Dust off your studded belts and skinny jeans, because The Used are heading Down Under for their landmark 25th Anniversary Tour, and it’s shaping up to be a jaw-dropper. The emo legends are giving fans a front-row ticket to nostalgia with three electrifying nights in each city, celebrating the albums that defined a generation.
These first three records are what put The Used on the map. I can’t wait to experience the joy in playing all three records from front to back. I know it will be an amazing time. I wouldn’t miss it for the world. Sending love to you all and I hope to see you there! – Bert McCracken
Get ready to dive headfirst into their monumental catalogue as The Used roll out full album playthroughs of their first three records: The Used (2002), In Love And Death (2004), and Lies For The Liars (2007). These records not only soundtracked the rise of alternative rock in the early 2000s but also cemented the band as pioneers of the emo scene.
Certified platinum and gold by the RIAA and with over 10 million albums sold worldwide, these albums remain touchstones of angst-ridden brilliance.
The Australian tour will be kicking off on Wednesday 13 August in Brisbane, before heading to Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and closing out in Perth on Wednesday 3 September. Each city will be treated to three back-to-back evenings focusing on THE USED’s formative first three albums, as well as some extra hits, with night one featuring 2022’s self-titled album, The Used, night two featuring 2004’s In Love And Death, and night three featuring 2007’s Lies For The Liars, all played from start to finish at their respective shows in all five cities.
