not their most memorable work........2007-07-16

first of all, this is not the jimmy eat world you think you know. if you just finished listening to bleed american or futures and are looking into buying this cd, stop right now, this cd isn't for you.

for those who are fans of jimmy's earlier work this is an intriguing collection of songs in the same vein as static prevails. the problem is, it's hardly as memorable as there isn't a single stand out track in the group. it's surely interesting, but not necessarily worth your time.

jebediah's contribution at the end of the split cd isn't much better. the only song worth listening to is the ending track, "harpoon" and even that will have you searching for where you last placed jimmy's prized album, clarity.

if you're a rabid fan of this band, or an obsessive collector, you may want to pick this one up. but if you're a music fan, you should probably skip over this lackluster effort.

First 10 and last 3 have very few good parts........2006-02-20

I would just like to say that the first disc is not even worth wasting your time with. I am one of the biggest JEW fans you will ever find and this is the worst cd by far that they have ever come out with. The best song on the first disc is when they are not singing. If you enjoy JEW and their soft and melodic ways then this is not your cd. While listining I was wondering if this was even the same band that produced the two greatest cd's I've ever heard (Clarity & Bleed American). The cd pretty much consist of someone who you can't understand screaming and bad guitars. I am writing this to warn people that the first disc is awful and don't even waste your time. Now the second disc is slightly different. The first two songs are spectacular and that is the only reason they got 2 stars. The third song is just a badly-done version of one of my all-time favorite songs "Cautioners." If you really want to hear this disc just search "Jebediah" on amazon and look for JEW and Jebediah and you can buy this disc seperate from the other one. Jebediah is an awful band and doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as JEW. So all you die hard JEW fans like me. Stay as far away from this cd as possible and put on Clarity because you may never hear anything that good from Jimmy Eat World ever again.

A decent split.......2007-03-09

I must say that I was a huge Jebediah fan back in the day (still am) so I was excited when this split was announced in 2000. I do agree that the song selection was a little strange from the jebs. 'Animal', the first single off 1999's 'Of Someday Shambles' ais far more superior when played live compared to the album version, 'Star Machine', 'Did you really' or 'Feet Touch The Ground' may have been a better choice. 'The Least Trusted Pain Remover', a b-side off the 'Animal' single, is rather too long and, for me, doesn't really kick in until towards the end which turns out to be the songs' redemption. The next song is 'Harpoon', a classic from 1997's 'Slightly Odway' with its tale of love and confusion. The australian release of this split (on Redline records) has a different song line up with the awesome 'Simple' and a crappy re-mix of 'Please Leave'

JEW's three songs are all great. 'No Sensitivity' is my favourite of the three and is such a great pop song (well, my version of pop anyway. This version of 'Cautioners' is far superior to the 'Bleed..' version. Although I love Rachel Hayden's voice, the album version feels overproduced and looses some of its impact.

Its hard to compare which band is better as they both have different styles although the bands themselves are quite good friends. Jebs trump Jimmy in live performances though..just

The vinyl release is quite stunning with its three clear 7inches. I recommend it. I have given up looking for the red and white vinyl release of this.

Jebediah could have done better.......2003-05-15

Let me first say that Jebediah is a superb band. What disappointed me with this CD was the inclusion of two sub-par songs by Jebediah. 'Animal' was possibly the weakest single they've released, and the other song is a b-side which has never even appeared on one of their albums. Not a particularly smart way to try and break into the American market.

Jimmy Eat World contributes three typically solid songs. No Sensitivity in particular is quintessential Jimmy Eat World - catchy hook, melodic chorus. But being a fan of both bands, I can honestly say that the best Jeb songs are light-years better than even the best Jimmy Eat World songs..

Another reason why I consider this combination of bands somewhat strange is that Jimmy is a emo-pop band and appeals to a particular demographic. Jebediah is a pop-punk band, but the similarities end there. Jeb is fun, irreverent and frenetic. Think Jimmy Eat World meets Green Day.

If you are interested in checking out more Jebediah stuff, I would highly recommend the 'Slightly Odway' album, and in particular their b-side 'Simple' and the singles 'Jerks of Attention' (get the fast version) and 'Teflon'. That showcases them far better than the uninspiring Jeb songs included on this CD.

A Great Split EP With A Band No One Knows Here In America.......2003-03-27

I got this cd last Christmas from my parents. It has three Jimmy Eat World songs, and two by Australian band Jebediah. It's a darn good album. Every Jimmy Eat World song is solid, including original version of Bleed American's "Cautioners", and the two from Jebediah are good. All in all, a nice addition for fans to their Jimmy Eat World collection.

No Sensitivity.......2002-12-16

I actually havent heard any of the other songs on this cd but I would like to say that No Sensitivity is not only the best song by Jimmy, it is possibly the best song EVER. Words cant describe how awesome this song is. The acoustic guitar solo is amazing. This cd is worth buying just for that song and im sure the other Jimmy songs are awesome too though.

amazing.......2002-07-28
