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.
