The Used is a pop punk band from Orem, Utah, United States. Their self-titled debut album The Used has so far sold nearly 200,000 copies and counting. The band later released Maybe Memories, a live album featuring the songs from their self-titled album and previously unreleased home demos that also included live footage and interviews on DVD. They released their second album In Love and Death through Warner Bros. Records, on September 28, 2004. Their third album is due out in 2006.
Relationship with My Chemical Romance
The Used is known to be very friendly with My Chemical Romance. The lead singer Gerard Way and Bert were rumored to have been particularly close (rumors of romance exist but are probably dismissable, having been spread mostly by fanfiction; however, the two have been known to kiss onstage). My Chemical Romance and The Used have covered "Under Pressure" (originally by David Bowie and Queen) in concert on multiple occasions. In recent months, the two lead singers of both bands seem to have had a fallout due to disagreements over the addition of "Under Pressure" to In Love and Death. Most of this evidence comes from an interview with Bert [1] and a recent song, so far unreleased, by My Chemical Romance entitled "Disenchanted (Shut Up and Play)". The dispute was settled, however, when Bert said in an article that he was "Just messing around". The two band's members are, to this day, good friends.
The two bands' version of "Under Pressure" was finally released online in 2005 for the Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
