Why do people feel bad about liking things? Because it's not cool to like The Used right now I guess?
nah I shamelessly and hopelessly love this album still. that post was meant as more a joke because I'd played the song like 3 times in a row and it was still stuck in my head lol
I do like most of this record a lot and would kill for a clean recording of it. The muddiness really keeps me from listening to it as much as I would Really one of the worst sounding albums production-wise
I would not want a cleaner version of this record. I feel like the production is a major strength here tbh.
Meh I'm all for rawness but it sounds like they put the cd in a boombox and recorded it to a cassette and THAT'S the version they released. It's all so muffled.
I’m a big defender of this album still but the production really is trash, and I usually am not as bothered by production as most people.
That's a shame for two reasons. 1. Hell or Highwater is the better band so it sucks he's no longer in but since Atreyu is in full swing again, I don't know how active Hell or Highwater even is right now. 2. Just like Justin quiting Saosin for this, I hope he didn't quit a better band to be thrown out a little down the road.
lol even in their early days (AKA their most beloved days) they weren't even near the most beloved rock bands in the world.
