Antony and the Johnsons Return

Plus bits on The Smiths and Black Sabbath

Antony and the Johnsons, who won the Mercury Music Prize back in 2005 with 'I'm a Bird Now', is to return next month with a brand new EP called 'Another World', five new tracks called 'Another World', 'Crackagen', 'Shake That Devil', 'Sing For Me' and 'Hope Mountain' will hit the shops on October.

A third studio album called 'The Crying Light' is due for release in January 2009.

Smiths Title Change

It appears the forthcoming 'best-of' from The Smiths will be called 'The Sound of the Smiths' and not 'Hang The DJ' as first revealed. However, the album is definitely happening and it will be in the shops on November 3 with the same track listing.

More Paranoia

Black Sabbath are to release their classic 'Paranoid' album again following a makeover back in February. The new package will have 3 discs with 43 tracks and it will be released on October 13.

Paranoid was Black Sabbath's only UK chart topping album back in September 1970
