If this is indeed the standard edition, not deluxe, I will be in awe

 

song titles are enticing

 

Weird.

 

OK this is nowhere near what I expected, at all. I really like it though, catchy as fuck

 

I'm going to go ahead and predict a radio edit without that middle part

 

Wow I'm really happy with this song. Huge step up from Imaginary Enemy imo.

 

I'll have to check this out in the morning but I'm very interested by the track titles and length

 

I like it - but there's something about the production that's not sitting right with my ears. Good song though. Super catchy so I dig it.

 

Ugh the guitar on this is so good

 

This is pretty different for them, no? I actually really like it. 17 tracks and 79 minutes... these guys are going all out haha

 

Really dig the new song. I expected half as much with Justin joining them, he is one talented dude!

Something about the song does sound off at times production/mix wise not sure if it was the stream, going to listen with headphones in later.

The album is long af though!

 

I dig the artwork and the new song. I feel like it's the most mature song I've heard from them in a long ass time.

 

I really hope I like this.

 

You should be pleasantly surprised. It's best they've sounded in a long time imo.

 

EASILY imo

 

Also... "Selfies In Aleppo".



Just thought that deserved an extra mention.

 

Nothing better than waking up to a new Used song lol Oh hell yeah!! I absolutely love the new song. I am so excited to hear this album!

 

Pretty sure this is their best song since the 2nd album. Nice.

 

@TUG we did it! It happened!

 

Song is pretty good, but holy shit is the mixing terrible. The drums sound awful, and they're strangely placed in the mix, especially some of those fills.

 

I feel like The Used is not the type of band who can pull off a 17 songs, 79 minutes album without it having a ton of filler tracks. But I'm hoping they prove me wrong though.

 

I'm inclined to agree... but I also didn't think they could pull off a song this different and absolutely nail it, so maybe they'll surprise me again.

 

This definitely showed some of Bert's MJ influence. It wasn't the kind of song I was expecting! I'll have to listen to it again, but I'll echo the same though that it's very catchy.
