Jimmy Eat World / Blueprint
Split 7''
Abridged
1996
Rating: 7 transparent doctors out of 10
A double helping of mid-nineties emo. Jimmy Eat World takes side A with a pair of songs called "Christmas Card" and "Untitled," but if memory served "Untitled" is a barely a song at all. It's a very catchy song though, very much inline with their early sound that was poppy but not completely polished for a radio-friendly audience. The song would even be included as a bonus track on later versions of their first full-length "Clarity." The B side is Blueprint with "In-Between Angels," a much lesser-known band that follows the same basic recipe musically as Jimmy Eat World. If it weren't for the vocals being a little different you'd probably assume it actually was JEW.
