Cursive - Devourer
'Devourer' is a knotty, visceral listen.
Lyrics
There's a pond beyond the hospital All night long I watch the wind ripple From the windows of the ICU The warbled mirror of a waning moon
If you can hear me, just squeeze my hand Everybody is flying in I keep shooing away the chaplain
Flowers frame the walls of the hallway I began to learn them all by name Marigolds can often stand for death The nurse suggested buying baby's breath
If you can hear me, just squeeze my hand Blink your eyes if you understand Maybe we should call the chaplain

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.
