Cursive - Mama, I'm Swollen (2009)

If you think Cursive is rolling downhill ever since Happy Hollow, you are not alone. If you think Cursive is better off dead after the epic 2005 release of the best Cursive album ever (read: The Ugly Organ), put on your heels and jump on the boat! Fortunately this year, Tim Kasher has stopped playing favorites in his two-timing job (Cursive/The Good Life) and has therefore taken Cursive a step forward. Note: I say step forward, not leap forward (better than Happy Hollow, way behind The Ugly Organ).


Cursive - Mama, I'm Swollen

Mama, I'm Swollen will be available on March 10 for you CD/vinyl junkies, in its physical best, to fit your record player.
