Jimmy Eat World Band • Page 655

Wow lol.
Different strokes for different folks.
Never been into Delivery.

 

a while ago there was a resolution in Holliston, MA that had the people in the town divided, and one side made these signs -->



which cracked me up every time I saw them

 

lol

 

still maintain half heart was good enough to be the centrepiece of that whole album, they did it so dirty

 

also, whenever I listen to this album on Amazon Music, "All The Way (Stay)" & "Love Never" are significantly louder than the other 8 songs - I don't mean just a little bit either, it's crazy how much louder they are

 

Also, finished the Bandsplain episode. Really fun stuff, and definitely got me diving down a Clarity rabbit hole. I think I'd have been totally satisfied if they'd done another 15 minutes on Futures and then wrapped with a few minutes on Chase This Light. I disagree that the arc of the band was basically done after Bleed American. I think there was a very real possibility that Jimmy Eat World could've become a one-hit wonder after "The Middle." Songs like "Pain," "Work," and "Big Casino" getting radio play solidified them as a career band and are an important reason why they're still around, IMO.

 

Delivery is one of the great Jimmy Eat World songs. Smh

 

The song has just never delivered for me.

 

perhaps you didn't request it patiently enough

 

yes but do you agree that there are some good songs on inverted?

 

Idk why we’re even talking about this, phaynes already explained to us that no one outside of this website calls it Invented

 

Hey, at least she didn't call Damage Damages.

 

I’ve rarely been more offended by a review than when this one said Damage was full of “synth-y experiments.”

Jimmy Eat World doubles down on the familiar with Integrity Blues, and it works

 

I use “Love Never” lyrics as a marriage and family therapist with my clients all the time. Truly profound stuff in that track

“[Love’s] gonna feel so hard until you want the work more than the reward”

Goes apeshit

 

555 is a great part of that whole album. I would not want it removed.

 

Absolutely, Half Heart in place of (just spitballing here) Recommit would have elevated this album further. It still holds up super well.

Forever bitter we were cheated out of the title track sticking around, especially as set opener. Crazy energy and a song that truly soars like their best work does.

 

Criminal Energy should have been album opener and I dont like the title track all that much.

*ducks and leaves thread*

 

i like invented lol what a weird post

 

y'all have to do a better job at being funny if you aren't going to be smart

 

Title track is one of my favorites. Lyrics are top-tier Adkins.

 

Oh gosh how embarrassing. You see it was a reference to the people on the podcast doing a deep dive on Jimmy Eat World calling Invented “Inverted” and you explaining to us ding dongs that no one outside of this website knows or cares about anything this band did after Futures.
