EMI Years 1973-1975, The - Jimmy Cliff

Advantages: Fantastically feelingful, occasionally loud yet often graceful. An increadibly well rounded album
Disadvantages: It's a move away from 'Clarity'.

...My View of 'Jimmy Eat World' / 'Bleed American I remember most of the good bands that I've listened to over the years: Their best songs ring a bell in my head, I might even know the lines from some of them, at least I might think I do after a few bevvys. But I can tell when I've hunted down that mythical beast; the GREAT band, because much like J.F.K.'s assassination or the 9.11 attacks I can remember exactly where I was when it happened. I'm sure that many of you will know what I'm talking about. I'll quickly tell you in the hopes that setting the scene will inspire you in some way to run out and get your hands on this incredible piece of musical history.

They started out small, releasing their first album in 1994 through Wooden Blue Records; it was aptly titled simply 'Jimmy Eat World'. Doesn't appear as though they were awfully creative in their early days then but there you go, they were shortly after snapped up by Capitol and in 1996 released their first album through them, 'Static Prevails'. 'Futures' was their fifth studio album and was released in the year 2004, it has to date sold over 607 000 copies in the U.S. alone and has therefore secured 'Gold' status.
