This week, singer/guitarist Jim Adkins of Jimmy Eat World chats about the heavy metal (and instructional breakdance) records of his youth, collaborating on a new track by Jay Som, and how he’s attempting to take his critical ear out of the equation when enjoying music at home. The band’s new EP, titled Something(s) Loud — a collection of post-pandemic material that’s only existed digitally until now — is limited to 1,500 copies on vinyl worldwide and available only at jimmyeatworld.com.
