Delayed to June 18. 

there is closer to 15,000 total vinyl copies pressed of each.

i always wondered why self titled was 2LPs.  its only 47 min long and 4 mins that of silence to a hidden track.  i know the rule is generally 22 min per side and 44 min overall but albums as long as 50 mins could pretty easily fit on a single LP... i know these spin at 45rpm but i still wonder why it wasnt made to just be a single record at 33rpm.

If you look up the word unnecessary in the dictionary, this picture  accompanies it. 

Why 5 versions of one and 4 of the other? I NEED ANSWERS

I'm glad I pre-ordered the blue/yellow self-titled from Smartpunk. That's the only one I ordered.

ADs have overtaken the original post somehow, at least on my pc.  ill try to fix the post soon but almost everything is sold out.
 
 

here are the mock ups all in a single shot.
 


 
 

UPDATE: delayed to june
   
set for a late april 2021 release date,  the used "self titled" and "in love and death" albums are being repressed again due do all previous pressings selling out.  this is a new pressing with new colors about 5 years after the previous 2016 repress.

Holy shit WE NEED ANSWERS!!! WHY HASNT ST BEEN POSTED ABOUT YET WHEN IT CLEARLY HAS 5 NEW VARIANTS!!!!!!!!!

Somebody please shine the Bert Signal! We have GOT to get to the bottom of this missing variant mystery!

i think merchnow had some super sales lately and sold the remaining copies.  im still just a bit confused on why there are 5 self titled colors up for PO but only 4 ILAD colors up for PO.  why would zia only get S/T when revolver and smartpunk got 1 of each and newbury got 2 of each.  somethings off with that.  if zia only does S/T then what store is gonna do only ILAD?

woooooo
worth it
these are from revolver which site says its exclusive.  but the hard times site is a clone of revolver so maybe they are the same owner?
says exclusive
wheres ILAD?  shouldnt they get both?  maybe a different store gets ILAD then?
says exclusive to revolver so maybe they are the same, the sites are clones.
wow!
thank you.  i was goggleing and going crazy.  great help pal.
true. lol.
lol. boom!
hi
no but i will be making a new thread with these soon since its a new pressing with new catalog numbers, it deserves it own thread.

Wasda, is it you?! No one else has done those massive link trees of The Used releases. 

@tug @gutterball1 where are you?

Looks like The Used are tryna top Nothing for largest amount of cool-sounding variants.

So tempted by that blue/yellow but chances of the actual pressing looking like that gotta be slim

I was going to hold off on these but that blue & yellow self-titled is cute.

Just to recap.

Smartpunk has new variants. That Blue and Yellow 👀

Those are the same as the ones Hard Times has. I guess they aren't exclusive to Hard Times.
