Imaginary Enemy

The Used

A pivot toward anthemic, politically charged arena rock. Polished production meets a defiant spirit, trading feral screams for massive, melodic protest hooks.

Find on Amazon

The Used go full-blown protest rock with massive hooks and a stadium-sized sound.

A defiant and high-energy call to action that trades internal angst for external rebellion.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive, chant-along chorus of Revolution that feels designed for a stadium crowd.
The jagged, rhythmic guitar work in El-Oh-Vee-Ee that breaks the album's melodic flow.
The sprawling, atmospheric conclusion of Overdose that stretches into a long-form ambient fade.
