THE USED where |
bert mcCracken - vocals jeph howard - bass branden steineckert - drums/vocals quinn allman - guitar/vocals Hailing from Orem, Utah where the most devout, closed-minded concentration of mormons in the country. The band has surmounted homelessness, substance abuse and closed-minded environs to create compelling, sincere music, which they perform with style and verve lice and on their debut album for Reprise Records. Recorded in LA at the home studion of producer John Feldmann and at london's legendary Olympic Studios (Beatles, Rolling Stones), it contains thirteen anthems and ballads that thrum with the intesity of four guys who have given everything to one thing: music. Their effort is palpable in a sray of crashing rhythms, sublime melodies, candid lyrics, dynamic vocals and, natch, big guitars. The songs themselves are direct accounts. |
