WHO: THE USED
WITH: PLAIN WHITE T’S
WHAT: Emerging as a voice for the damaged masses in the early-2000s post-hardcore scene, Utah-bred rock group the Used connected to their audience with a potent mixture of feral rage and unabashed vulnerability. Their breakthrough platinum debut, The Used, gained popularity on both radio and MTV, bolstered by hit singles like “The Taste of Ink” and “Buried Myself Alive.” As their presence on the touring circuit increased, they hit a mainstream peak with 2004’s platinum In Love and Death and its follow-up, 2007’s Lies for the Liars. With each set, their sound evolved and bandmembers matured, reaching creative peaks on 2017’s The Canyon and 2020’s Heartwork. 2022 saw the emo icons issue the combative and celebratory “Fuck You” ahead of the arrival of their ninth long-player. The angsty and anthemic “People Are Vomit” appeared in early 2023, with Toxic Positivity arriving later.
Plain White T’s began their life as emo-tinged pop-punkers but it was a ballad that brought them stardom. “Hey There Delilah” turned into a smash hit, rocketing to the top of Billboard’s charts and defining the band as a melodic mainstream group. Yet, their earliest records and subsequent albums showed how Plain White T’s spent as much time playing highly charged punk-influenced rock as they did anthemic ballads. It was a potent combination that put Big Bad World and Wonders of the Younger on the Billboard 200; they spawned further hits like “1,2,3,4” and “Rhythm of Love.” Despite line-up changes, the group’s sound has remained grounded by singer Tom Higgenson‘s distinctive croon, as on American Nights,Parallel Universe, and 2023’s Plain White T’s.
