[HeartlandGirl]

I have this, but I have yet to listen to it. I buy too many CDs at once.

 

[Dragonfave]

I bought the deluxe edition. And I loved it. On the demo CD, some of the songs on it made me laughed a little bit. I don't know why.

 

[u2popmofo]

I got the deluxe one too (it was cheaper than the normal one for some reason)

I'm actually surprised with how much I like it, it's great. (and I knew I'd like it to begin with)

i've only heard the lead single, but i've read good things about the album.

Okay, so uh...

I'm resurrecting this thread to say that I have, for God knows what reason, finally taken some time to listen to this album. This record is fucking brilliant. Almost every song on it is either catchy as all get out or stunningly beautiful. Polaris is a work of incomparable emo brilliance.

Great rock album. Sorry it took me this long to finally give it a go.

And for anyone who cares, Jimmy Eat World have just finished recording a new album...not sure of a release date yet, but after finally listening to Futures, I'm excited to hear it. Also hoping to see them play a hometown show next month too.

So yeah. It took me a while to get into this album , but it was well worth the wait.

23 is an excellent little song.

As far as generic pop-rock goes, they do it pretty well.
