Single Minded: Jimmy Eat World, Gov’t Mule, Kenna, Thrice and Moros Eros

10/16/07, 11:46 am EST

Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more.

Jimmy Eat World, “Big Casino” [Official Site]
Jimmy Eat World went from being the band that was going to bridge two generations of emo to the band that held the door so Fall Out Boy could get to the bank. This single is a sweet reminder of all they did so well.

Moros Eros, “Safety Net” [MySpace]
Underrated Georgia band’s new single starts like Charlie Chaplin, transforms briefly into Gang of Four and ends up like Drive Like Jehu. Needless to say, all three parts are amazing. The best band you’ve heard nothing about.

Gov’t Mule (ft. Willi Williams) “Rebel With a Cause” [MySpace]
Reggae legends Willi Williams and Toots Hibbert make Gov’t Mule bearable. Kinda.

Kenna, “Say Goodbye to Love” [Official Site]
Kenna’s second album is called Make Sure They See My Face, which is about a half-step up from calling it You Guys Know Who I Am, Right? Spry and slippery first single prove that the Neptunes also own a copy of Let’s Dance.

Thrice, The Alchemy Index Vols. I & II [Full Album Stream]
Art-rock band crafts double album based on two of the earth’s essential elements. Sadly, they will be stopping before they reach the earth’s fifth essential element: bacon.

Warren Haynes, leader of the kinda bearable Gov’t Mule, is number 23 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

“make Gov’t Mule bearable. Kinda.”

J. Edward Keyes, that is a bunch of horse shit.

Your own mag ranks Warren Haynes as one of the best guitarists of all time. Nicely done, guy.

Ditto on all these below posts. Gov’t Mule has more talent than any of the clowns that have graced the RS pages this year. Warren Haynes is an inspiring guitar player, one of the best there is today.

Not too bright and certainly not accurate, Mr. Keyes…
