LP repress! Mr. Antony is an extraordinary figure. An opulent work with plenty of piano, strings, and above all, an exalted, well-trained voice reminiscent somewhere between Marc Almond (Soft Cell) in his later solo period and Bobby Coon. Art music with extremely emotional depth and exceptional guests: Lou Reed (whom he also accompanies on his tours), Devendra Banhart, and Boy George. Art music between pop and cabaret, bedroom and opera stage. Music—without being directly comparable—that reminds me of Bobby Coon as much as Klaus Nomi. Among Antony's admirers is Laurie Anderson, who described the exceptional singer thus: "He sings two words, and your heart is broken! His singing is the most exquisite thing you will ever hear!"LP repress! Mr. Antony is an extraordinary figure.
