The follow-up to 2006's Happy Hollow, the new album was recorded this past summer and fall at ARC Studios in Omaha, NE.

Wrestling with life's miseries and mysteries, Mama, I'm Swollen is an album brimming with the universal, questioning the human condition, social morality, and the 'Peter Pan Syndrome' of grown men. Road-tested and refined this past spring and summer via a series of one-off tour dates, Cursive recently previewed the new material to their ardent fans on an 11-date small club tour last month. Of the Cleveland show and new songs, Alternative Press' Music Editor Scott Heisel blogged: "I saw Cursive tonight. Holy h**l, they were awesome. They sprinkled five new songs into their set, my favorite of which has been titled 'What Have I Done?' by fans online. Stop whatever you're doing and spend the next eight minutes watching a video of this absolutely incredible song...I also want to hear Cursive's new album...ASAP."

1. In The Now
