Jimmy Eat World - Futures National and the Ultramega OK remixLimited vinyl LP pressing of this 2004 album from the Arizona based emo rock band. The guitars are stacked like thick diamonds, the vocals are way out front and buttressed by sweet harmonies in the choruses, the drums sound large, and the mix is loaded with sweetening from acoustic guitars, keyboards, and female vocals. In the process, they sacrificed the immediacy of the previous record, but they gained an epic and weighty feel. Jimmy Eat World
