“An eclectic and poignant offering from one of the UK’s most seminal bands …” CLASH ****

“An album that thrums with a sense of urgency, both timely and slightly remarkable for a band entering its 40^th year …” UNCUT

“Both an album for today and a testimony to their formative drive …” RECORD COLLECTOR ****

“There isn’t a weak track amongst the set; with 39 years’ experience behind them, their 16^th album can easily be ranked as one of their best …” LOUDER THAN WAR

“With their 40^th anniversary looming, they’re at a late-period peak; the most moving writing of their career …” MOJO ****

“James can make you laugh, dance and punch the air as well as weep; there is intelligence at work here and enough pleasure that on first hearing you barely notice Tim Booth’s heartfelt bombardment of agitprop …” DAILY MIRROR

ALL THE COLOURS OF YOU was recorded in part before Covid struck, and is produced by the Grammy award winning Jacknife Lee (U2, REM, Taylor Swift, Snow Patrol, The Killers). On production duties with JAMES for the first time, he brought a fresh approach to their sound, working remotely from his studio liaising with Tim Booth (his Topanga Canyon neighbour) and Jim Glennie from the band, reimagining their demos and capturing the band in all their virtual glory. The result is a record with the freshest and most arena-ready tracks of their 39-year career; the sound of one of Britain’s best bands deconstructed and reassembled by one of the world’s most renowned producers.
