Listening to them again after over maybe a decade of having forgotten about them...

Ted said at the Portland Cursive show that a new Good Life album was written. No Cursive material for a bit but my guess is the recent one off dates were them playing life together for fun. No idea on a release but I assume sometime in Spring or Summer of this year.

New album is already being recorded and should be released early 2015! They played 2 new songs at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and that is where Tim announced the new album. It was amazing and I will post some photos soon.

I'm torn by these news. Would love new Cursive (last album was sorta naaaaaaaaaa) but new The Good Life would also be excellent. Tim Kasher's better than most people will ever know...

Seattle: http://audiobinge.tumblr.com/post/63900077488/fucking-treat Tim said no new songs have been written for Cursive. New Good Life material may be coming soon, maybe mid to late 2014.

I don't normally do this, but check out my album Drinking of You, extremely inspired by The Good Life: http://danscarpa.bandcamp.com/album/drinking-of-you

Spoke with Ted from Cursive last night and he said new Good Life may be on the way. Not sure but they're still together, just doing other life things. Stephanie had a baby I think. Tim is living in Chicago with his lady, those types of things.

Help wanted nights has brilliant lyrics. One of my favorite albums of all time and some tragedy has the most well written lyrics among all the songs of this genre.

I think Tim Kasher chord progressions and voice and stuff always take a while to get used to but surely aren't awful.

I meant to say Moonface. Spencer Krug is in Moonface. And you're right Dan Boeckner is in Handsome Furs. I got mixed up for a minute there, haha.

Spencer Krug is not in Handsome Furs! The other guy from Wolf Parade, Dan Boeckner, is in Handsome Furs.

@donotlabel I would suggest Wolf Parade and Handsome Furs, other bands with Spencer Krug (since you said you like Sunset Rubdown) and check out Owen. It's a solo project of a dude named Mike Kinsella and it's mostly acoustic music, but the lyrics are absolutely beautiful and touching.

And for the people labling this as emo- with all due respect, grab a dictionary and look at the definition. Emo is a whole differenr genre on it's own. Emotional lyrics does not make a band emo

This is simply brilliant. Kasher is a genius, there is nothing alike. I am into bands such as The Good Life, Sunset Rubdown, Frightened Rabbit, We Were Promised Jetpacks and The Airborne Toxic Event. Does anyone have any recommendations? Would be much appreciated

Yesterday I listened to O'Rourke's 1:20AM (and all of Black out) for the first time in 4 / 5 years. WOW, is that song (and album) just utterly astonishing. From start to finish, Black Out rocks my soul. But O'Rourke's really just blows me away. fantastic. Tim is the man.

I reviewed Tim Kasher's solo show in Tempe, AZ last Sunday and took some awesome pictures. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning! http://www.examiner.com/indie-music-in-phoenix/tim-kasher-at-the-sail-inn-11-14-10-picture?slide=25980786#mainpicture?slide=25980786#main

Tim Kasher is the most honest lyricist alive. "For The Love Of The Song" is one of the greatest pieces of self reflection I've ever heard.

Yes. Yes. Yes. This is one of those moments when The Good Life is just crashing down on me (the band, not the actual "good life", god forbid). The genius of Tim is not something I can avoid adoring (and why should I?).

Why is The Good Life tagged as emo?! Yes, Tim Kasher can be pretty damn whiny, but this is not freakin' Dashboard Confessional. Maybe I need brush up on my genre definitions.
