NEW ALBUM CHASE THIS LIGHT IN STORES OCT.16
FIRST SINGLE 'BIG CASINO' AVAILABLE ONLINE NOW
Jimmy Eat World has announced a North American US tour to coincide with the Oct. 16 release of its new album, Chase This Light. The Mesa AZ quartet has covered a good chunk of the globe over the past few months, debuting songs from the forthcoming album and airing both standards and seldom-heard fan favorites alike. The band's recent U.S. dates generated some of the best live reviews of the band's career ("a captivating performance that spanned and sometimes re-imagined its catalog" -- Arizona Republic) and were followed by a debut tour of South Africa, and finally a string of European festival appearances that culminated at Reading/Leeds in the UK this past weekend.
"Big Casino", the first single from Chase This Light, is now available at all online music retail, and the album can be pre-ordered at iTunes.
Chase This Light is the band's first full length studio album since the gold-certified Futures, which landed on ROLLING STONE, BLENDER and SPIN's Best of 2004 lists. Executive producer Butch Vig (Nirvana, Sonic Youth) recently described the album as "Quite eclectic. There are three or four songs that sound like classic Jimmy Eat World, with angular, razor-sharp guitars. There are a couple that are a lot more dreamy, and some that are very groove-acious."
