That's one of the posters they had hanging around Warped Tour 2013 with their set times and locations. I grabbed one at the end of the day, ha! One of their best performances I've seen was at that Warped.

Saw them then too! Got one signed at their merch tent. Awesome guys, hope to catch them on their last tour.

Spun all three today. Futures and Clarity met all my expectations and I'm glad to own them. I had never heard Statie Prevails but I have enjoyed almost all other JEW releases so I figured why not. It's.. not that great, to my ears. That other singer is kinda jarring and it's definitely in rough mode. I get that it's basically a different era of the band, I am just not in love with the sound. The products themselves are fantastic, although I'm not a fan of black covers like Futures because tiny finger smudges are very apparent. I touched it when I received it and said 'Oh jeez, better go wash my hands.' Maybe I'm just a disgusting dude, I dunno.

It's still Jim singing most of that record. Tom's voice hasn't really changed over the years.

Yeah, Jim's voice on that record is actually very different than how it is now, where Tom's is basically still the same.

I kind of really love Jim's voice on Static haha. I don't know if I'd pick it over his voice presently, but it's a nice change of pace to throw that record on my TT and still be listening to JEW.
