I don't care what the music critics are saying, The Used newest album 2009 called "Artwork" brings out the sensitive questionable side that we all think but won't say with songs like "Sold My Soul" and "Empty with you" which is probably the most ear catching mellow songs I've heard from them.

The album doesn't sound like a lot of their past works but its still worth the listen. I respect the new sound and songs they've made and I am still a strong fan of the Used.

Some critics have had the audacity to say that this album sounds like a "christian rock band" as if that's a bad thing - I think and they would probably change their opinions after reading a background of Bert McCracken and his struggle with drugs so stop being a foolish, pea-brain critic and support some good music for a change - music is both the lyrics and the instruments - not instruments only.
