Rock band The Used have released a deluxe b-side album MEDZ via Big Noise. The new EP offers seven new singles from The Used from the Toxic Positivity writing sessions with John Feldmann in 2022 and 2023. The new tracks include focus single “Terrified”.
The Used is hitting the road this summer and Fall on two headlining tours. The Used just kicked off their summer headlining tour joined by special guests Story Of The Year and Amira Elfeky, and in the Fall, they’ll be hitting the road with Plain White T’s and Ruae.
Last year, The Used released Toxic Positivity. The band’s robbietheused describes it as a “day-in-the-life journey of a depressed, anxiety-ridden person”, covering topics like addiction and mental health.
He adds:
This record is quite tough for me to listen to, because it’s a reflection of times in my life that have been some of my lowest ever.
The Used is robbietheused (Vocals), Jepha (Bass), Dan Whitesides (Drums) and Joey Bradford (Guitar).
