Yeah, this band really is horrible. Plus, they are from Utah. The last thing I remember coming out of Utah is Karl Malone. He was cool. But anyways, I really don't like them, I saw them live and I wanted to kill myself because it sucked so bad. Oh well, tell me what you think.

I enjoy 2 of their songs. They suck for the most part. That vocalist is such a coke addict and a loser. People think it's cool how he pukes when he screams. That's just a sign of lack of talent. You don't see guys from grind, metal, or hardcore bands puking all the time.

Aside from that, he's probably doing tons of damage to his vocal chords. Oh well.

The puking thing is just fucking disgusting.

I'm not a big fan of them, but I don't hate them. The only songs I like are "The Taste Of Ink" and "Buried Myself Alive"...but other than those, I don't enjoy them at all.

He's probably not screaming properly, and the pain from doing it wrong might be intense enough to make him puke. He could be screaming his throat raw, coughing, and then puking. Either way, he's fucking up his throat.

02/08/04, 12:49 AM
Yeah hes going to cause like holes in his esaphagus or something....if its happening a bunch......and their decent, but not as talented as alot of hardcore bands out there......

I like a few songs. Choke Me is their best song and it's not even on their CD.

The Bled 13
02/08/04, 07:56 AM
I don't even think they are hardcore. Because he yells doesn't make him hard at all. He is skinny, he can't be hard. Duh. They write crappy lyrics to.

The Bled 13
02/08/04, 07:57 AM
Everytime I Die (To me) is much more harder than them. And they don't even yell that much. Same with Death By Stereo.

The used are pretty fuckin cool - they're not hardcore at all and they'd pry be the first ones to tell u that... lyrically they're not incredible - but why does every band have to be intellectual and try to create the "best" lyrics - half the people on this board think brand new are lyrical geniuses when in reality they try way to hard with their lyrics and over did everything. If i was bert i'd pry do drugs too being from fucking utah. I kinda like it that people are startin to not like em - less people at the concerts so i can see em.

02/22/04, 11:05 AM
i like the used, and the kid who said he only liked "the taste of ink" and "buried myself alive" obvioulsy is a radio listener (only likes mainstream music) which is cleary evident if you still like blink 182 after that poor excuse of a CD where the only good song is the one with the guy from the cure. and to add to that i dont even think you could call that a blink song since its Robert Smith singing the whole song basically, i think it should be Robert Smith feat. Tom DeLonge

no matter how you scream, it still messes up your vocal chords, but in his case hes making it worse.

when you scream often, like hardcore bands and stuff (hell this happened to my sister from playing soccer, and screaming)..nodes start to form on your vocal chords, ruining your voice, and making it harder to sing. once this happens you have to have surgey to remove them.

sorry to rehash but if more metal bands puked on stage, like that band stomach (the singer pukes in peoples mouths) it would be so much more metal! the only reason the metal and grindcore bands that you know dont is becuase they are probably christian- i dont think jesus nutzos are into puking so much, which brings up another point, isnt christian metal hypocritical? i mean, metal is suposed to be about sacraficing virgins and satan and shit. dont get me wrong, i love alot of christain metal...anyway, the used are terrible. that one song with the singer from coalese is fucking sick though. otherwise they are gay as fuck.

i fer one love the Used. They are the one's who got me REALLY into this type of music... actually rock in general. Bert has an awesome voice, whether screaming or singing, and they have worked hard to get out of that little town in Utah to be as big as they are now. I think they have acheived a lot. And me saying that all their albums rock is just an opinion of mine, so I won't argue about that. But don't you think they deserve a little recognition? they HAVE come a long way.

first off the used suck in my opinion, bert can't sing if his dick's life depended on it, and when i say sing i mean live or recorded, he's worse then adam lazarra
the music is mediocore, but his voice just brings the whole thing down
and
he pukes, everyone pukes moron, and he pukes on stage too, look at their first single/video "something with boxes"? i honostly forget something "sharp full of boxes" yeah he pukes on stage
in closing,
it's people like you that make me wish the second coming of christ would already come
it's people like you that make me wonder how much more idiotic the next generation will be, because our generation....wow

Stop being such an ignorant fuck. Wow they like The Used, big deal. They're not infringing it on anyone and music is personal taste. I personally think that they're shit but I don't go around telling fans of them that they "suck at life". Grow up, learn to use punctuation and stop being such a moron.

i wasn't implying that she sucked at life because she listens to the used.
"I like em'! They rock my socks! Bert doesn't puke!"
don't tell me you didn't look at this and think "wow, this person isn't the brightest of the bunch"
this person sounds naive and still has a few years of maturing to do. i call out idiots because the world doesn't need anymore. looking back on it, it was definitly harsh though. there i used some punctuation. what the hell is this, school? and i know you saw that comment coming.

The Used is like one of my favorite bands. Their second album isnt all that bad but the first one was better. Also many bands are way better than them and Berts vocal skills arent that great and their song lyrics suck just alittle. But for some odd reason i like this band a lot.

But as someone already said ...you have to be in a mood for the used. and yes the first album was better ...I'd say keep up the good work The Us3d

i just think his voice is annoying as balls.

when he holds out notes i want to kill myself. after about 2 songs i get sick of hearing them.
i wont lie tho they did put on a good show at Taste Of Chaos.

but still the worst 13 dollars ive spent on a cd.
