The Crying Light is the third studio album from Antony Hegarty and his band, there are a couple of things here, first, his
voice, which is probably one of the most unique and easily recognized of this generation. The second are the lyrics and music
in the record. While seemingly sparse and minimalistic, the orchestral backings and piano are really subtle or perhaps
overshadowed by Antony's rich tones. But they are intricate nonetheless, in 'One Dove' the singing stops for almost a minute
as strings and the woodwind take over. Conversely, 'Dust and Water' has almost no music at all, just a few notes stretched
over 2:50, while Hegarty murmurs the lyrics tenderly over the expanse, like a seagull flying over a calm sea endlessly.
The songs are often sad ballads,the lyrics themselves are nearly mournful yet hauntingly beautiful, from 'Epilepsy is
Dancing' - "Then I cried in the kitchen/How I'd seen your ghost witching/As a soldering Blue Line/Between my eyes" or just
simply obscure "Fire kisses the floor/of the lakes and makes shadows" from 'Daylight and the Sun' . Classical composer Nico
Muhly co-arranged the final track 'Everglade', the most dramatic piece of the album. Here the orchestra finally gets let
loose, with crescendos of horns and strings seemingly taken from a lost symphony or soundtrack to a art film.
