Cursive today shared the dark, moody, and cinematic video for their song “Dark Star,” from their acclaimed recent album Devourer. Directed by Jenn Wexler (The Ranger, The Sacrifice Game), it’s the final installment of the band’s series of horror-themed clips created around the album by genre directors, following “Bloodbather,” by Chelsea Stardust (Satanic Panic, All That We Destroy) and starring Shannon Purser (Stranger Things, Riverdale, Sierra Burgess Is A Loser) and Aurora Perrineau (Westworld, Kaos); “Up and Away,” by Brea Grant (12 Hour Shift, Torn Hearts); “Botch Job,” by Travis Stevens (A Wounded Fawn, Jakob’s Wife, Girl On The Third Floor); and “Imposturing,” directed by singer/guitarist Tim Kasher.
“‘Dark Star’ is a moodier song from Devourer, a song about wrestling with the darkness in us all,” Kasher explains. “The video, helmed by director Jenn Wexler, playfully lays out an evening of debauchery that ends in horror.”
Cursive’s west coast U.S. headline tour begins this Thursday, January 30th, in Fort Collins, CO, and Pile will support on all dates. Following the run, this April the band will also support Bright Eyes on a run of North American tour dates. A current itinerary is below.
