Cursive's Tim Kasher On The Good, The Bad & 'The Ugly Organ'
. Just be clear, it was their label, Saddle Creek's idea to celebrate the milestone, not theirs. Kasher even admitted that he hadn't actually sat down and listened to the entire deluxe edition, telling Radio.com over the phone days before its re-release that he had only gotten through the first half of the vinyl, which now features eight additional tracks, but was "really relieved" at how it sounded. What Kasher hates about the record--the band's fourth studio LP and their "most alienating" in the frontman's mind--isn't the music necessarily, it's how it made him feel about himself. "I always had a strange relationship with this record because it started to feel like, 'Oh crap, everyone's going to hate this' and then it changed to a different kind of distaste I had for it. 'Why does everyone love this one so much?'" Kasher says. "I started to distrust the record and distrust myself, distrust my songwriting. It made me kind of question if I was somehow selling out without realizing it." The singer admits he doesn't have a lot of good memories from the time of the record. "I think it's a shame that I don't remember the better things, I don't remember the positive," he says. "But I think that's how we are as human beings. You remember all the awful things your parents did, don't remember the good things they did for you." Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
