PeterAOct 16, 2007It's quite different to Futures but I like it. Those guys are just talented in every single way! High Rating. JEW for ever.

MattB.Oct 25, 2007I love it, a little below the awesomeness of Futures, but still a great sounding album. Jimmy Eat World will continue to win hearts around the world with this one.

JoeRNov 11, 2007Another consistently great album from Jimmy Eat World! With not a single bad song on it, "Chase This Light" is easily one the better albums I've heard this year, or any. People need to get off the "Clarity" high horse - it was far from their best album. Rather it was only a decent stepping stone to what would become a very competent band as their ensuing albums have shown.

NathanT.Oct 19, 2007A great comeback album from the Arizona lads. Only played the Cd twice and already in love with it. Main highlights definitely have to be 'Let It Happen', 'Electable (give it up)' and who could forget the absolute gem of a finale in 'Dizzy'. great work by J.E.W. This record will fill stadiums for years to come, and of course my Cd player also!!!

JulieG.Oct 25, 2007I am so psyched to finally have the new cd by Jimmy Eat World!!!!! I can't help listening to it over and over again. It is really well done, the lyrics are great and the songs are strong. I think it's definitely a bit poppier than their previous releases, and some of the lyrics are not quite as far-reaching, but overall I love it.

MattD.Oct 26, 2007It is in Jimmy Eat World's comfort zone, but the more synthesized sound has easygoing charms of its own.

ChrisG.Dec 6, 2007It's pretty good but kind of disappointing at the same time. I have been hoping for them to come out with an amazing happened but it just doesn't seem in the cards anymore. Regardless of what people say, "Clarity" is their best album and I compare everything they do to that. That may be unfair of me.

Thanks to singer Jim Adkins's bottomless well of high-flying choruses (not to mention the general shittiness of current affairs), the formula still delivers.

Jimmy Eat World go to great lengths to recapture the anthemic thrills of "Clarity"--and give or take a few bouts of brooding cynicism, they’ve succeeded.

After nearly seven years, to churn out an album with three highlights and eight overblown odes (among them, 'Here It Goes,' 'Carry You,' and the forced empowerment of the title track) is disappointing.
