About this deal

This is about finding a way to represent our collective spirit,” says James frontman Tim Booth, discussing the band’s curious new figurehead. English Beefcake" stars a man who ends relationships, while being hesitant in causing pain as a result of them. ChartAttack wrote that fans of the band's earlier hits, such as "Sit Down" and "Laid", would be "disappointed with this disc," however, "longtime James fans should find much to enjoy. Most of the finished album was made up from live takes and demos that were made before recording with Eno. Playlouder's Sarah Bee considered it a "more low-key" affair that was "less brash" than Millionaires.

Eno likened the process to when artists make their debut record: "they're full of enthusiasm and excitement and they know what they're doing and it's a pleasure. Two versions were released on CD: one with "Make It Alright" and "So Swell", and the other with "Stand" and a live version of "The Shining". It was originally titled We Want Our Money Back, [5] before being re-titled Space, [15] and eventually Pleased to Meet You.At the end of November, the band played a few shows in Spain and Portugal, [36] leading up to a UK tour in December. House in the Woods studios; producer credit was split between Brian Eno, guitarist/violinist Saul Davies, KK and the band. Getting Away with It (All Messed Up)" was released as a single on 25 June, [29] after being delayed a week from its original release date.

A year after its release, it occurred to Booth that the song was about his son, whose middle name was Daniel, and his goddaughter Grace. In a review for The Guardian, Caroline Sullivan wrote that the band "continue their run of mini-symphonies by and for men who don't cringe at terms such as 'birthing partner'. Space" begins as a Radiohead-esque track with an electro intro before shifting into chorus sections in the vein of Simple Minds.Fine" is a percussion-led song that is followed by "Getting Away with It (All Messed Up)", a slow-building indie rock track with a psychedelic bridge section.
