Jimmy Eat World Gets Creative For “Place Your Debts” Music Video

Photo Credit: Jimi Giannatti The Jimmy Eat World resurgence continues with a new song and unique music video release. Frontman Jim Adkins, himself, directed the footage used for "Place Your Debts". The new release follows the successful DIY launch of "Something Loud" this past summer and the acoustic version of the song a few months later. This is the second music video in a row in that Adkins had a large role in video production. With the stripped-down version of "Something Loud" he spent about a week editing the finished product after recording the audio in a single day. The music video for "Place Your Debt"s was a far more complicated project. The footage was shot while on tour throughout the U.S., U.K., and Europe this past summer. Each segment has a different background wh...

Jimmy Eat World’s Heartfelt Acoustic Version Of “Something Loud”

Going the DIY route, Jimmy Eat World has released an acoustic version of their latest song. The intimate version of "Something Loud" was recorded in their own Tempe, Arizona studio. And the accompanying music video was filmed as they recorded. In other words, what you see is what you get. Frontman Jim Adkins along with long-time band members Tim Linton (guitar/backing vocals), Rick Burch (bass), and Zach Lind (drums) recorded the reworked version in a single day. The entire process to mix and master the song and edit the video was a very hands-on process with Adkins having this to say about the experience. I recorded, mixed, filmed and edited the thing — took about a week all-in. A lot of it was hitting the spacebar to record, then running into the garage to play whatever was s...

“Something Loud” Is Jimmy Eat World At Its Best

Jimmy Eat World's latest single "Something Loud" is available wherever you listen to music. The track features all the hallmarks of a classic Jimmy Eat World song. Opening with punchy guitar riffs, incorporating dynamic instrumental elements throughout, and with the finishing touch of melodic, heartfelt vocals from Jim Adkins. Photo Credit: Jimi Giannatti "Something Loud" was co-produced by Jimmy Eat World and Justin Meldal-Johnson. The song is new but it feels like something that could have been written in the early days of the band. In fact, it was the excitement surrounding the announcement of October's When We Were Young Festival that inspired Adkins. The reaction brought about a time of intense emotional and professional contemplation which he channeled into "Something Loud...
