Can someone remind me why Jimmy Eat World are so highly regarded in the punk scene? Is it because they helped "pioneer" emo? If that's the case, their status needs to be revoked, and reasons for this are twofold. First, their early material didn't do anything that Sunny Day Real Estate wasn't already doing. Second, what good came of...

Jimmy Eat World — Bleed American

in
By Hannah Guy (CHARTattack) July 24, 2001 10:58 am
Bleed American is Jimmy Eat World's fourth album and their first offering after a sticky divorce from their last major label. Touches of synth-pop are quietly slipped in amongst the thumping bass and guitar licks of "The Middle" and a greaser-style salute is directed to Jim Adkins' old-style, rock-the-socks-out-of-your-brogues guitar...

If we had an emo alert of some kind, it'd be going off right now. It it had a sound effect, it'd probably be like the red alert from Star Trek: Basically, this news is pretty heavy on the emo. We're actually wondering if anything could be more emo than this. War Child's just announced a special covers benefit concert in which bands will...

Jimmy Eat World — Invented

in
By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) September 30, 2010 1:48 pm
Remember back in 2001, when Jimmy Eat World seemed "edgy" because 9/11 happened and they were forced to change the title of their Bleed American album to a self-titled release? I know what you're thinking: how could emo ever possibly have been edgy? Well, at one point, it was all the rage, and dressing in black, sitting alone in a corner and...

Video Of The Day: Jimmy Eat World's "My Best Theory"

in
By CHARTattack Staff (CHARTattack) September 28, 2010 1:48 pm
Let's be completely honest here: Jimmy Eat World's video for Invented's "My Best Theory" would freak even Stanley Kubrick out. It looks like somebody took Eyes Wide Shut and crossed it with 2001: A Space Odyssey, Daft Punk and The L Word to make one hell of a weird, messed up nightmare from hell. Seriously, I don't even have dreams this nutso, and...
