JAMES have released 10 studio albums, sold more than 12 million albums worldwide, and have had twenty U.K. Top 40 singles. The U.K.-based band are best known in the U.S. for their Brian Eno-produced 1993 album Laid, which resulted in the huge modern rock hit singles "Laid". The Night Before takes James' knack for uplifting songs about insecurity, disaffection and mental illness to a new level, and The Morning After has an intuitive, low-key "campfire" feel featuring some of the saddest, darkest lyrics Tim Booth has ever come up with.
