DreamWorks Records has announced that the
year old Jimmy Eat World CD “Bleed America” has been certified platinum
in the US with sales of over 1 million copies.
The band has scored two radio hits with
singles from the album, “The Middle” and “Sweetness” and has also managed
to win over fans during their seemingly endless tour in support of the
album. The biggest break came when they were added as support for Greenday
and Blink-182’s “Pop Disaster Tour” earlier this year.
Earlier this week, the video for “The Middle”
was also nominated in the “Best Rock Video” category for this year’s MTV
Video Music Awards.
They aren’t showing any signs of letting
up with a full touring itinerary scheduled to last until this Fall. They
are currently on a headlining tour with supporting acts The Promise Ring
and Recover.
