Hi guys! I play with Cirse in a party oriented to modern Alternative/Punk/Emo/Post-Hardcore/Metal bands and the cool thing is that I discovered or remembered bands that I had forgotten, like this Alkaline Trio. For any reason I relate this band to Jimmy Eat World, maybe it's because both play alternative punk rock but sound very original.

Man, I love Alkaline Trio! Time to Waste is one of my favourite songs...awesome

Yeah! It is great! I like the use of piano in that song.

I have never heard of them! Great band!! LOve their music now!

I've always like what I heard on the music channels of AT but never bought any of their stuff. I must remedy this.

I've always classified Jimmy Eat World as a more up to date take on Power Pop (think Cheap Trick, Big Star, Gin Blossoms etc), especially their newer albums.

yeah, they became more pop but their quality increased even more from my point of view!

Definitely, i've been playing their last few albums in the car a lot lately. Each album usually has 1 song that just resonates with me, not that the others are bad, just a special song that hits me hard

Now I'm curious! What songs?

Thanks for the reminder Mr. Leopardi Haven't listened to these guys in a while!

Bleed American - A Praise Chorus
Futures - Work
Chase This Light - Always Be

yeah! I love those tracks. I would add some others like this one...

I only know this one, from Jimmy eat world:



Thee songs are from the 'American pie' golden era

yeah, their first and biggest hits! but they keep on evolving as a band, you should check the other albums!

Well, maybe they have more good stuff, but they haven't attracted my attention after this song

There are also these guys

I was CRAZY about the shoes in this video ()3.32) - the brand is called Joe's Garb and a lot of American rock stars are wearing them

Wou!! I like the stage where they are playing... and yeah, that shoe is so cool!!

There was this big wave of band in the early 2000 late 90's which had a lot to deal with 'American pie' type movies Lit and Jimmy Eat world are both from that era! I kinda miss those times man

That's true Cosmin! Although Jimmy Eat World are still around...no clue about Lit though.
I loved their songs "Ziplock" and "Over my head"...and there are not even good versions on youtube. It's a shame!

I know man...and those shoes ...

me too! but at the same time I'm happy of being able to enjoy the new waves of modern punk/hardcore/metal bands. Every era has its own killer bands, ad for any reason we believe that they are not as the older ones, but when 10 years past we realise that those bands were as amazing as the previous ones... at least that happened to me... now that I discovered it, I try to enjoy new music as much as the older one.

Me too man but it's inevitable not to remember various things which happened back then and smile I'm a nostalgic sometimes
