Antony and the Johnsons EP Coming This Month Ahead of New Album
. The title-track is the lead single from the forthcoming album "Swanlights" also being released by Secretly Canadian on October 12. On "Thank You For Your Love", Antony expresses a soul-infused cry of gratitude, but the song progresses into urgency, leaving behind the 4/4 rhythms and breaking into an emotional gallop that reveals an underlying pathos. "You Are The Treasure" is the calm after the storm, "My Lord My Love" closes the A side as a song for a lost childhood. The B side features two unusual covers accompanied by Kevin Barker on Acoustic Guitar, the first is Bob Dylan's "Pressing On", Antony's take is sweet, upbeat and beautiful. "Imagine" collaboration with avant-garde ambient composer William Basinski is a foreboding take on John Lennon's hallowed song. Artwork for the EP features photographs Antony took when he first arrived in NYC as a teenager in the early 90's. Antony and the Johnsons will also release their new album, "Swanlights", on October 12th in the US via Secretly Canadian. Abrams Image will simultaneously release a special edition of "Swanlights" which will include the CD inside a 144-page hard cover book containing Antony's paintings, collages, photography and writing. The album only version of "Swanlights" on Secretly Canadian will also include the song "Fl�tta", a duet with Bj�rk. The album and book are a continuation of Antony's work exploring his connection to the natural world.
