Jimmy Eat World is a popular alternative rock band. They started in Mesa, Arizona in 1994. The band has released many studio albums over the years. They have also put out several well-known songs. Some of their famous singles include Sweetness and The Middle.

The band was once linked to the emo music style. Many people still use this word to describe them. However, the band members themselves do not really like or understand the term. While their early albums had some emo sounds, their album Futures brought a new sound. This change also brought them a different group of fans.
