A striking, slow, simmering, smoky, shivery strings-laden new single by the acclaimed American artist, heralding a tenth studio album Goodbye Small Head, out on 16 May on Bella Union. The single’s title is named after the outdated term for a major seizure, and is inspired by the experience related by epileptic friend about the mystical quality of certain epileptic seizures. To explore and enjoy by Ezra Furman, see also the other embedded links below.
I believe in the shiver that comes in and takes over
I don't wait 'til it's over
I bathe in its waves
To the sea from the river I'm swept and pulled under
I will never recover
I won't be the same
It can happen whenever
I don't hold the lever
The shiver that severs the heart from the brain
And it burns through the tethers on electrical pathways
It hangs me up halfways between heaven and plain
And from here I see clearly, across rolling meadows
Around the earth curving and surging in pain
It's the circle that holds me
A wedding ring rolling
Across a black table
On a wedding day
