Antony and the Johnsons - The Crying Light!

[PS: Return Of]

The follow up to I am a bird..... which was such an immense album. One of the best records ever made imo.

Have heard a few tracks from the Crying Light including this one

Yeah he released I am a bird around April 2005. Also my first time hearing them. I fell in love straight away

I am a Bird Now is one of my favourite albums ever, it's absolutely gorgeous. Cannot wait for this one I;m sure it will be a beauty.

I really love the stuff Antony has done with Hercules and Love Affair, more so that his own work, but I'll buy the album anyway and check it out.
He is playing in Vicar St in May.
My favourite Antony song is What Can I do? the one that Rufus Wainwright sings on.

Love this track from the album:

Her eyes are underneath the ground

The new album is all over the place. Be nice if he concentrated on new material rather than recycling old stuff.
