i think track 2-4 is the worst part of the album though : / just not huge on lean or book of love and the title track got boring after multiple listens.

To put it bluntly, Jimmy Eat World's latest album Damage is incredible.

slowest doesn't = bad. damage is really chirpy and feel-good with emotional lyrics; lean has a great groove to it, almost shoegazey in its layers of guitar and droney feel; book of love has gorgeous lyrics and really pretty acoustic guitar and bridge.

I hear you i'm still digesting the album so maybe i'll change my mind but i just don't like them as much as the other tracks

like i said before i really can't place any one song above or below another. if i'm just going to pick one song to listen to i always jump to book of love, but i can't say it's better than any of the other songs because they all work together in context. album is so consistent that i really can't rate the songs. i have no idea if they stand on their own well; i don't even know if any of the songs on here would rank in my top 20 jimmy eat world songs. for me this is an album album, not a song album.

Album so isn't a 5. Seems like standard JEW material, which is never a bad thing, but I wish they'd make something wholesome and rewarding again.



Clarity >>> Futures > Bleed American >>> Invented >>> earlier stuff = this > CTL

@ash Bit strange to just write off their pre-Clarity material as "earlier stuff". Static Prevails is fantastic in its own right and their debut is a fun listen.

I think it’s a pretty good album and better than their previous two. Please Say No has grown on me a bit but I think the last 2 songs are rather weak. The whole cassette sound kind of thing on You Were Good doesn’t sell me, and Byebyelove sounds rather repetitive in my opinion.
