Artist: Antony and the Johnsons

Nabil Elderkin , known for his work for Frank Ocean, Bon Iver and Kanye West, has directed a stunning video for Antony and the Johnsons ' Cut The World , the title track of Antony's new career-spanning live album. Cut The World was originally written for the opera The Life and Death of Marina Abramović (in which Antony performs as well) and is the first studio version of any of the songs written for the opera to surface (hopefully the first of many). Along Marina Abramović, actor Willem Dafoe and actress Carice van Houten appear in [...]

Starring Willem Dafoe , Marina Abramović , and Carice van Houten.

The title track from Antony's new, live and symphonic release Cut The World is a previously unreleased track coming from the stage show The Life and Death of Marina Abramović . Fittingly, the famed performance artist brings her iconic mug to this stark, chilling, short filmic Nabil-directed clip's conclusion, but not before Carice Van Houten (of Game Of Thrones ) and Willem Dafoe (of Game Of Cheekbones ) work their way through a little secretary/boss disagreement. That is, Willem's character seems to feel he is entitled to keep living, while Carice takes the opposite position. [...]

Antony & The Johnsons : Cut the World - Video

Antony and the Johnsons vuelven con un vídeo no apto para todos los públicos, y cargadito de caras conocidas.

Willem Dafoe, Marina Abramović, and Carice van Houten star in the visuals for Antony and the Johnsons' new video which is set in a cut throat world. "Cut The World" is the title track from Antony and the Johnsons new album which is available now on iTunes UK & iTunes US . Video directed by Nabil.

Antony Hegarty commands a flawless trill that is easily one of the most compelling voices in contemporary music, and it lends itself well to the kind of theatrical storytelling that Antony and the Johnsons have become known for. Cut the World, Hegarty and his collaborators' newest release, is a collection of live, symphonic performances of songs from four full-length albums, and the full-bodied rendering fits the material perfectly. With help from the Danish National Chamber Orchestra, Hegarty bridges the gap, in some small way, between artist and listener, cutting out the middleman of the recording [...]

Antony and the Johnsons' first full-length live recording reaffirms that their music truly is a healing agent. Antony and the Johnsons kind of fell on to this Earth almost serendipitously. I remember a small club show in Toronto back in the early 2000s just before their debut was re-released in 2004 and way before their follow-up I Am a Bird Now garnered some serious indie attention. Ill-prepared, I was witness to a shaking of my very core from this 6' 4" transgender creation as he wavered in such beautiful operatic precision about...

The last couple of weeks have been a pretty dire time for album releases, but happily, there's respite to be had in August — there's a fair selection of worthwhile records due out over the next four weeks, and as ever, we've pored over the release schedules to bring you our selection of the 10 best, along with a quick roundup of other notable upcoming releases. There's an eclectic selection to be found after the jump: everything from cerebral piano-led ambience to neo-dreampop and the return of Ariel Pink — and at least one genuine album of the year contender.

auf »cut the world« werden songs der bisherigen vier antony and the johnsons-alben in bombastischen orchesterversionen neu interpretiert. antony hegarty setzt auch hier wieder auf das ganz große drama: steinerweichender gesang, abenteuerliche streicherarrangements, spoken word; das alles ist großartig gemacht, geradezu meisterlich, und es polarisiert natürlich: wenn man nicht in einer ganz bestimmten stimmung ist, kann so viel pathos ganz schön auf die nerven gehen...

Bu sene en çok izlemek istediğim konserlerden biriydi Harbiye Açıkhava'da yapılan Antony konseri. Zamansızlık nedeniyle kaçırdım o büyülü geceyi.
