Review: EvenTheStars.co.uk

“The encore might be one of the worst kept secrets of the night as a curtain is pulled back to reveal the Love Music Community Choir who recently posted a video of How Hard The Day from Living In Extraordinary Times online and were invited by the band to perform with them. It’s How Hard The Day that starts the encore, the song lifted in the chorus by several dozen voices that transform the impact of the song’s chorus.”

Review: EvenTheStars.co.uk

“You could hear a pin drop. I’ve never been to a James gig that has stunned the audience in to silence. This was it.

In many, many James gigs I’ve never seen him [Tim] breakdown and unable to finish a line. He did tonight. Clearly the stripped back acoustic set allows him to reach deep inside.

In these moments of public but personal soul searching it’s great to see how tight and connected the band members are these days. There is lots of eye contact and support as they adapt to allow Tim to recompose. The final line of ‘See you next time’ leaves the audience raw and stunned as the band leave the stage. It was a jaw dropping set.”

Review: EvenTheStars.co.uk

“Waltzing Along (and later Say Something) may get huge roars of recognition, you sense the band have to push themselves right to the limits to give these songs the same adrenaline rush as their belligerent younger cousins. Picture Of This Place confirms that thought, Tim right on the edge of the stage channeling his energy outwards and being met by a huge wave coming back at him, particularly where the song stops dead and then explodes back into glorious life before Andy joins him for the “root toot toot toot” ending. Even those around us who’d said they knew little of the new record lose themselves in it.”

Review: Jamie MacMillan at GigList.com

“‘Heads’ transforms this cavern into a full-on rave, the incredible trance-like middle section transcending the usual parameters of what a band of this longevity can do – before merging into ‘Stutter’ for an astonishing tribalistic meltdown, with the combination of three drummers and the duo of Adrian Oxaal and Saul Davies on guitars driving it to a ferocious crescendo. That dazzling musicianship from the rest of James is the perfect match for Booth who, whether it is taking long journeys through the crowd and over seats, or by crowd surfing halfway through the hall, proves impossible to tear the eyes away from.”

Review: EvenTheStars.co.uk

“Stutter, a song written back in 1982, doesn’t feel out of place amongst all these songs that came three and a half decades later, the same kinetic energy radiates from its core, the percussion acting as a centrifugal force and the lights not allowing the audience’s attention to wander from what’s going on up on stage.”

Review: EvenTheStars.co.uk

“If you’ve got time constraints on your set the rules say you probably shouldn’t take your fourth song and stretch and twist and turn it in so many directions that you take up quarter of an hour of the set, but Sound was so good they could have played it to the curfew and never stopped exploring new avenues with it. The way they interact when they’re in this rich vein of creativity is what makes them stand out from the crowd.

James had come, seen and conquered, a band at the very top of their game, armed with a new record that they have absolute faith in and backed by an army of fans who connect to the spirit, fuel and are fueled by the passion and soak in the energy and then send it back amplified like the most kinetic of relationships.”
