James Announce New Album 'Girl At The End Of The World'

Manchester legends James have announced they will release their 14th studio album titled 'Girl At The End Of The World', on 18th March through BMG Recordings.

The follow-up to last year's 'La Petite Mort', sees the band team with producer Max Dingel (The Killers, Muse, White Lies) with the legendary Brian Eno infusing his unique influence into the blend. The new album is both anthemic and euphoric, with it’s simmering electronica continuing James’ long connection to the dance floor.  The band’s trademark songwriting and Tim Booth’s distinctive vocal & evocative lyrics prove once again to be amongst Britain’s finest.

About he making of the record, Tim Booth says:

“Bands talk about that difficult second album but it’s the trickster 14th one that’s the real M*&^%R F&%$#R. As always with James it’s a collaborative process allowing ample room for improvisation, intuition, skill and dumb luck. From the outside our process looks like chaos but chaos is our friend and we have a history that gives us confidence that something magical will eventually appear. Most of my best lyrics are unconscious typos so don¹t ask me what it’s about; your projection is as good as mine. This was perhaps the most difficult and stressful album we have ever made. I hope you find it as rewarding as we do. OYSTER- GRIT-PEARL.”
