You fukken rock. I’m gonna start with Make Yourself since it has the song I know and then try S.C.I.E.N.C.E. after I finish my current album. Thanks so much for the rec!
I just put on both albums and listened to them through. I really enjoyed When It Comes and Clean off Make Yourself. I totally forgot I know Pardon Me too lol. S.C.I.E.N.C.E. was interesting as hell, I’m not entirely sure how much I liked it. A few songs kinda reminded me of RHCP, but most were just totally their own thing. Some awesome drums in this album, which I really appreciate. New Skin and Nebula were probably my favorites off that one, Glass was fun too. I’m not sure which album was better, I guess I’ll need to check out the rest later!
I don’t know if S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is my favorite album period, but it’s way up there and I would say that I’ve relistened to it all the way through more than any other album, only a couple SOAD albums and Rubberneck by the Toadies come close. It’s just so energetic, absurd, and just plain fun! If you like S.C.I.E.N.C.E., you’ll probably like “Enjoy Incubus” too.
Probably a good call starting with Make Yourself though, it’s a lot less weird lol
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. was so great for me because I discovered it after I already loved the band. It was like I got to discover a whole new side to them that I didn’t know. It’s one of my favorite albums because it’s just so raw. You can tell they were just really excited to be making their own music and they weren’t going to compromise until they got the vibe they wanted (even if the musicality wasn’t phenomenal).

Hell yeah! Would love to know which albums you end up liking (if any).
A list like this is how I got into Jimmy Eat World, so I’m happy to pass the stoke on for a band I truly love.
