I love Antony and the new EP is a nice way to hold fans over until the new record. I couldn't help but sense a religious thread running through it especially with My Lord, My Love and Pressing On. However that could just be because of placement.

From what I've read about it, Swanlights will be a stylistic departure from his past work, but from Thank You For Your Love, it doesn't sound that way. And I know judging a whole album on one track isn't fair, but TYFYL could have come from any of the Antony and the Johnsons albums. Gorgeous, yes. But not really what I was expecting.
