Cursive - Devourer
'Devourer' is a knotty, visceral listen.
Lyrics
A right at the light It's the long way home But we've got a long time to kill Before our guts are gutted Of bad blood they've spilled
I left on the light Directions won't make sense to unsensing eyes I've such insensitive eyes I'm so fucking blind Aren't I?
Or so it seems But we just can't see anything Past our sight Or frames of mind Our senses are snowblind They've left us cold and crippled Unwilling to reveal our bludgeoned egos
Turn off the light This conversation's over The verdict has arrived There's no communication When we're too deaf to hear opposing sides
These eyes have no sight past my mind These senses are so blind They've left me cruelly crippled Encased within the ego Frozen ego
Keep driving Past the light Keep driving Out of mind Out of sight

From Dork
'Devourer' is a knotty, visceral listen.
For nearly 30 years, Tim Kasher and co. have challenged genre conventions, keeping Cursive's sound fiercely unpredictable.
Indie-rock stalwarts Cursive are back with their first album in six years. With society falling apart around us, it's a suitably vitriolic reaction to the state of the world.
‘Vitriola’ bubbles and boils with anger and simmers with regret and futility.
