Nathan Katsiaficas was fortunate to catch Thursday and Cursive when the bands played Aura in Portland, Maine along with opening acts The Appleseed Cast and Nate Bergman. Peep his killer coverage right here!

Cursive is set to release an expanded, deluxe reissue of their 2003 breakthrough album The Ugly Organ on November 24, 2014 via Saddle Creek. The Ugly Organ (Deluxe Edition) [Remastered] will be available on 2xCD and 2xLP 180-gram vinyl, with eight additional tracks on the accompanying disc. These tracks – written during the same sessions as and originally intended for The Ugly Organ – were previously found across the band’s 8 Teeth To Eat You split with Eastern Youth, their “Art Is Hard” and “The Recluse” singles, and the Saddle Creek 50 compilation.
