Ezra Furman announces new album 'Goodbye Small Head', shares first single
Alongside the announcement, Furman has shared new single 'Grand Mal', accompanied by a video directed by Eleanor Petry.
Ezra Furman has announced her tenth studio album 'Goodbye Small Head', set for release via Bella Union. The album follows 2022's 'All Of Us Flames'.
Alongside the announcement, Furman has shared new single 'Grand Mal', accompanied by a video directed by Eleanor Petry.
Speaking about the new record, Furman explains: "Goodbye Small Head is the name of this record. Twelve songs, twelve variations on the experience of completely losing control, whether by weakness, illness, mysticism, BDSM, drugs, heartbreak or just living in a sick society with one's eyes open. These songs are vivid with overwhelm. They're not about someone going off the rails, they are inside that person's heart."

The album was recorded in Chicago with producer Brian Deck, who previously worked with Furman on 'Banging Down the Doors' and 'Inside the Human Body'. "In some way I think I was trying to return to a much younger mindset, when all the intensity and fear and emotion of life was less mediated by adult coping mechanisms. When it was all brand new with no filter," Furman adds.
