Released in 1998 and written as a response to his sisters suicide and mothers fatal battle with lung cancer, shit's a little bleak. Album starts off with Elizabeth On The Bathroom Floor, a song composed using one of his sisters final diary entries. Followed with Going To Your Funeral and Cancer For The Cure. Also of note is Climbing To The Moon which is about visiting his sister in a psychiatric facility.

This guy came out in 2000. Third album they did. Good shit here and right here. Oh and of course there is always this one. Plus you can't forget It's A Motherfucker.
Concept album from Cursive. Shit's about a couple (as evidenced by the cover I'd assume). Roughly patterned around Kasher's divorce. The Casualty is a good one, as is The Martyr.
Another concept album by Cursive. This one essentially being a Pinocchio story, only with love and empty sex. Art Is Hard is a standout track as are The Recluse and Driftwood: A Fairy Tale.
What do you know, another concept album by Cursive. Well, loosely at least. This one revolves around a small town and deals with religion and hypocrisy. Album opens with Opening The Hymnal/Babies (the latter half of which manages to have stuck that "baby baby baby" line in my head since I first heard it). That's followed by Dorothy At Forty, which is then followed by Big Bang. Those should give a fair indication as to the subject matter and sound.
