    Various retailers have had a new album from Jimmy Eat World pop-up called Surviving and due out October 18th. There’s also a new interview with Jim Adkins in Kerrang! talking about the album:


    And this is the first time he’ll be doing so with anyone anywhere about the evergreen quartet’s new album, Surviving (due out on October 18 via The Orchard/rca). You can’t half tell, as the frontman excitedly rattles through the inspirations, meanings and the secrets behind the latest collection of songs he and the band have poured every ounce of their everything into. It turns out there’s a lot to learn, as Jim gets into the core of the record’s politics, its themes of hope and hopelessness, the underlying insecurities that inform its outlook and everything from high-concept philosophy to saxophone solos. The black coffee is very much required for this one…

    Feel like Jimmy Eat World has quietly lodged one of the best catalog's in rock over the past two decades. Static Prevails is a little rough in areas but everything else is otherwise super solid.

    After reading that article, it feels like this record is going to bring a little more passion to the table than a few of their last releases. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but nothing really holds a candle to the Futures-and-earlier section of their catalog.

    I feel like each JEW release after Chase This Light has had the per-release talk of "more passion/emotion".

    And that's why you always leave a note.

    Give Infinity Blues another chance. Futures will always be my favorite as well, but that comes damn close to capturing the same feelings.

    Integrity Blues was the closest they ever got to it. Probably my two faves records now.
