8 Teeth to Eat You

Cursive

Jagged guitars and aggressive cello arrangements collide with self-lacerating vocals. A high-tension snapshot of early 2000s Midwestern indie rock.

A high-strung, claustrophobic exploration of personal failure and the desire for flight.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition from the spoken-word narrative intro into the jagged, cello-driven main riff of track 1.
The way the guitars and cello lock into a frantic, dissonant unison during the bridge of Escape Artist.
The haunting, repetitive vocal refrain on May Flowers that slowly dissolves into a wash of feedback and strings.
