    Track history

    "Crackagen" is nearly nine years old; the earliest accessible recording of "Crackagen" is from 2003, in a video recording of Antony's performance at the Oni Gallery in Boston. That video is available on Antony and the Johnsons' official discography.

    "Shake That Devil," previously known as "Shake That Dog," was performed often on Antony and the Johnsons' 2006-07 tour, with varying lyrics. The studio version features a downtempo intro to the song.

    "Another World," "Sing For Me," and "Hope Mountain" are entirely new.
