Through the Boston music community, Ezra Furman met Alex Walton and the two have released a collaborative single. While Furman's musical output has been varied and eclectic, I haven't heard her release anything quite like "Tie Me to the Train Tracks." This new single is much more rock based than we normally hear from the artist, and much noisier. At times this is a straight up noise rock track, although the pair inject a surprising amount of melody into it. The song moves from being an alt-singer-songwriter song to noise rock to alt-pop, and sometimes all three. Every time Furman releases new music it's thrilling, but also leaves us wondering what she will do next. "Tie Me to the Train Tracks" has us dying to hear what comes next.
Ezra Furman says of her new single with Alex Walton:
"We made this song in a burst of neurotic passion at her old house in Roxbury, Boston one chronically-ill afternoon. The chains of luv had got us in their mortal grasp and it all came pouring out. And there’s a B-side (‘Beat Me Up’) too, out of this miniature masochistic fragment I’d made up which she then made into a brilliant full song, played and recorded entirely by her, that hits hard and leaves a mark. I don’t know how she does it but I feel lucky to do it with her.”
You can watch the video for "Tie Me to the Train Tracks" below. The song is out now via Bella Union with a B-side of "Beat Me Up." For more on Ezra Furman, check out the artist on Instagram.
