PropertyOfZack is stoked to be posting a new interview with The Used that reviewer Jesse Richman conducted at this year’s SXSW Festival. In the interview, Jesse and the band discuss the release of Vulnerable, possible touring with Dance Gavin Dance, plans for the future, and more. Check out the great interview below!
Can you state your names in The Used?
Quinn: I’m Quinn I do guitar.
Bert: I’m Bert.
How were things at the showcase last night?
Bert: It was so good man. It was cool man, we don’t get a chance to do acoustic stuff very often so it was really exciting and new for us. Really a lot of love and a lot of positive music. How it should be: Music fans in love and smiles.
You guys have a couple other acoustic sets coming up, right?
Bert: Yeah, tomorrow we’re doing a couple. Doing the signings for us like we usually do gets a bit boring, so we’re going to do a few songs.
Beyond that, do you guys have touring plans? A US tour coming up?
Bert: Yeah, we’re doing a full headlining tour in May and we’re doing some stuff in the summer time.
Do you know who you’re going out with?
I think it might be Dance Gavin Dance.
POZ: Really?
Bert: Yeah, and they seem to be kind of blowing up right now. They’re like a prog-screamo-indie…
POZ: Yeah, I know them well. I don’t know who’s singing for them right now.
Bert: Yeah, I heard that it was a bit of a confusing thing. But I kind of dig it, and they were on the top of our list. It’s all up in the air right now, but we’ll see.
Vulnerable is coming out in a couple of weeks. You’ve got two singles that are out so far. How are people’s reactions to the singles?
Bert: I think really well.
Quinn: Yeah I think people really like it or are confused by it.
Bert: Yeah, in our new single “Hands And Faces” we have some vocal effects and stuff. People are “What’s this? I’m a fan of their first stuff!”
I know you guys have said you aren’t the biggest fans of Artwork anymore.
Bert: I’m probably the only one that’s said that. I don’t know how these guys feel about it. But it was really a negative record for me. I tried to make it very therapeutic, but it kind of backfired.
POZ: Took you to that place further instead?
Bert: Exactly. With Vulnerable, I really just needed to make something that could lift me up at all times and could inspire me the way that people should feel inspired by music. This is the record that I think we needed to write right now.
Do you go in when you’re writing thinking, “I want to write about these kinds of topics?” Or do you just do what flows?
Bert: Yeah, it all kind of flows but there is definitely something on the back of your mind at all times when you approach a song or approach writing.
