JAMES RETURN WITH ‘GIRL AT THE END OF THE WORLD’ FULL-LENGTH OUT MARCH 18th
OFFICIAL SINGLE βNOTHING BUT LOVEβ OUT NOW
One of the UKβs most creatively restless and loved artists, James, have announced today that they will be releasing their fourteenth studio album Girl At The End Of The World in North America on March 18th.
Already, two stellar singles have been revealed from this highly anticipated full-length; βTo My Surpriseβ dropped last month (watch the official video here) and most recently, the incredible βNothing But Love.β Both tracks are available now on Spotify, Amazon (CD, Vinyl & MP3) and on iTunes as part of a pre-order of Girl At The End Of The World from today.
Girl At The End Of The World sees the band team again with producer Max Dingel (The Killers, Muse, White Lies). The new album is both anthemic and euphoric, with itβs simmering electronica continuing Jamesβ long connection to the dance floor. The bandβs trademark songwriting and Tim Boothβs distinctive vocal & evocative lyrics prove once again to be amongst Britainβs finest.
The bandβs current single, βNothing But Loveβ is a rarity in the James canon β an unadorned love song featuring the refrain βnothing but love gives the world some meaning.β βLove songs tend to tread such a well-worn path that I avoid them unless I have something new to say or Iβm so blinded by emotion I canβt help myself.β Says singer and lyricist Tim Booth. βItβs about loveβs euphoria and ecstasy β that love-bomb that goes off and changes everything. But love is a high-stakes game, as something you love can also be lost.β He explains.
Like much of Girl At The End Of The World, the single was cut live in RAK Studio and it contains a touch of βEnoxificationβ from the bandβs former mentor Brian Eno, who has produced five James albums. ShortList Magazine (UK) have already proclaimed Nothing But Love “probably the most uplifting thing youβll hear this year.β
Known for their unique and diverse style over their 13 studio albums, James are both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, having sold over 12 million albums worldwide. The band originally signed to the iconic Factory Records in 1982, and have since gone onto produce a string of massive hit singles, including: Sit Down, Come Home, Sheβs A Star and Born of Frustration. Now, 32 years on they have come up with a record that the band consider their best ever.
