Cursive has been around a long time. Since 1995 the band has been putting out albums of the finest quality, most notably among these, the stellar,
The Ugly Organ in 2003. The band has been through a lot over the years, with break-ups, reunions, side projects and the like. Nevertheless it seems Cursive is as cohesive a unit as ever before. On their latest release,
Mama, I'm Swollen we are treated to the same band that we have known and loved for so many years, but one that has quite obviously matured. The band has just filmed their latest video for the first single off the new album, called "From The Hips". In it we see Tim Kasher and the gang as a sort of backup band to the lives of two people who seem to be dating all of their exes at the same time. While this may sound good at first, it leads to some pretty catastrophic and comical situations. Take a look. -
