Sad Heart Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 15 years old, and still as shitty as the day it came out. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I hope no one expected the album or genre to age like a fine wine over 15 years, but there's something to be said about having the same shitty tastes remain stagnant for a decade and a half. I can't really fathom it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really fathom it. mostly everything i love came from the 2002 era. music, video games, tv, etc. it was a time of top most quality and my favorite things from there stuck with me since then. the things before that from childhood phased away from my tastes (like pokemon for example) and the things after that were when i just went through a weird phase in life and was into weird things but i got of that so 2002 is like the happy medium of my life and at the same time the world of when great things and great quality existed.

Derek™ Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 So with that being said, we can both finally recognize that the only reason you're infatuated with The Used is on account of nostalgia, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1876records Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I fucking love the self-titled record and have zero shame. It still holds up to this day and rules. But, I really hate tug still. Like, a ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've been a member of this forum for over two years now. You should have figured out how things work around here by now.

At the time they were on unknown/barely known band. Now 15 years later they are one of the most well-known revolutionary sounds of rock and one of the most influential bands of our era and one of the best bands in rock 'n' roll history and it all started with this one album that's considered one of the most important albums in rock history.

andrewlucas Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 The first two albums are still amazing. How can you listen to Blue and Yellow and think it sucks? That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Yeah, The Used’s S/T is actually a landmark album for a lot of people. Myself included. By landmark, I mean that it’s a blurry point of reference, way off in the distance. One you can squint at and realize “wow, I used to listen to that shit? Look how far I’ve come!” Progress and developed tastes are worth celebrating and I think it’s very important that we never forget our roots, no matter how poorly they’ve aged and how embarrassing they may be to actively listen to nearly 2 decades later.
