When Jimmy Eat World released their latest album, “Futures,” in October, some critics felt it had more of a pop-sound than their previous albums, while others heard a less poppy sound.
The members of Jimmy Eat World just see it as rock.
“We never really consider what we do emo or pop,” drummer Zach Lind tells andPOP. “We just feel like it’s a rock ‘n roll album, but we’re comfortable with people coming up with their own conclusions for the band.”
The band came together in 1994, but hit it big with their massive hit single “The Middle” in 2001. At the time, they were inundated with attachments to labels: from pop, to emo, to punk.
When they started recording their latest album, they incorporated all different types of genres but let the recording process ultimately decide what type of sound the album would have.
“We don?t predetermine what the sound’s going to be like. When we do have songs put together and ready to go and have a chance to shape what the album as a whole is going to be like, that’s when we can edit what the feel of the album can be. If it’s a good song, it’s a good song, whether it’s a slow mellow song or a rockin’ song or a poppy song.”
Jimmy Eat World have been on Saturday Night Live, have played all the late night shows, and have played shows in almost every city in the U.S. and many countries worldwide. In fact, their last tour lasted two years without much of a break.
Yet, Lind thinks staying together for 10 years has been the band’s greatest accomplishment.
“That?s something we have been very fortune to do. It’s been a slow run rather than a big explosion and that’s a big thing.”
Despite their success, Lind says the band members are still the same people that they were in 1994.
“Personality wise, we all matured, but one thing that keeps the band together is that we approach what we do very similarly to how we did then. We’re in this because we have fun doing it. I think it helps us make decisions on how we present our band to the world.”
Becoming more mature was necessary, since their last album was released just a month and a half before the terrorist attacks of September 11. Originally called “Bleed American,” future editions were released with the title, simply, as “Jimmy Eat World.”
“It was a really crazy time. It was just a really bizarre on so many levels,” Lind says. “It’s just really insane to think of how different our world is now compared to when ‘Bleed American’ was released. How we operate as a band and how we interact with our fans and people around us, I think we’ve learned a lot and matured as people.”
The band decided to lend one of their songs, the Guided By Voice’s cover “Game of Pricks,” to the “Future Soundtrack for America” album, a compilation that sought a change in office in the U.S., in which all proceeds benefited non-profit progressive organizations.
Jimmy Eat World felt that a change in office was important, and found no reason not to be involved with the project.
“We support the cause of socially progressive organizations that are trying to bring attention to the issues that we feel are being ignored in the current administration,” he said. “To be a part of a compilation with such great bands that benefit social causes that we feel are being ignored is something we couldn’t turn down. It would have been irresponsible not to be a part of that.”
Lind is happy to turn on the radio and hear bands like Franz Ferdinand and Modest Mouse, bands ? like Jimmy Eat World ? that make “honest music.”
“It’s just great to see bands that make honest music and make music that is real getting notoriety. We’re really happy to hear bands that we feel are very great bands that don?t have to attach their selves to certain genres.”
