More Feathers from a Beautiful Bird
I must say that Antony has not yet ceased to amaze me. This, his second EP since the release of his sublime sophomore album "I Am A Bird Now," continues to prove -and probe- the depth and sensitivity of Antony's songwriting.
As it was the case with his prior EP, "TheLake," the new, unreleased songs are as good if not better, in some cases, than the material featured from the above-mentioned full length album.
"Songs like "The Lake," in the earlier EP, or these NON-LP B-sides -"Frankenstein" and "Just One Star"- in this one seemed to have taken his lyricisn further, yet stripping it of the dramatic vein common in his songs.
They are indeed moving and vulnerable pieces, managing a certain kind of intimacy born of his intent to connect with you, artist to listener, person to person.
This is also profoundly clear when it comes to visual imagery. Included is the video of "I Hope Thre's Someone," a great song in its own right, which also manages to evoke the type of tenderness and loss and doubt -so present in Antony's lyrics- with very simple yet powerful images.
All in all, a wondrous gift, with plenty to explore and embrace. Quite remarkable a feat for three songs and a video.

judging anthony
Unlike the last reviewer I am a semi-detached fan of "Anthony". I came across him by accident performing in a Leonard Cohen tribute concert. His voice and manner attracted and intrigued me enough to follow him up. He's gold alright. Redolent of Jeff Buckley a la hallelujah and not much else (maybe Buckley pere's song to the siren).
anyway, get it, enjoy it
