Mysterious Power is the follow up to 2008's critically acclaimed Inside the Human Body by Ezra Furman and the Harpoons. It was released on April 5, 2011. The album has been met with critical acclaim, with the Chicago Sun Times calling it "a joyous racket, a splintered confessional, an anxious thrill ride with the top down next to a fidgety poet who's crazy in love." [1] After appearing at South by Southwest in March, the band launched a U.S. headlining tour in support of the album.[2]
