New album due May 19th
The Used has shared their newest single “Numb” from their upcoming album Toxic Positivity, out May 19th via Big Noise. The track tackles the all-too-familiar sensation of feeling too much and nothing at all simultaneously. The reoccurring line – “does anybody else feel numb?” delivered in Bert McCracken’s passionate voice – is as much a reminder as it is a question, searching for reassurance that we aren’t alone in this feeling.
When asked, McCracken draws a parallel between the band’s 2020 track “To Feel Something” and their newest track: “I just wanna feel something. Anything is better than this. I just wanna feel something. No different from anyone else. Wanna waste my time but not like this at all. I just wanna feel something. No different from anyone else.”
“Cause I feel numb. Does anybody else feel numb?”
“Numb” is the first single from The Used’s new album Toxic Positivity. Over 20 years into their career, Toxic Positivity is everything fans have come to know and love from The Used – straightforward, in-your-face, destructive, and vulnerable all at once.
The Used has also recently released two no-holds-barred singles, “Fuck You” and “People Are Vomit.”
The band recently announced that they will be hitting the road with Pierce The Veil this summer on the Creative Control Tour. The epic co-headliner kicks off on May 23rd in Austin, TX, making stops across the US and Canada in Tampa, Toronto, Baltimore, New York, Grand Rapids, Irvine, and more before wrapping up in Phoenix, AZ on July 2nd with support from Don Broco, Deathbyromy, and Girlfriends supporting select dates.
