Another World
New - LP - SC 193
Sealed 2008 Five-Track Vinyl EP. “The 2005 Mercury Award-Winning I Am A Bird Now Launched Avant-Garde/Cabaret/Chamber Pop King/Queen Antony Into The Near Mainstream With Its Lush And Heavily Orchestrated Outsider Torch Songs. Three Years Later, Fresh From Projects With Björk, Todd Haynes, And Charles Atlas, Antony And The Johnsons Return With Another World, A Five-Song Teaser EP For The Group's Forthcoming Crying Light Album. As Usual, Antony's Gorgeous, Mournful Voice Is The Centerpiece, Especially On The EP's Namesake, A Sparse, Piano-Led Ballad That Finds The Singer Spilling A List Of His "Favorite Things" That He'll Regret Not Being Able To Take With Him Into The Next Life. From There It's A Typical "Kitchen Sink" EP, Stocked With Enough Stabs At Bawdy Blue Rave-Ups ("Shake That Devil"), Oddball Narratives ("Hope Mountain"), And Plaintive Reveries ("Crackagen" And "Sing For Me") To Tide Fans Over Until The Headliner Arrives.” - James Christopher Monger.

I Am A Bird Now
New - LP - ASEC 105
Sealed 2005 Original With Plastic Album Hype Sticker On The Shrink Wrap. “Antony And The Johnsons' Second Full-Length Recording, The Haunting And Affecting I Am A Bird Now, Is A Far More Intimate Affair Than Their Debut. Antony's Bluesy Parlor Room Cadence Is More Upfront Here, Resulting In A Listening Experience That's Both Exhilarating And Disquieting. "Hope There's Someone" Is A Somber Opener, And Its Plea For Companionship, Augmented By A Sparse Piano/Vocal Arrangement That Rises Into The Air By Song's End In A Swirl Of Multi-Tracked Harmonies, Is Ultimately Uplifting. This Formula Is Applied To Much Of The Record And Never Ceases To Elicit Honest Emotion From Either Antony Or His Numerous Guests. Rufus Wainwright Takes The Lead On "What Can I Do?," A Languid Meditation On Death That Conjures Up Images Of Rainy Streets, Lonely Lampposts, And Cigar Smoke — It's Brief (Under Two Minutes) But Alluring Like The Cover Of A Raymond Chandler Novel. Boy George Joins Antony For A Duet On The Soulful And Empowering "You Are My Sister," Devendra Banhart Lends His Warbly Tenor To The Lush "Spiraling," And Lou Reed Plays Noodly Guitar And Recites An Anonymous Poem On The Mischievous "Fistful Of Love." It's A Testament To Antony's Skill As A Writer And Arranger That These Guest Appearances Are Completely Devoid Of Pretense, And While Each Artist Is Reverent To The Source Material, It's Still Antony's Show, As The Most Powerful Moments On I Am A Bird Now Are His.” - James Christopher Monger.
