Today Pitchfork premiered the video for "Cut The World," the title track off Antony and the Johnsons ' upcoming live symphonic album. Originally written for the theatre production "The Life And Death of Marina Abramovic," "Cut The World" now gets the music video treatment courtesy of director NABIL (Kanye West, Bon Iver, Frank Ocean). This dark, rather literal interpretation of the song title features chilling performances from a murderous Carice Van Houten (Game Of Thrones) and an unsuspecting Willem Dafoe. Be warned: it's a tad NSFW. Cut The World [...]

Antony and the Johnsons have released a stunning new video for the title track of the new album CUT THE WORLD. The cinematic short stars Willem Dafoe (the Spider-Man trilogy, The Last Temptation of Christ) and Carice Van Houten ("Game of Thrones," Valkyrie) as well as performance artist Marina Abramović. In it, a subtle shift in nature prompts a startling chain of events. The album, CUT THE WORLD, is a collection of live symphonic performances of songs from the band's 4 full length albums (SWANLIGHTS, THE CRYING LIGHT, I AM A BIRD NOW, S/T). Recorded in Copenhagen, [...]

This morning, we woke up to this haunting video for the previously unreleased title track from Antony and the Johnsons' new live album, which drops tomorrow, and we have to admit, we were a little scared to come into the office afterwards. The song, originally written for The Life and Death of Marina Abramović , Antony Hegarty's operatic biography of the Serbian-born artist, is full of Hegarty's trademark lilting vocals and heartbreakingly beautiful chord progressions. The NABIL -directed video, which will screen on August 11 at the Southbank Centre in London as part of the  Meltdown Festival [...]

É possível, para o diretor de um clipe, ser completamente misterioso mesmo sendo extremamente literal em sua abordagem na tradução de uma música? Sim, essa é a lição ensinada por Nabil , diretor do novo clipe de Antony Hegarty e seus Johnsons , e Marina Abramovich , lendária artista performática. Cut The World ganhou um dos mais bem feitos clipes de todo o ano de 2012, dos seus créditos iniciais até os créditos finais. A direção é digna de tapete vermelho, assim como seu elenco, que conta com Willem "Duende Verde" [...]

We've all heard of Bosses Day, you know, the day that we celebrate the person that makes our life less enjoyable than it would be otherwise. But have you heard of Kill Your Boss Day? Well that seems to be the theme for Antony and The Johnsons' new video for "Cut The World", the title track from Haggerty's live album which was recorded at DK Concert Hall in Copenhagen, Denmark in September of last year. The video stars Carice Van Houten and Willem Dafoe with Houton playing the role as the secretary and Dafoe as the "about to receive a [...]

This week sees the release of Antony And The Johnsons ' new live album Cut The World , and today Pitchfork premiered a new song and video from it for the album's title track. Directed by NABIL and featuring Willem Dafoe and Carice van Houten, it's a deeply dark video that's had me watching it five times in a row, it's so harrowing and affecting, and the music probably wouldn't fit any other video made for it. Cut The [...]

A live album isn't always necessarily too much of an event - a gift for fans, to be sure, but they rarely make the impact of a full-fledged LP. Antony and the Johnsons aren't the type to simply put out any old project, however. Their new live album, Cut the World , boasts an original title track. They didn't stop there. This music video for the song features, in a moment of absurdly epic proportions, both Willem Dafoe and Carice van Houten, known for brutally killing Nazis in Paul Verhoeven's Black Book , clumsily hiding from [...]

The title track from the prolific and consistent artist's career encompassing live album, which sounds pretty excellent . Some easily recognizable faces in this one...
