Most people will listen to this CD and regard the Used as an inferior band. I disagree.
This CD, like their last release In Love and Death, showcases their continuing evolution as a group. The drummer has been replaced, but this guy sounds every bit as good, if not better than their original drummer.
Bert McCracken, the lead singer, no longer screams! I am a fan of some screamo, but I must admit, McCracken is a better singer than screamer. If you are a fan of their first album and dislike In Love and Death, then steer clear from this album. McCracken shows off his pipes more and more and is more impressive on this CD.
"The Bird and the Worm" was the first radio hit off the CD. There may be more, but time will tell. Other noteworthy on the tracks include "The Ripper," "Earthquake," "Hospital," and my personal favorite "Paralyzed."
This album is definitely more up-tempop than their last, but the quality of instrumentation is the same.
Buy this album, you won't be sorry!
