REVIEW: The Used are a very creative band, in my opinion. But then again, I have an extremely varied musical taste. They are very Emo at times, very Screamo at others.. Burt has a way of making his words breathe emotion, which is a thing I think alot of vocalists forget. They're too busy worrying about making the vocals sound flawless, they take away the raw emotion behind it. This album is nothing groundbreaking for The Used. They take the formula from their self-titled debut and add a little more depth and breadth to the tracks. An excellent sophmore album, from an excellent band.
