4) Quinn Allman is gorgeous
5) you think they suck? just because theyre not the music YOU listen to doesnt mean they suck
6) im not emo. but emos dont jsut live to cut.
7) quinn is an amazing guitarist.
8) is you download some of ther music without the vocals. and actually LISTEN to the music. you can see how amazing ther musical skills really are.
9) they are not drug addicts. bert mccracken once was. but after dating kelly osborne and seeing how screwed up she was. he stopped
10) bert mccracken doesnt only scream. he sings. he has a beautiful voice that he can turn hard core at times but in more gentle songs his voice is awesome.

In my opinion, one of the best bands today. Their lyrics are fresh and every member is talented, unlike most of today's bands.
The Used are so much better to listen to than Metro Station or All Time Low.

The Used is an amazing band, who have amazing lyrics. They have 7 albums: Demos From The Basment, The Used, Maybe Memories, In Love and Death, Berth, Lies for the Liars, and Shallow Believer. But only 4 of them are studio records(The Used, In Love and Death, and Lies For the Liars.)
The band consists of Bert Mccracken on vocals; Quinn Allman on guitar; Jepha Howard on bass; and Dan Whitesides on the drums, although Branden Steineckert was the original drummer but was kicked out in the summer of 2006.
The Used are from Orem, Utah. They have toured with Blink-182, My Chemical Romance, Goldfinger, Linkin Park on their Projekt Revolution tour, Warped Tour, and recently headlined Get A Life Tour.
It is very hard to classify The Used into a genre but overall they are a rock band.
Their older albums are a bit harder, with more screaming, but their new cd Lies For the Liars has a more jazzy sound to it, along with some more slow songs, the song Wake the Dead, pretty much sums up what their whole entire new album sounds like.
Bert Mccracken has a great voice, he can hit and hold the high notes and he can scream till he throws up(which he does often on stage). Along with Quinn's complex guitar riffs, Jepha's bass rhythms and Branden's beats, makes The Used one of the best bands out there today.
Poetic Tragedy - The Used
The cup is not half empty as pessimists say
As far as he's sees, nothing's left in the cup
A whole cup full of nothing for him to indulge
Since the voice of ambition has long since been shut up
A singer, a writer, he's not dreaming now of going nowhere
He gave heed to nothing, and all that he was....
Is just a tragedy
So he voyages in circles
Succeeds getting nowhere
And submits to the substance
That first got him there
Then in violent, frustration, he cries out to God or just no one
Is there a point to this madness and all that he was....
Is just a tragedy
He feels alone
His heart in his hand
He's alone
He feels alone
I feel....
Then on that last day he breaks
And he stood tall
And he yelled... and he takes his life
