Night At The Museum, Kanye’s surprise set Friday night, and now this relatively high-budget JEW video? The American Museum Of Natural History is having the best year ever. But why so much nautral history love? Well the push could be due to a reawakened-interest-in-biodiversity-in-the-face-of-global-warming, but we’re cynical and certain AMNH recently hired some kick-ass publicists. Oh, right, Jimmy Eat World: they’re in this video, somewhere, with their ever-present bangs and increasingly present Bryan Adams bend.

Chase This Light is out on Interscope.

Emo: it might as well be a four-letter word
Back in 2001, when Bleed American was exploding all over modern-rock radio, I sat down with Jimmy Eat World guitarist Tom Linton and frontman Jim Adkins and asked about the emo label with which their group had been saddled. Linton made a joke about "emo ...
Album Review: The Jealous Sound, 'A Gentle Reminder
But then it hit me. I had heard this before. Fast-forward a few minutes, after I quickly browsed through Jimmy Eat World’s discography and realized why it sounded so familiar. Not just familiar, but almost identical. The song I had just been ...

    Seriously, Stereogum? Jimmy Eat World? How about some more Counting Crows and Vertical Horizon coverage while we’re at it!

    all of those bands are awesome.

    ryan can suck my cock.

  4. Yeah Stereogum, please stick to posting about hipster bands that wear capes!

    ryan is an idiot. JEW is awesome. also, the LA natural history museum is way better than the NYC one.

  6. I defiantly didn’t notice how Bryan Adams the lead has become.. creeeepy.

    Aw, Jimmy Eat World. Takes me back.

    Isn’t that T-rex/stegosauras display in the entrance of LA’s museum?

    Also, this record was a gigantic disappointment. Butch Vig needs to stop with the high polish production value.

  9. Its really spectacular… i like the video .

  10. Not a bad song. It’s a little weird that JEW are still writing songs about being 15. These guys must be like 35 now. How about writing songs about adulthood or at least being in your 20′s…just a thought.

  11. aw, look! and they’re LEARNING.

    jim looks really silly lip-syncing.

  12. ugh… If they’re lookin old, that means I’m old.
