Jimmy Eat World - Integrity Blues (October 21, 2016) Album • Page 145

Enemy does not fit on this, swapping it for Through is the best decision of all time.

 

Wait. People are hearing My Enemy now?

 

"Drugs or Me", "Nothingwrong" and "Night Drive". I just cannot connect with these three songs. I really have tried. I wish I could enjoy them like everyone else seems to.

I remember when I was younger I would just stop the album after "Pain" but after giving the second half of the album a chance I have since seen the error of my ways with "Polaris" and "23". Those two songs I do love.

 

This is already in my top 5 after 6 listens or so.

 

After a few listens all I can think of is MORE SONGS LIKE PASS THE BABY PLEASE

 

Alright. I found My Enemy. I like it. I don't know that I love it. Either way, it could fit on the album if they just bumped it to 12 tracks, but I'm not sure where they could place it. I think the darker/fierce vibes of the album might overstay its welcome if you add it.

 

Make sure you've heard SOMST for sure.

 

So Pass the Baby is up there with If I Believe You, right?

 

eeeeeeeee so excited to dive into this!

The Yellowcard one you guys did a few weeks back was incredible

 

Thanks so much for listening!

 

Looking at the setlist I have from the solo Jim shows and apparently I heard Get Right and Integrity Blues in July 2015 but had no idea what they were, haha.

I didn't get the leak, so I'm a bit behind, but I just want to echo the sentiments about this album.

Pass the Baby is a game-changer.

 

About to give this a first listen pretty excited

 

Listening to this before the album hits Spotify. So, so excited.

 

It's out on streaming services!!

 

You With Me is fantastic!

 

Wait, so what happened to that heavy song clip we heard in that first teaser?

 

Its Pass the Baby

 

I would not mind JEW working with the same producer in the future. This album is on point.

 

Every three years, like clockwork, this beautiful, magnificent band just shows up, drops an atomic bomb on the music industry, and then tours like hell before getting ready to do it all again. I love this record. I love it so, so much. But now we begin another long, dark national nightmare while waiting for the next three years.

 

It's all been happening like they said it might
Am I weak if I want to fight?

Sing it Jim

 

AV Club just called Damage a "synthy effort."

 

There weren't any versions released with that track on it. A lot of places said it was on the original vinyl copy but that was false. It was only ever released on the acetate promo (not the regular promo which the track had been removed for) in CD form. The scene release with Jen on it was taken from that acetate promo and was a transcode that got nuked. That's why there was 2 scene releases for the album at the time.

Jim said on the official forum years ago that it wasn't removed because it sucked but because it sounded heavily like the "Men Without Hats" song "Pop Goes The World". I really hope someday they decide to release it in some form, maybe on a rare and unreleased compilation album along with Big Cars (and the other Trombino Futures demos).

For those that want to hear the resemblance, check it out:

 

I just cannot stop listening to It Matters. Incredibly too relevant to my life right now
