Ezra Furman’s All Of Us Flames has been released on New Music Friday – stream it here on Live4ever.
The new album from Ezra Furman is out today, and it all started with Point Me Toward The Real – one of several singles which have been released since March.
“This is a neo-soul song about getting released from a psychiatric hospital, which has never happened to me,” Furman said of it.
“But really it’s a song about what you do right after abuse, imprisonment, a brush with death. Who do you call when it’s supposedly over? Where do you go? How do you know what you want?”
“We’ve all recently been going through something terrifying. We’ve all made friends with death in the last two years. When I look to the future, I want to know who has my back? Whose back do I have? And what is real, what and who can I rely on? Point me toward the real; there’s no other direction I want to go.”
