Perpetual motion people

"Doused in saucy saxophones that make it sound like the sort of ramshackle '50s retro revue that Mac DeMarco might make if he fronted Dexys Midnight Runners, it hops, skips and jumps between genres with abandon. One minute he's lovelorn Neil Young ('Hour Of Deepest Need') or roots rock Neutral Milk Hotel ('Tip Of A Match'), the next he's skiffle Showaddywaddy ('Pot Holes') or drunk Benny Hill ('Wobbly'). "I was sick of this ordinary life... you've gotta keep it new to keep it true", he explains on acoustic glam anthem 'Ordinary Life'. It's a philosophy that makes 'Perpetual Motion People', from beat pop opener to gospel closer, a constantly surprising and relentlessly melodic pleasure".

"Ezra Furman er udstyret med en virkelig skarp og flabet vokal. Der er både lidt Robbie og lidt Freddie Mercury over hans fraseringer og den power, han leverer med. At han samtidig er en finurlig historiefortæller, gør det ikke mindre underholdende ... Musikalsk svinger Perpeual Motion People mellem lo-fi-indie og bombastisk 70'er-klingende (glam) rock, med masser af blæsere, både messing og træ, og lir".
