an amazing band from Mesa, Arizona, who despite coming into the public's eye with their hit The Middle, had already made to awesome records beforehand. Still, the LP that featured The Middle, Bleed American (self-titled after 9/11) is probably their best work. Their newest album, which came out in October of 2004, was also amazing, and the song Pain got heavy radio play. They're often called 'emo' but they hate that word.

A little known Christian band that make sfun of Jimmy Eat World. Someone will probably delete this thinking it's a fake group then shit themselves the next day when they here J.E.W. on XM Radio.
I never thought I would see the day. It's as big of a surprise as the Beastie Boys were.

Jimmy Eat World are one of the best Rock/Alternative bands there are. Although they are not _Emo_ like simple plan some of their music is thought to be of this genre. J.E.W's signature song has since become 'Pain' part of their album 'Futures'.
the name was given to the band by the son of one of the members:of Jimmy slicing up and eating the world like a cake.
I if you are into Rock and do not know of this band i suggest you start listening to some of their material:-)
Clarity, Futures, Bleed American and Stay on my side tonight

A surprisingly iPod-worthy mainstream rock/punk/pop band with some nice beats. Their first hit, "The Middle", never gets old.
Regis Philbin made fun of Jimmy Eat World, and said they sucked, but who cares? He's REGIS!

Jimmy eat world is a band who rocks! They got their name when Jimmy's (the lead singer) younger brother drew a picture of Jimmy eating the world titled "Jimmy eat world".

An absolutely amazing band from Mesa, Arizona who broke into the mainstream scene of music in 2001 by releasing their album "Bleed American", which is probably the best, as well as the first true blend of Pop Punk and Emo, with some elements of Power Pop as well. "Bleed American" was followed by "Futures" in 2004 which was darker and almost better than it's predecessor. Before all of that they released "Clarity" in 1999 which was at first a commercial failure, but, has since gained cult status and is credited as a major influence on the Emo subgenre of music, being considered as the best Emo album ever by some critics. So basically, they're incredible.
Stop reading and go listen to Jimmy Eat World
