Our Take

Indie darlings Cursive have always been masters of combining raw emotion with intricate storytelling in their music, and their latest album "The Difference Between Houses And Homes" is no exception.

From the opening track, "Some Red Handed Sleight of Hand," the band dives headfirst into a whirlwind of frenetic energy and unapologetic angst. Frontman Tim Kasher's lyrics are as biting and introspective as ever, tackling themes of love, loss, and everything in between.

Tracks like "Art is Hard" showcase Cursive's signature blend of aggressive guitar riffs and heart-wrenching melodies, while "Driftwood: A Fairy Tale" takes listeners on a haunting journey through a dark and twisted fairy tale world.

But it's the album's title track that truly steals the show, with its haunting piano melodies and soaring vocals creating a sense of longing and nostalgia that is impossible to shake.

Overall, "The Difference Between Houses And Homes" is a triumphant return for Cursive, showcasing the band at the top of their game and proving once again why they are considered one of the most influential bands in the indie rock scene. So grab your headphones, get comfy in your favourite armchair, and prepare to be taken on a rollercoaster of emotions with this masterpiece of an album.
