The Crying Light
“On The Crying Light, Antony Hegarty remains fascinated with the transitions and overlaps between birth and life, life and death, this world and the next, but he expresses them in more universal, more direct, but no less rapturous terms than he did on his New York-tinted breakthrough I Am a Bird Now.”
I Am a Bird Now
“The 1974 photo of Andy Warhol superstar Candy Darling on the cover of Antony and the Johnsons' second full length, *I Am a Bird Now*, is the perfect complement to the ghostly hymnals that flit and sigh behind its black and white shadows. A melancholy but arrestingly beautiful image, it depicts Darling on her deathbed; bright flowers float behind her upturned arm like a cluster of soft, pale moons ”
Cut the World
“This live album, which boasts a new song in the form of the title track, draws from all of Antony's studio albums. The renditions of that back catalog are rendered so powerfully by the Danish National Chamber Orchestra that the originals seem almost incomplete by comparison.”
Another World - EP
“At first, this five-song EP sounds like a handful of deep cuts from Antony Hegarty's breakout LP I Am a Bird Now, but repeat listens quickly reveal a more varied and restrained effort whose bare-bones arrangements put the emphasis right where it should be-- on Antony's lush, quavering voice.”
Swanlights
“Antony's latest features another Oneohtrix Point Never collab, the Swanlights LP's title track, and new songs that may hint at future directions.”
Thank You for Your Love - EP
“Antony Hegarty returns with a teaser from his new album, covers of Bob Dylan and John Lennon, and two other originals.”
