I don't think we have a thread for Antony yet, so I am making one! He has definitely become one of my favorites over the years. Here is some news:

Antony and the Johnsons will release their five track EP “Thank You For Your Love” on August 24th via Secretly Canadian. The title-track is the lead single from the forthcoming album “Swanlights” also being released by Rough Trade on October 11th and Secretly Canadian on October 12. The album is now available for pre-order including bundles consisting of the full length CD and EP, vinyl LP and EP, and book with CD and EP will be available for sale on August 4th. Those who purchase the bundles will instantly receive an advance download of the EP. The pre-order is up here.

Artwork for the EP features photographs Antony took when he first arrived in NYC as a teenager in the early 90’s.

1 - Thank You For Your Love
2 - You Are The Treasure
3 - My Lord My Love
4 - Pressing On
5 - Imagine I already preordered the LP so I have gave a listen to the EP the other day. I like most of it a lot. However, I am so not feeling the Imagine cover. I don't understand why he decided to cover it. There are enough covers of Imagine out there already.

Also- I love how they chose to release this EP. It kind of came of nowhere.
