Ezra Furman Announces Sex Education Original Soundtrack

Jan 21, 2020

Following the success of last year’s Twelve Nudes, Ezra Furman announces Sex Education OST, songs from season 1 and 2 of the hit Netflix TV show.

“SEX EDUCATION,” SEASON 2: THE DOCTOR IS IN

Jan 21, 2020

When it débuted on Netflix last year, the British series “Sex Education,” created and co-written by Laurie Nunn, established itself as one of the freshest, funniest, and most humane depictions of teen life in years. (Its second season came out on Friday.) It centers on Otis (Asa Butterfield), a mild-mannered teen who, despite being a virgin in a dorky windbreaker, in the first season becomes a sex therapist to his high-school peers. He’s got hangups—he won’t even masturbate—but, all around him, the world is bursting with vitality and lust, and, because his divorced parents are both sex therapists, he’s got the concepts down. A savvy classmate, Maeve (Emma Mackey), notices his talent for giving advice, and the plot unfurls from there. “Sex Education” has fun with its concept and characters while respecting them: we get to know people through their intimate vulnerabilities, alongside diagrams of genitalia and phrases like “scrotal anxiety.” As they manage their clinic and their lives, Otis and Maeve fall in love, but not at the same time. The writing and performances (many by relatively unknown young actors) are so sharp that, by the end of the first season, the status of each relationship felt like a cliffhanger.

The Songs In Sex Education Season 2 Will Get You In The Mood (Yes, That Kind Of Mood)

Jan 21, 2020

It might seem tired to use the Divinyls’ masturbation anthem “Touch Myself” for a scene of yes, you guessed it, Otis (Asa Butterfield) touching himself. But, the Sex Education season 2 soundtrack is wired because it found a way to switch the track and make it something truly iconic. That’s why every song on the new season of Netflix’s Sex Education will get you in the mood. To do what, you ask? Well, anything your little heart desires.

Ezra Furman Is Angry. Aren't You?

Jan 16, 2020

The white noise makes Ezra Furman’s airhorn of a new album Twelve Nudes intensely gratifying.

Galway Advertiser's Best Albums of 2019

Dec 19, 2019

6. Ezra Furman - Twelve Nudes (Bella Union )

A howl of rage at the state the world, and especially the USA, delivered in 28 minutes of furious punk, with a little glam rock on the side, but never is it hollow. As Furman declares on ‘Evening Prayer aka Justice’: “If you’ve got the taste for transcendence. Then translate your love into action. And participate in the fight now. For a creed, you can truly believe.” Amen to that!

The 50 best albums of 2019

Dec 19, 2019

7. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard — Infest The Rats’ Nest or Fishing for Fishies – Daniel J. Willis

There was a debate among our nominating committee which of the two albums King Gizzard released this year should go on the list. It wasn’t easy because they’re so wildly different. The first, April’s Fishing for Fishies, is a psychedelic rock throwback with bluesy undertones, reminiscent of the early ‘70s. The second, August’s Infest the Rats’ Nest, is a Metallica- and Motörhead-inspired thrash metal manifesto about environmentalism. Eventually we realized that if a band releases two albums worthy of consideration that aren’t even in the same genre, they had a good enough year to crack the top 10 with their combined effort.
