Girl at the End of the World is the 14th studio album by British alternative rock band James, released in March 2016. It features twelve tracks and was released on CD, vinyl, cassette and as an MP3 download.

The album came close to knocking Adele's album 25 (2015) off the top of the UK Albums Chart, reaching number one in the midweek charts in its first week of release, 2,000 sales ahead of Adele's album.[5] At the end of its first full week of release the album debuted at number 2, therefore just narrowly missing out on becoming the band's first studio album to reach number one.[6] Nonetheless, it was an unexpected chart return for the album and marked their highest chatting album since 1999s Millionaires.
