"We're definitely not young pups. But there are things to be said about not being young pups anymore, too, like more experience," points out Barry, The Jimmies' guitarist and songwriter.
Though they may not be in their twenties anymore, Longview, Washington's favorite pop-punk act The Jimmies have a lot more than youth going for them; they've got solid rock music with songwriting and, dare I repeat it, experience behind them.

Formed over eleven years ago in the small town of Longview, Washington, two brothers, a step-brother, and a longtime friend, (the 5th member has since departed the band to raise a family) The Jimmies have stuck through thick and thin together. The shit has hit the fan plenty of times, and lesser bands would have given up at the mere site of problems. Yet, the band with the motto "win some, lose most" just keeps on going, persisting through whatever struggles come their way. Barry is even quick to point out the fact that the band is one big family comprised of brothers and a childhood friend ("We wouldn't have lasted this long. It's helped us through the hard times").

With enough hard times behind them to last several life times, the opportunity to expand their audience and get their name out there has finally presented itself to the band.

Their second full-length, Let The Fat Men Plunder, was recently released on Ben Weasel's Lookout! Records-distributed label, Panic Button. "It puts the spark back into it, at least for me," Chris, the lead singer of the band, comments on the band signing to Panic Button. "Not that I was burnt out or anything, but it was a very uplifting thing."

"The good thing is we don't have to sell a million records in Portland," Barry smiles. "The label is more out there. Before, you'd have to really go out of your way to find Countdown [the band's debut full-length]; you'd have to hunt it down. But, with Panic Button, we've had people e-mail us from New York and it kind of found them. People that lived here years ago, moved to New York, lost track of us, and then saw ads and stuff for the new CD. That's something that has never happened to us before. Stuff like that really opens the door, helping the record find people rather than people finding the record."

When the conversation turns to missed opportunities and opportunities the band has passed up on prior to Panic Button, Tim, the drummer, points out that he "tries to use regrets as something [he] learns from."

Barry follows that statement with a comment that is both reflective of the band of old and optimistic towards the future: "So many times we got loaded after shows - good shows - and we should have been making connections. And we didn't. We were too busy getting drunk. That happened with a lot of bands, though. Those were partying years. It couldn't have been any other way, though."

The fourteen songs that comprise Let The Fat Men Plunder are still as potently pop and energetically punk as The Jimmies previous releases, including the Someone Has To Play Last EP and Countdown. But, where the "win some, lose most" pessimism was ever present in those two albums, Fat Men offers up "Advantage", a song that sports the lyrics "No one makes it on the first try/ No one makes it on the second try/ No one makes it till they realize you got it." "Ginger," a love song to the stranded vixen, and "Summer High," a song about getting stoned and looking for something to do, also help brighten up the album and give it an optimistic view on life.
