According to a Guitar World interview via Absolutepunk, one of the members said that this would be the first single off of their as-yet-untitled third album.

"All That I've Got" has to be one of the best songs evar. A stark contrast to the screamer that was "Take It Away".
I'm pumped for new material. It's about time.

I had wished for more concrete information on this, but I'm very excited nonetheless.
Except that Branden no longer drums for them. Boo... :'(
Last year, I had In Love and Death check in as my 12th favorite album of all time. Surprised the hell out of myself with that one. I didn't realize I loved it that much already.
Not buying one of those "Bert Is My Homeboy" t-shirts while they were around is an unfortuntate missed opportunity for me.

I just woke up one day with the desire to hear another The Used album and wondered what they'd been up to lately, and I was pumped to find out that their new album's release will coincide with the 2007 Taste Of Chaos tour, which they're co-headlining (with 30 Seconds To Mars, of course...like I really need to see them again).

Sweeeet. I can't wait to hear new stuff from them. The Used rocks! Them and Finch are the two bands that really got me into the screamo genre in the first place back in 2003 I believe, but unfortunately Finch is no more :'(

A new 30 second clip of this can be heard on the band's MySpace page at www.myspace.com/theused Is everyone as f**king psyched for this new album as I am?

Most of their songs sound good at first to me, but get boring/annoying after a while. "The Taste of Ink" has stood the test of time better for me than any of their later singles, though "Blue and Yellow" wasn't bad either.

Can't tell much about the song from those 30 seconds. I'd argue that, despite my calm tone, I may be more "psyched" for this album than you are. A year ago, I shocked myself to realize that In Love and Death was my 12th favorite album of all-time. Already. I'm currently in the (sl-o-o-o-w) process of making this year's list. Anyway, that album should've done for them what Three Cheers did for My Chem. Bafflingly, it didn't. It'll be interesting to see if there's much difference without Branden now, but I've been patiently looking forward to this. (I'll probably have to buy Berth next month.)

The quality, let's be honest here, sucks, and I can barely tell anything about those songs from what little actually cuts through.

The new album is going to be called Lies For The Liars. Did anyone know that yet or is this "new" news?

It can now be heard at this magical link us.video.aol.com/audio.full.adp?mode=0&pmmsid=1870999I think its good, but I don't know if it was a good first single choice considering they had screamers like A Box Full Of Sharp Objects and Take It Away in the past first.

It took My Chemical Romance four and a half minutes to do what the Used did in less than two...create a melodramatic, epic-sounding song, without sounding overly pretentious.

If you are talking about "Black Parade", it was well over 5 minutes.

epic? you use that word way to loosely. this is NOT epic by any stretch of the imagination. this sounds like a whiney b-side inspired by Nightmare Before Christmas
