Maybe it's just the fact that this is my first Cursive album, but I'm loving this CD so far.



And dissing "Caveman" makes me rather cross, the damn thing's been stuck in my head for days, in a good way.

so good. may be moving it up to 4.5 real soon.



From The Hips and What Have I Done? are the best. out of all their albums, this one has the most variety and won't wear off fast.This Message Edited On 03.12.09

i think we can all agree at least that the end of 'let me up' is the best thing ever

What Have I Done? is enough to give this album a 4.

Mama, the planet is a placenta
Pull the plug
Let the heavens rise above
Won't you let me up?

Let me up and in the now are the best songs, but otherwise hit and miss

Yea, it's by no means bad (especially From the Hips + What Have I Done?) but it's not a Domestica or even an Ugly Organ.

From The Hips and What Have I Done? are the best.

Add Let Me Up to that list, and you're correct.



Also, just for clarification, is this a concept album or not? The repeated lyrical themes (Mama, Hell), plus the album lyric sheet seem to suggest a loose concept album, but I've heard conflicting things.
