Claude says:Capitol dropped Jimmy Eat World a few months after this came out in 1999, calling it a commercial failure — the same label that had micromanaged them through Static Prevails. Mark Trombino produced it with no interference, and the band stretched out: Jim Adkins took over as lead singer, they let songs breathe past six minutes, and the whole thing became a cult touchstone that emo kids and critics now rank among the genre's best. A handful of stray plays between 2006 and 2009 didn't mean much, but it clicked for you in mid-2010, eleven years after release, and you've kept it close since — "Lucky Denver Mint" and "Believe in What You Want" lead the pack, but you've worked through most of the tracklist over the years.
