Buy the new Cursive album online for only $3...for now

Cursive's new album, Mama, I'm Swollen, is available online today as a digital download for only $3. It's all part of a Saddle Creek/Cursive promotion that is giving fans a chance to have the new record at a discounted price before its official release next Tuesday, March 10.

The promotion started on Sunday (March 1), when the album was available for $1. Each day, the price of the record increases by $1, until the official release date, when it will remain at the regular digital download price of $9.

Following the release, Cursive will hit the road. The band is playing eight shows in cities including New York, L.A. and San Diego before taking the stage at SXSW. And for those whose towns Cursive isn't visiting, the band will play on the Late Show with David Letterman on March 13.
