We talked to Cursive frontman Tim Kasher before the band’s Bowery Ballroom gig a couple of months ago. There is a misconception that their lyrics are all autobiographical, and he confronted it head on: “I really scratch my head about why I got wrapped up in that and why I’m in those crosshairs. Plenty of times I’ve run into people who I can tell are asking me questions and are judging or grading me on my answers because, if things aren’t autobiographical they think it’s inauthentic and that I’m doing a disservice to them or to the music that I do. And I don’t know why that happened. There are so many songwriters who write personal things — as I do as well – but then also don’t, but something happened along the way that people have certain demands of me.”
