Cursive - Devourer
'Devourer' is a knotty, visceral listen.
Cruz Beckham
Lyrics
Everything is all right here, All clear, get yourself another We'll stay up all night And toast to friends we never had. Stranger angels have snuck around this table But they disappear So how did we end up here?
I might be another night Keep the couch pulled out Leave a key inside the mailbox. I might be a parasite If you feel sucked dry Then I grab too tight If you feel sucked dry Then I grab too tight If I ever let go, you'd stop my disease.
Take some time to think it over, slower, You're only getting older Take all day, let your rationale rush away Meanwhile I'll stay imprisoned by your mistakes Persistence, It's the anchor that will drown me
I might be another night Keep the couch pulled out Leave a key inside the mailbox I might be a parasite Sucker & dry With a kiss goodnight Sucker & dry With a kiss goodnight If I every let go, they'll suffocate me

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.
