James are back to their anthemic indie best with the new single “Is This Love”. It is the first track to be issued from their upcoming new studio album, their 18th, ‘Yummy’ which arrives on 12th April. Musically, lyrically and vocally the band is firing on all cylinders. How could you not love lyrics like “Love is a bomb, a Tsunami that rolls over our life as we cling to the wreckage of our peace of mind”. Tim Booth proves that he really is a master of his craft and will not settle for the easy route and simply rehash “Sit Down” again and again, even after more than 40 years at the helm of one of the UK’s finest bands. James are most definitely still very fresh and I suspect will never have a sell-by date! They will be supporting the album with a UK tour in June this year. They will be supported by Razorlight.
