5.0 out of 5 stars You need this record, June 5, 2000
This review is from: Such Blinding Stars for Starving Eyes (Audio CD)
Forget everything you know or don't know about so-called "emo" bands, this album is absolutely incredible, regardless of any label applied to it. I borrowed this CD from a friend, listened to the first song, then went online and bought everything by this band. That's the only time I've ever done something like that. They are amazing. It's so raw, so genuine. Everything Tim Kasher says, sings, or screams comes off sounding so brutally honest that you can't listen to the whole thing the first time through. It gives you the most beautiful hurting you can ever experience from music. I don't know how many times I've listened to it, and it is still in heavy rotation in my car and at home. I've lost my voice several times in the car, driving on the freeway and screaming, getting so lost in the intensity. This is an album that is so good from beginning to end, that you discover it in stages. You listen to the first few songs over and over because they are so good, and eventually you start getting all the way through it, and you discover that the songs in the middle and at the end are just as good, if not better than the first few.

This review is from: Such Blinding Stars for Starving Eyes (Audio CD)
every single one of cursives albums is absolutely amazing...but this one i must say tops them all. tim kashers unrefined emotion has never been captured so well as on this album, nor has any other album that i have heard by anyone come close to this level of perfection.
