Jim Adkins talks about new Jimmy Eat World album

Jim Adkins of Jimmy Eat World talked briefly to Phoenix People about what we can expect from their upcoming album:

What I'm hoping to get out of it, the way we've been recording it, it's a lot less slick. It's not to say we didn't take our time and mix it and make sure performances were good and things were sounding good, I think we just had a better sense of what to let go and what to focus on. That comes from paying more attention to the vibe of things rather than the perfection of things. The short answer is that it's definitely rougher-sounding, a little grittier. I don't think it's going to sound like anything we've done. It'll be similar yet different.

The band last released Invented in 2010.
