Jimmy Eat World - Futures
For all the theiving little pirates out there (myself included) an advanced copy of Jimmy Eat World - Futures is now available. Has anybody else heard it yet? Thoughts?
First off I have to say it isn't what I really expected. That's not a complaint at all, it just surprised me. Bleed American was a little bit more upbeat and I guess "harder" than their previous albums. I assumed the new one would follow more in that direction, however it seems to have gone back slightly to their previous style. I like either style just fine, so it's not a disappointment, just a surprise. It seems to be a pretty good album, I don't have a problem listening to it all the way though. My only complaint is that it seems to have a little too much of the same style, the songs seem to blend together a bit about 3/4 of the way through the album. I'd give it a 3/5.

A lot of people are describing it as Bleed American meets Clarity. It sounds much more like Clarity to me, just not as good. That's probably just because I haven't listened to this one as much yet.

I won't bother downloading it but I will probably pick it up when it comes out.

It's one of the ones that I'll actually pay for when it comes out. I've been anticipating it for a while and couldn't pass up the chance to hear it asap.

It's worlds better than Bleed American but no where near Clarity.

I've heard 3 songs off it, 2 were good, 1 was so-so.

Bleed American is terrible, kinda. Futures is way better, but not nearly as good as Clarity.

Thanks for the tip-off. I shall now go and steal.
Did anyone get that Firestarter promo? It was just rehashed versions of old/rare songs. Damn, did I feel ripped off |
