Jimmy Eat World Band • Page 123

only song i don't completely fuck with on ctl is "electable". i even love "firefight", which most people seem to dislike.

 

picking the catchiest jimmy eat world song is like picking the heaviest isis song; good fucking luck pal

 

Electable and firefight are the two weakest tracks IMO. Would have rather seen Open Bar Reception take firefight's spot. Electable is fun and high energy enough to not be skippable.

 

Haha, yeah. Isis has several levels and flavors of heavy in their music. You think they're crushing it and then they blast into Mach 2 and break the sound barrier

 

i love this live video.

Sweetness would be another pick for catchiest JEW song

 

what about the heaviest jimmy eat world song

 

i wish there was a place for "be sensible" but there really isn't.

 

chase this light, to me, has zero weak tracks. i think it's by far their most consistent album front to back.

 

"futures"? thats a heavy riff its sick

 

Catchiest Jimmy Eat World song from what I've listened to goes to "Sweetness".

 

it's on the same level as futures as far as consistency goes.

 

yeah and BAs title track are both heavy

 

and aaron turner is still doing that shit with old man gloom and sumac. dude's a genius haha probably my favorite musician in metal

 

fucking love that riff. "nothingwrong" is fairly heavy.

 

It's incredible how huge that hook is, mother fucker could catch Jaws.

 

Nah the song after that (Just Tonight) and "NothingWrong" destroy

 

Yeah, I think that reminds me the most of the clip we heard ... (NW is a great song too.)

 

i think its more consistent than futures although obviously they're both about the same. i just think there's a bit of a dip in quality from drugs or me through nothing wrong, even if all three of those songs are very good they dont live up to the rest of the record. obviously this is highly debatable.

 

Cautioners couldve totally been on Clarity and made perfect sense

 

cautioners is the best song on BA

 

those are good but "futures" just kind of has this certain weight to it because its nice and mid tempo but still huge

 

He's fantastic and there's plenty of other good progressively-written metal on Hydra Head records.

I see Baroness on a similar plane of creativity, John Dyer Baizley is my favorite metal vocalist and their drummer is ridiculous. Also draws all their artwork himself, their vinyl prints are gorgeous.

 

i think those three songs are all super important in cementing the mood and theme of the record, and also do a great job of setting up "23".

 

Absolutely. That song is a sweater that SpongeBob made out of his tears to me

 

you're 100% right
