Check out the cover art of his new EP "Another World" that features a photograph of  butoh co-founder and Japanese dance legend Kazuo Ohno. The picture was taken by  by Pierre-Olivier Deschamps in 1984 at Paris Theatre du Chatelet. Ohno is known for his playful and grotesque imagery and butoh's white body makeup.

Antony and the Johnsons will release the "Another World" on October 7th on Secretly Canadian (and on October 6th on Rough Trade Records in the UK). This will be their first release since the Mercury Prize winning album "I am a Bird Now"  which became a critical and commercial sensation in 2005.

Pivotal track on this EP is the environmentally conscious title track, "Another World." A press release further outlines, "Antony's inimitable voice, mesmerizing piano and intimate arrangements punctuate the ideas on the EP. 'Shake that Devil' showcases his bluesy wail and its drone is soon replaced with a driving vintage R&B beat that illustrates the lyrics' ferocity."

In related Antony news, his duet with Bjork on "The Dull Flame Of Desire" will be released as a single with multiple remixes next month.
