***Cursed Arrows' new album, TELEPATHIC HIGH-FIVE, will be released in Fall 2009.***
Cursed Arrows is a loud two-piece rock band that was born bloody, disoriented, and determined in 2006.
A product of passion, compulsion, and musical and marital commitment, they have played frequent and aggressive live shows in tiny houses and larger venues across Southern Ontario. Outside of playing shows, they kept themselves hidden away in a quiet little town for several years writing albums and perpetuating their reclusive and introspective existence.
In 2007, the duo independently released their debut full-length album, Knives Are Falling From The Sky - but they were not quite their present selves. Cursed Arrows will release their second full-length, Telepathic High-Five, sometime in the Autumn of 2009.
Like the first album, Telepathic High-Five was recorded at the tip of a peninsula. Unlike the first, the second is cursed - and soon to be unleashed, many tattoos and epiphanies later.
Presently eliciting comparisons to The Pixies, Heavy Vegetable, Sonic Youth, Jawbreaker, and Dinosaur Jr, Cursed Arrows push themselves to write songs they would want to hear, and allow their musical influences, political views, and intense emotional dynamic to pervade their recordings and live shows.
Why fight what makes it right?
Reviews of Knives Are Falling From The Sky
~ Exclaim!
Stark, emotion-drenched post-punk.
~ Within Earshot blog
Beefy, sludgy guitars that not so subtly allude to Nirvana at its messiest or Sebadoh at its most stoned.
~Aversion.com
Bombastic, dark rock.
~ Delusions of Adequacy
A sound that effectively marries Lightning Dust with The Melvins...valiant attempt at a post-grunge masterpiece.
