Jimmy Eat World - Integrity Blues (October 21, 2016) Album • Page 118

What the fuck happened in here?

I think they sent emails out to people who ordered the most limited variant saying they oversold it and were pressing more. Some people were talking about that in the thread around release week. With you it just sounds like they completely dropped the ball though.

 

Mine still says shipping soon, lame. Totally thought I only ordered the vinyl but I just checked my order and I guess I got a t shirt as well. Super happy about that.

 

I thought he was referring to Hyde Park?

The imagery in that song is absolutely stunning. That second verse is unbelievable.

Probably my favorite "domestic bliss" verse since Taylor Swift's "dancing round the kitchen in the refrigerator light" verse.

 

This is my favorite part of the album. Maybe my favorite verse he's ever written. Idk. But it's up there with the bridge of Carry You for sure

 

Do you lot think I should:

a. Order the turquoise Integrity Blues LP from KRM now

or

b. Take my chances and hope they have some on tour with them when I see them (FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!!!) in Dublin on Nov 7th?

In regards to the first option, there's also this nice-looking translucent blue Chase This Light LP that I can order through their US store... hmmm.

 

I'm curious to see how this "tar colored black vinyl" turns out. Wonder if it will look any different than standard black.

 

Wait, what's this and where can I get it? IDK anything about this.

 

I can't believe I'll be listening to this record tomorrow night. Going to the packer game and then coming home to jam this.

 

Seems unlikely. Haha

 

Jimmy Eat World - Integrity Blues (tar-colored black vinyl)

 

Probably. But we will find out soon.

 

If you had any respect at all for the band themselves or the people who do their press, you'd know that this is a fucking gross thing to say. The advances were probably watermarked - no-one in their right mind would leak one unless they wanted to catch hell from the band's label, risk losing their job and maybe even being sued for damages.

Jesus fucking Christ.

 

Do we know if this is going to be on the Japanese edition or not? Because having it as a pre-order incentive for people in the US only is bullshit of the highest order in 2016 tbh.

 

Can't get much better than a night game at Lambeau vs the Bears. Hopefully Rodgers remembered how to play QB since Sunday night.

 

haha i know right. i was telling my friend who i'm going with that i'm expecting either rodgers to be lights out and we win big, or we see a continuation from last week and the bears could potentially win. especially with knile davis as the only active rb and a still very depleted secondary. should be interesting! i'm way more invested in the cubs right now, but that isn't looking too great either.

 

You win the thread.

 

Prob going to the DC show, I've only seen them once
Super expensive though damn

 

12/3 Minneapolis (skyway)
12/14 DC (9:30)
12/16 Asbury Park (Stone Pony)
12/17 NYC (Webster Hall)

OH SHIT anyone else in for the NJ/NY shows? I'll be at both.

 

just saw them last week but seriously thinking of going to the minneapolis date. my wife and i were looking to go there for a weekend in december anyway to look at apartments (probs moving there next year).

 

See you guys in Asbury Park (and Philly when that inevitably gets announced for the 15th)

 

Argh, we need a Boston date!

 

The Stone Pony is gonna be sick. I've never seen them there, but the crowds are always great.

Way back in the day I had a magazine with the guys standing in front of the old abandoned construction site in Asbury on the cover. I think it was from Bamboozle 2005. Wish I still had it.

 

Fuuu, Minneapolis show! I'm so there!

 

I reviewed this for a different site, and my review's up now, for anyone interested:

‘Integrity Blues’ is The Best Jimmy Eat World Album in Nearly A Decade

 

I didn't get anything about that, just that they had a lot of orders and so mine wouldn't be shipping until the weekend after release rather than on or before release day. I just sent a follow-up email to see what's going on.
