Finally getting a chance to post this. This is one of my favorite albums of all time. My 13 year old self is screaming in delight right now. @cursivetheband has been one of my biggest musical influences for over 10 years of my life and I’m beyond pumped for this reissue and their upcoming tour dates in March! #TheUglyOrgan #DeluxeReissue #Cursive #SaddleCreekRecords

Cursive - What Have I Done? (via thecircazeppelin)

The summer between my junior and senior year of college, I painted this flat for my scenic painting course. I chose to replicate Cursive’s album art for “The Ugly Organ”. The colors aren’t perfect, but I gave it my own little twist.This album holds so much meaning for me. It was the first album I heard by Cursive and by a band on Saddle Creek Records. Being from the Omaha metro area has allowed me to experience Cursive first hand. This album got me through so much in high school and now with the rerelease, I feel like it will help me get through so much more! I will never forget the way I felt when I first heard “The Ugly Organ”. Truly one of the greatest recordings of my time! Thank you, @Cursivetheband for the feels.

So The Ugly Organ has been my favorite album for a majority of my life. I’ve always been too young to go to a concert but I just finally bought tickets to see Cursive in March and I’ve never been so excited. “The worst is over” 🎧🎹🎶 #UglyOrganContest

The very first time I listened to The Ugly Organ I was in the car with two of my best friends at that time. We had just watched ‘From Hell’ at another friend’s house and as we were leaving it was raining and the power was out on the street. That was when one of the bastards decided to blast on Harold Weathervein on the car, as if we were not scared enough. The song had this atmosphere and I’ll never forget how it felt when I first heard it. We just stood there listening quietly to the whole album.

Life came upside down a few times since then, but I always relate Cursive albums with the most important friendships I have/had and how they managed to see us survive through our roughest moments. Our priorities have changed, we have changed a lot, but always had the band as an ‘intersection’ in our tastes and our lives as music fans.

In 2012 a group of friends managed something amazing: bringing Cursive for two shows in Brazil. I didn’t know it back then, but it was the perfect opportunity to see that all the shit I had been through was in a long lost past and that the music is one of the few things that stays forever. For our little group, it was cathartic to finally be able to scream “do do do do do do do do the worst is over“ from the top of our lungs as you can (barely) see in one of the photos.

After the shows I was left with this beautiful setlist, a new “family“ and so many incredible memories. I can’t thank Cursive and everyone else involved in those shows enough. Really.

We’re at our best when it’s from our hips From our hips we don’t give a shit It just feels good and that’s no sin It’s the only way to feel alive The closest thing to being born again And when baby comes it’s job well done Roll in the hay, oh roll around the sun

From the Hips, Cursive (via cutewithoutthe)
