Tim Kasher is one of indie rocks great lyricists of the last
decade, but damn sometimes these angsty emo lyrics
get a little tired, and disappointly he seems to be heading
back to the more emo-punk roots of Cursive's early
material. I mean, this isn't like what emo is NOW
(guyliner and long shitty song titles and bedazzled
hoodies), but the salad days of emo back in the mid 90s,
so it has that going for it. Sadly, it lacks a lot the smarts
of the last few Cursive albums. Still better than most stuff
out there. Fuck I'm torn on this album. Part of me enjoys
it, and the other part of me is longing for an album like
"Domestica" or "The Ugly Organ". This is probably a
smarter move monetarily though, as the shit I like isn't
usually the same stuff that connects with 14 yr. olds in
tight dick-pants. Dick pants are back and people like me
who are old and out of touch can suck it. |
