The Used — Berth

in
By Shehzaad Jiwani (CHARTattack) February 6, 2007 2:19 pm
Extended downtime between albums is a bitch. To remedy this situation, cookie cutter live releases like Berth are thrown together for some quick cash before the next record sees the light of day. The Used stick so close to the CD versions of the songs (minus some obligatory call and response with the Vancouver crowd) that it renders this brief,...

The Used Are Gang Of Octopussies

in
By Mark Teo (CHARTattack) January 15, 2010 5:33 pm
Magnolia was released in 1999; Fire In The Sky was released in 1993. But in 2010, those films are still having a profound effect on Bert McCracken's life. McCracken's no aspiring filmmaker — he's the scruffy frontman of Utah screamo-punks The Used. He's not contemplating the critical value of each movie; they're actually the reason he gets held...

The Used — Artwork

in
By Sheena Lyonnais (CHARTattack) November 5, 2009 4:14 pm
Out of the depths of The Used's troubled minds comes their fourth studio album, Artwork, a disturbing release injected with a heavy dose of self-hate. The band stated in interviews that this was their most personally anticipated release since their 2002 self-titled debut. That's fine, but the album lacks the visceral catchiness of tracks like...

The Used — "Blood On My Hands"

in
By CHARTattack Staff July 29, 2009 11:00 am
The Used's clip for Artwork's "Blood On My Hands" imagines singer Bert McCracken as a serial killer who seems to be killing child molesters posing as 15-year-old kids. Creepy, and by the end of the video McCracken is literally covered in blood and gets hanged for his crimes. Artwork is out Sept. 1.

The Used have cancelled their June and July shows after lead singer Bert McCracken was told that he needed throat surgery. The frontman developed a node on one of his vocal chords, which will keep him from singing for roughly the next five weeks. This has forced the band to step back from the Vans Warped Tour, including the July 3 stop in...
