Jimmy Eat World have had an eventful career. Dumped by their old label, they've since been signed up by another and have gone on to be one of the biggest names in nu-metal.

This single is a good example of what they do. Lyrics aren't what you buy their records for - rather, the great big fuck-off guitar riffs that drive their songs are the point - and Sweetness has these in spades. And they sound just a wee bit more genuine about it all than most of their peers.

If you like Blink 182 then Jimmy Eat World are for you.
