With this project, he reaches into new territory that extends, but doesn\’t break from, MMJ\’s accomplishments. Until now, James had never felt the call to create a longer-form album on his own. \”I’m very lucky to play in a band with guys that I love, who are great at what they do,\” he says, \”so on MMJ records, I don’t have a need to play bass or keys or what have you. But as a person and as a musician, I love to play every instrument under the sun, and I wanted to make a record where I played all the instruments and produced/engineered it myself.\” The results are nine songs that resist easy categorization, from the hazy space-funk of the opening \”State of the Art (A.E.I.O.U.)\” to the chiming, operatic pop of \”A New Life.\” On Regions of Light and Sound of God, nothing is what it seems—touchstones from old-school R&B or island folk or hip-hop flicker into focus and then disappear; a delicate instrumental is titled \”Exploding.\” It\’s complex but cohesive, intimate and hypnotic where My Morning Jacket might turn more wide-screen and epic. For Regions of Light and Sound of God, there was one specific source that shaped many of the songs, and even figures into the album title—a pioneering 1929 graphic novel called God’s Man, by Lynd Ward. Told entirely through wordless woodcuts, the book chronicles an artist’s struggle with temptation and corruption, along with finding true love. As work on the album proceeded, James was inspired to write music that could accompany the book. “God\’s Man came to me at a very important time,” he says. “Some of the things happening in the book were happening to me in real life, in a very strange and painful, then a very beautiful way.” Solo albums by members of bands, especially lead singers, can often be scattershot, collections of odds and ends built up over the years with no true sense of purpose. But Regions of Light and Sound of God is precisely the opposite—the clarity with which Jim James came into this album rings from first note to last. “The album knew what it wanted to be,” says James. “The songs would tell me what they wanted to be, and I just had to search around and find those sounds to bring them into this world.” Artist Jim James Genre Rock And Pop Label V2/Cooperative Buying Options 1LP Includes CD Format 1LP , Includes CD Condition New Country UK Track Listings 1.
