Rob's Best: #11: Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American


Released: July 18, 2001

Over the years, this album has continually served as safe place to return to when I'm feeling lost; it's like an old friend that serves as a reminder of what friends are for.  It's got the full spectrum of emotion, from happy to sad, angry to melancholy, and it's there to show that you'll live through it all and be alright.  Even if you're stuck in the middle... Ha.  Ha.  I love this band for being wonderfully melodic and for the constant layer of overdubs and harmonies that ring out cheerfully on every record.  They do what they do and they do it well.
