Jimmy Eat World - Invented (DGC)
If there’s one thing that this Arizonan four-piece have been masters of since their inception in the early ’90s, it’s consistently possessing the over-bearing sentimentality of a teenage girl. Their seventh studio album certainly doesn’t...
Jimmy Eat World
Jimmy Eat World don’t get any more interesting to look at but, six albums in, they’re still the most reliable practitioners of big-hearted man-rock on the planet. And, having distanced themselves from the E-word long before it became...

Jimmy Eat World : Jimmy Eat World
