What We Know About Jimmy Eat World’s Upcoming Album
Various retailers have had a new album from Jimmy Eat World pop-up called Surviving and due out October 18th. There’s also a new interview with Jim Adkins in Kerrang! talking about the album:
And this is the first time he’ll be doing so with anyone anywhere about the evergreen quartet’s new album, Surviving (due out on October 18 via The Orchard/rca). You can’t half tell, as the frontman excitedly rattles through the inspirations, meanings and the secrets behind the latest collection of songs he and the band have poured every ounce of their everything into. It turns out there’s a lot to learn, as Jim gets into the core of the record’s politics, its themes of hope and hopelessness, the underlying insecurities that inform its outlook and everything from high-concept philosophy to saxophone solos. The black coffee is very much required for this one…

Amazon Music Launching Lossless Streaming Tier
Amazon Music is rolling out a new lossless streaming tier.
Amazon is launching a new tier of its music service today, dubbed Amazon Music HD. It offers lossless versions of audio files for streaming or downloading at a price that aggressively undercuts Tidal, the main competition for this kind of audio. Amazon will charge $14.99 a month for the HD tier, or $12.99 if you’re an Amazon Prime customer. Tidal’s Hi-Fi plan costs $19.99 monthly. The new plan was rumored a few months ago.
Sum 41 to Play ‘Chuck’ in Full on Upcoming Tour
Deryck Whibley of Sum 41 talked with Alt. Press about playing Chuck live on their upcoming tour:
It’ll be our longest, for sure. I think they’ll be two-hour sets. Not sure if it’s going to be 2:05 exactly, but definitely two hours. The good thing about those two is that they’re relatively shorter records, so it makes sense to play them at one show.
The thing is, we never played every single one of those songs before. Some of those songs we’re going to be playing, we’ve never played ever. There’s maybe a good four or five songs we’ve never gotten around to playing when the album came out. So yes, you are learning stuff. But there’s also the brand-new record: We’ve never played a lot of those songs off Order In Decline; they were built in the studio, but live is a whole different thing. What I’m trying to say is, there’s a lot of rehearsing going on.
Billie Joe Armstrong Talks New Green Day Album
Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day talked with Kerrang a little about the band’s upcoming album:
Trump gives me diarrhoea (laughs), you know? I don’t want to write a song about it!
It’s just more about trying to empathise with people’s situations. It’s just a crazy time. When I was a kid, my parents had six kids. My dad was a trucker and my mother was a waitress, and they bought a home in California in the ’70s with five kids living in the house. That is an impossible thing to do right now in California – if not in other places. And that’s what scares me a little bit more – what’s going to happen to people in the future.
