« Antony and the Johnsons have emerged with a new album, « The Crying Light » which will be released January 21st 2009. « Another World » is the first single, and it will be released as part of the five-song Another World EP which is being released on October 7th.
On « Another World », Antony sings of a disappearing world. The EP also includes « Shake That Devil ». Part exorcism and part Shangri La, Antony calls out shape-shifting perpetrators and banishes them one by one. Two other songs, « Crackagen » and « Sing For Me » are pastoral and surreal. Finally the epic « Hope Mountain » closes the EP, an episodic narrative set after a flood; people gather on a mountain to witness the emergence of a luminous girl. »

till then here is a video of Antony & Lou Reed singing together « Candy Says ».
