CURRENT OBSESSION

Antony and the Johnsons - Aeon

Just try to watch this video and not get completely sucked in. I dare you!

I'm totally obsessed. Who's with me? Antony and the Johnsons' new album The Crying Light is really, really good. Antony's voice would have been enough for me to love it but his songwriting puts it over the edge. It incorporates melodies and cadences that seem to be inspired by the "classical" art song tradition and still manages to sound of the minute.
