In "Maybe The Concert Industry Is Just As Screwed As The Recorded-Music Biz" news, the promoter of next week's Phoenix shows by Jimmy Eat World and Death Cab For Cutie is offering last-minute discounts on tickets, despite both acts selling out the same venues on their last tour stops here. Whether said soft sales are the result of sky-high ticket prices and surcharges or ever-increasing prices for everyday goods (especially gas), one might think that it's going to be vastly more difficult to fill mid-sized venues over the coming months.

reissue repackage redux

Jimmy Eat World Nostalgic For Late 2001, Platinum Sales

Popular albums are sometimes quickly re-issued as "special editions" with a new cover and some bonus crap. Labels sometimes overhaul career catalogs and drop double-disc reissues celebrating the 10th and 20th anniversaries of classic albums. But what do you make of it when Jimmy Eat World takes Bleed American, an album released in 2001, and gives it the "now with a bonus disc featuring demos and b-sides!" treatment? Especially when they just put out a new album, Chase The Light, last October? Guess A&R doesn't hear another single on that one. More »

The Gremlins (Jimmy) Eat (World) After Midnight


Top 5 things about this video: 1.) Ravenous gremlin saliva. 2.) Mrs. Deagle getting her comeuppance. (Shades of Inland Empire in the close-up!) 3.) Caroling emo gremlin chorus. 4.) Gizmo's self-satisfied smirk when he finds himself unable to drive 55. 5.) The fact that it lead me to this infinitely more awesome/disturbing Gerard Way-meets-Gremlins 2 clip. Have I mentioned how much I love Gremlins? [YouTube; HT: Kate Richardson]

The Worst Album Cover Of The Year Tournament Faces The Music Plumage

For the second entry in today's Anatomically Incorrect bracket, we have pop emo godfathers Jimmy Eat World and their bald feathered metaphor for the place where babies come from (or out of) facing off (omg lol) against Bow Wow and Omarion's collaborative efforts at facial reconstruction. Decide whether it's two-in-the-face or one in the "bush" after the jump! More »
