Transangelic exodus

"Transangelic Exodus is a scrappy yet poignant rock & roll narrative of inner conflict and acceptance; its songs are a confessional and confrontational commentary on a historic period when so much is possible, even as fear, hate, and paranoia still hold the reins of power. Its energy, vulnerability, rage, and crafty poetics are awe-inspiring".

"Two years after the alt-retro ramalama rumpus of Perpetual Motion People, Chicago's Ezra Furman wanted to make something "more original" for his next album. Consider the job done, in style ... Voice serrated, Furman braids each tale with ragged sonic dramatics, with scrambled arrangements jittering over rhythms that bustle like escapees from Tom Waits' junkyard".

"His fourth solo album, Transangelic Exodus, is his most thematically cohesive work to date: a loose narrative about supernatural queer lovers on the run from the law. The misfit feelings surging through his back catalog crystallize here into detailed imagery, giving the album a lurid, cinematic sheen".
