher’s intense delivery. Cursive’s sincerity is what makes them such a well-loved band, and their energetic performance is how Cursive forms their connection with their fans.
I've waited 12 years for this show. I missed the original Ugly Organ tour with Gretta and I've never quite recovered from that regret. But this show was OUTSTANDING. Even the opening bands killed it. The first, Megafauna, wasn't really my bag, per se, but I definetely appreciated the musicianship. The lead guitarist and vocalist - a female - absolutely killed it and demonstrated the kind of enviable skills that will inspire little girls all over the country (I told my husband thats what I think I look like when I play Rock Band). The next opener, Beach Slang, was great! Their lead singer had this really charming, kind of boyish verbal diarrhea, when speaking, that reminded all of us of early Conner Oberst, which can't ever be a negative comparison. And then there was Cursive .... just awesome. It was amazing to hear and see that cello being played on some of those epic cello-heavy tracks like "Butcher the Song" and "Harold Weathervein". They played EVERY song that I was dying to hear, including "Mothership, Mothership", off Burst and Bloom and "The Martyr" off Domestica. And, just as you'd want them to, they encored with "Sierra" and "Staying Alive". I've seen them play 4 other times, over the last 12 years, but this was the most well-rounded show, as far as satisfying the craving for all the oldies. Just AWESOME.
Great show. Saw Cursive 10 years ago at the same venue and barely knew who they were. 10 years later, they sound amazing and out there. Loud, complex, sounds worked really well with the cello and they all had a great time on stage.
