Interpunk has just this morning launched their preorder for the new Jimmy Eat World record, Invented, and to all of our surprises they’re giving away a free 7″ with all orders places. No words yet on whether or not the 7″ is limited to this preorder, or if it would be available elsewhere after, but I’m not taking any chances, personally.
Invented is the long awaited seventh record from the band, and marks the first time they’ve returned to work with Mark Trombino, the producer they worked with on such seminal albums such as Clarity, Bleed American, and Static Prevails. The record is set to be released on September 28th, 2010.
it was great reconnecting and creating an album with Mark Trombino, we can’t wait for our fans to hear it.” Fans will get their first taste of Invented when the first single “My Best Theory” hits the airwaves in August.
You can order the LP or the CD here.
