Listened to their debut today and I still love it so much. His vocals on that album are just perfect.
I think that's better than anything they've released since, ha. If you haven't heard the bsides compilation Shallow Believer check that out at least, I think there's a lot of great songs on there.
Quinn Allman and Branden Steineckert talk about their history with the band and the real reasons for their departure. Also announce they've formed a new band together and will be announcing things soon. Really really interesting listen, but makes me sad as The Used are one of my favorite bands. 801PUNX - Episode 10 - July 17, 2016
I wonder if the singer of Quinn and Branden's band could be Craig Owens. He has been pretty inactive musically lately and has been teasing a new project.
I heard a rumor from people around town that it might be Tyler Glenn from Neon Trees. But I don't know.
That seems likely, too. They are all from Utah, and Tyler was recently a guest on Branden's radio show.
What's this rumored group? Haven't heard anything about it. The Neon Trees guy covered BN and covered them well. Dude is a pretty good singer.
in that podcast posted a couple days ago, Quinn and Branden announce they're working on a new album right now. i heard a rumor around town (where they're from) that Tyler Glenn was part of it too, but that's all just a rumor until it's actually confirmed. Quinn and Branden said they'll announce more by the end of the year.
I feel lame but I'm nervous to listen to that podcast lol! The Used is my favorite band so I don't want any drama to like tarnish my enjoyment of them if that makes sense? I know I'm gonna listen to it regardless but eep! And I am really, really excited to hear whatever Quinn and Branden are working on.
they definitely get very candid about why they're not in the band anymore. it's really interesting, but kinda sad too. i feel like a lot of it wasn't surprising, so maybe it won't bother you too much. either way, the entire podcast is really interesting though so you should definitely check it out.
honestly it all sounds really dumb to me. Especially why Branden got kicked out. If that's exactly how everything went down I find the whole Justin thing with Saosin hilarious. He basically had the same thing happen to him because he went to fill in for Quinn.
There are sometimes I wonder if people never saw the goodbye AP post and just think AP disappeared for no reason and are like "WTF is a Chorus?" Not realizing its owned by the same guy. I like to imagine ACA and The_used_fan fall into that category
