Antony and the Johnsons to release new album and book

A new album from Antony and the Johnsons might  be news enough, but when the band release Swanlights on October 5, they're going to be doing it a little bit of a different way. The new record will have a special version put out by Abrams Image which will come with a special 144 page book with Antony's. paintings, collages, photography and writing. They aren't the first band to put together such an ambitious project, but it is sure to be a great collectible.
