Antony and the Johnsons – Another World Posted on January 5th, 2009 by Rich Belize

It’s been 3 long years since Antony and his Johnsons birthed their first breakout album, I Am a Bird Now, but do not give up hope weary listener: help is on the way! On January 20th, the unique and unmistakable Antony Hegarty will release his official follow up (and 3rd full length overall), The Crying Light. Said to be inspired by ‘his relationship with the elemental and natural world’, the much awaited record should be a contender for best of 09 honors come December. It also has a hauntingly scary cover (see above).
No sample mp3s from the Crying Light have been released so in the meantime I’ve attached the title track from Antony’s 2008 EP Another World. I highly recommend this release as it is not only a great holdover for fans but it features some great songs. Most notably the track ‘Shake That Devil‘ which is AMAZING. Trust me, it’s amazing.
AMAZING.
