Jimmy Eat World Biography

Jimmy Eat World found a larger audience by embracing a blend of alternative rock and power pop that targeted the heart as well as the head. The band's influence widened considerably with 1999's Clarity an album that has since emerged as a landmark of the emo genre. The emo label proved difficult to shake throughout the 2000s even when subsequent albums like Futures and Chase This Light did little to evoke the hard-edged sensitivity of Clarity but Jimmy Eat World still remained a league above the generation of emocore torch-bearers they helped spawn. Limited-edition pressings of One Two Three Four Back from the Dead Mother Fucker and split EPs with Christie Front Drive Emery and Blueprint would later run out of print as would the band's self-titled debut album. The band's audience was steadily growing and Capitol Records responded by signing Jimmy Eat World in mid-1995 when bandleaders Adkins and Linton were only 19 years old. Porter soon exited the group; Linton's best mate since seventh grade bassist Rick Burch was enlisted as a replacement and the band marked their major debut with the release of 1996's Static Prevails.
