Eventually, spurred by bands such as Fugazi and Sunny Day Real Estate, the band began to experiment with a different sound which can be referred to as "new punk or emo." As they began writing songs and touring in the indie scene, the band were surprised to find like-minded bands such as Christie Front Drive, Sense Field, and Seven Storey Mountain working on similar sounds. Typically, similar sounds came from local scenes (such as Seattle's grunge explosion), but with "new punk/emo," the scene was spread throughout the country. As the band continued touring, they began to attract modest attention in the indie underground. In 1995, label president (and former Nirvana A&R) Gary Gersh signed the fledging band to Capitol Records. Around this time, bass player Mitch Porter parted ways with the band and was replaced by Linton's friend Rick Burch. After a brief scouting for producers, the band joined up with Drive Like Jehu drummer Mark Trombino to record their debut album Static Prevails. Static Prevails closely reflected what existed in the "emo" scene at the time, a balance between punk-influenced scream-alongs and quiet, introspective moments. Rather than push the band through the major-label promotion machine, Gersh opted for a more subtle approach, allowing the band to develop within the indie underground. In the ensuing years, the band was allowed to release singles on independent labels, including split 7-inch's with Christie Front Drive, Jejune, Sense Field, and Mineral. Where most major-label bands were ostracized from the underground as "sell-outs," Jimmy Eat World found themselves in a unique position where they had support from a major label while being embraced by the indie community. / We accept PAYPAL. 30-day satisfaction guarantee on all orders.Shipping is $4.00 to the USA, . ..Multiple items will be packaged together to reduce shipping charges.Thanks for browsing and/or bidding and good luck!
