James released its 13th studio album, Le Petite Mort, in the U.K./Europe in June and the album will finally be released in North America on September 16th. The album title translates to "the little death" and as one might expect, the subject of death is the theme of the record. Leader Tim Booth wrote the album after suffering the death of his mother, as well as the death of another close friend. Though the album deals with loss, it doesn't do so in a morbid, dark, or depressing way, instead it's a  not a morbid or dark/depressing album.

Le Petite Mort is available to pre-order in North America through iTunes and Amazon (obviously fans who can't wait can purchase the import version of the album, though it costs a few dollars more as an import).

Stream highlights from a recent live session with James below -- it includes a few short interview segments plus the performance of six songs (old and new).  The session is also available to download for free here for a limited time:
