Declared as “It’s heady, it’s heavy, and it’s classic Cursive, now in twin territory” by Under The Radar, ‘I Am Gemini’ tells the surreal and powerful musical tale of Cassius and Pollock, twin brothers separated at birth. One good and one evil, their unexpected reunion in a house that is not a home ignites a classic struggle for the soul, played out with a cast of supporting characters that includes a chorus of angels and devils, and twin sisters conjoined at the head. Recorded at Omaha, NE’s ARC Studios and mixed at Red Room in Seattle, WA with producer Matt Bayles (Mastodon, Minus The Bear, Isis), the album – a dynamic, mind-bending, and imaginative ride – marks the first time front man Tim Kasher, with the completed story already in mind, wrote album lyrics in a linear fashion, in order, from song 1 to song 13.
Big Scary Monsters Records will release a special 12″ vinyl picture disc version of the album in the UK, hand-numbered and limited to just 500 copies. Available HERE
Cursive is the longtime trio of Kasher (vocals, guitar), Matt Maginn (bass), and Ted Stevens (guitar, vocals), with Patrick Newbery (keys) and Cully Symington (drums).
