The highly anticipated full-length follow-up to I Am a Bird Now. Here, ANTONY shifts the thematic focus and explores his relationship with the natural world. The intimacy of the JOHNSONS' sound is enveloped by avant-classical composer NICO MUHLY's symphonic arrangements. The record's centerpiece, "Another World" traces the singer's despair in the face of a vanishing landscape. Antony and the Johnsons' music bridges the gap between avant-classical music and the blues, and the band's sold out performances have resulted in standing ovations from Carnegie Hall to the Apollo. The Crying Light is a soul-stirring new work with its daring compositions and captivating vocal performances. Antony and the Johnsons have created a subtle and timely work that brings a magical and yet changing world to the forefront of our consciousness.
