When I spoke with Antony Hegarty a couple of months ago about his trip to Japan and completion of The Crying Light cycle, he mentioned his fourth album Swanlights, saying it would be packaged with a book of his drawings and writing. We have some additional info: You’ll be able to get the collection in regular form and as a special edition that packages the CD inside a 144-page art book with Antony’s paintings, collages, photography, and writing. The cover features one of those collages.

Swanlights is out 10/4 in the UK via Rough Trade and 10/5 in the US via Secretly Canadian. Abrams Image will publish the special edition.
