Jimmy Eat World - Surviving (October 18, 2019) Album • Page 36

was just listing first albums i personally do not listen to ever by bands i love. its cool if you listen to it

 

I’d disagree, just too many bangers on TAYF and too few to follow

What a weird trajectory they’ve had. Things progressed logically for the first 3 albums, then New Again was an off kilter turd, their self titled had a few bright spots, Happiness Is had even fewer, and by Tidal Wave they’d basically turned into a late-00’s Against Me

 

Or: There’s one good TBS album and it’s only ok.

 

and it's Tidal Wave

 

Am I in the wrong thread? Haha

 

I bought tickets to see JEW in Bloomington in November ahhhhhh so excited

 

Relistening to Integrity Blues for the first time in a while and realising that The End Is Beautiful was the best song on there after all. Probably wouldn't have been in my top five at the end of 2016.

 

Waiting is one of my fave Thursday albums.

 

the run from WYWTB thru New Again is GOAT, idgaf what anyone says. TAYF is so fucking overrated lol

 

TAYF is pretty fun, Set Phasers to Stun is the best song they ever made and then I don't really care about anything after that.

 

Had to bring these back because, while I think I've mentioned on here before that the chorus of Cautioners has an eerily similar melody to A Praise Chorus, I was listening last night and it hit me that they are literally two versions of the same song. Same key, nearly identical chord progressions across the entirety of both songs (intro, verse, chorus, bridge, outro), and the melodic similarities. I'm convinced the band decided to see how much they could get out of those ideas by going in two opposite directions.

 

Wow. I’ve never noticed this but it is so true.

 

Are we about to to do a Taking Back Sunday album ranking in a Jimmy Eat World album thread? Because that would be impressive.

 

I feel like I accidentally walked into the womens restroom but really there's just a group of drunk girls in the mens.

 

They briefly talked about how it’s the same chords on their dvd

 

Nothing will top the discussion about Nickelback in Integrity Blues thread.

 

Can they be my dads?

Jimmy Eat World tell us about conquering doubt for new album 'Surviving': "Your lesser self convinces you to let them have the keys" - NME

 

Yep. Great documentary too. Impressive to discover it on one's own though.

 

What even is this post?

 

Not a take I expected to see from you, but I like it.

 

I don’t have anything super productive to add to the discussion at hand right now but I’m listening to Cautioners rn bc of this convo and god this song fucking rules y’all lol. that song and My Sundown feel like the last remnants of the vibe of Clarity bleeding through and it brings me so much joy.

 

Cautioners has been my favorite song on bleed American for at least a decade now

 

In addition to that cautioners, authority song, my sundown is the best closing sequence in their discog

 

I think I'd give that one to IB
