Jimmy Eat World “The Middle”

March 20th, 2009 | by admin |


Once a trailblazing name in the mid-’90s emocore scene, Jimmy Eat World steadily rose to national prominence by embracing a blend of alternative rock and power pop that targeted the heart as well as the head. While the band’s influence widened considerably with 1999’s Clarity — an album that has since emerged as a landmark of the emo genre — it was the band’s self-produced follow-up (specifically the infectious single “The Middle”) that crowned them as major figures in commercial rock. The emo label proved difficult to shake throughout the 2000s, even when subsequent albums Futures and Chase This Light did little to evoke the hard-edged sensitivity of Clarity, but Jimmy Eat World nevertheless remained a league above the generation of emocore torch-bearers they’d helped influence.

    Didn’t intend to, I just hate it how people are now using “emo” as an insult, haha, it just means emotional, nothing wrong with that.
