145679:: The Used - Artwork

New Used is horrible, they should quit now.

 

preferred it to 'lies for the liars' but it's still pretty bad

 

i hate both, personally. I don't think i'll give either another spin again, ever.

 

the new used it's not that bad ! just give it 1 or 2 more listens.

 

no

 

It's not awful, but I dunno, it's not really good either. I've only listened to it like twice in all fairness, but nothing about it seemed new or interesting, will give it a few more listens though I doubt my view will change.

 

Artwork is a return to the sound on their original album. Cept, they suck now.
