New blog, new entry, new life? O_o

Was dead bored so I made a blog... With a The Used layout!!!
I love The Used.














Say hi to The Used!! =)
Or they shall go to your homes and steal your pets.
Cause they know where you live...
The Used is a rock band from Utah. They have amazingly got 2 platinum albums already even though they're very vulgar so they won't ever be on your local radio.
If they ever are on your radio, every sentence shall be censored until you can't hear a single sentence properly.

You *--* liar!!
You *--* liar!!
Liar liar, Pants on fire
Hanging from a telephone wire

It doesn't just take the censored part man, all you need is the end of the song with Bert (the lead singer) singing the child nursery rhyme with a weird tune to give little kids and big babies nightmares for weeks. Now as you know, Malaysia practically censors EVERYTHING.

*In Yaoi manga, they just rip out pages that contain obscene parts to make you feel like burning them alive cause you wasted your money.
-
*They don't allow any anti-christ bands here. I know they're not excatly healthy, but if you don't like them, don't see them then. Some people still like them for their music.
-
*They closed a paper down for having an offending comic strip. The oldest paper in Sarawak too! Or it could be Sabah... I forgot. They still closed it down when they apologised. It's not like a paper actually checks the stupid comics anyways, they only write the articles. Forgive people la!! Now Sarawak (or Sabah) people have less news to read. And you call us uneducated, stupid government?!
(sorry that I have a hate towards the government, it's not like I really hate them..
I DESPISE them. I'm so full of hate towards them... So sorry anyways.)

Ok, back to The Used.

This is Bert, Kelly Osbourne's ex. Thank God Bert dumped her...=.=

















He is the lead singer of The Used (born February 25, 1982 in Orem, Utah), Real name is Robert Edward McCracken, better known as Bert.
This is Quinn, the guy who eats his boogers and never washes his hands.
















Beautiful picture isn't it?




(And just to get a better picture of his face...)


Quinn Allman, Guitarist of The Used, awesome riffist.
-He worked at McDonalds and at a golf course before.
-He was arrested for a number of times and some times for no good reason at all.
Next is Jepha!












Just makes you wanna say: " Aww... Poor guy..."
Jepha is one of the best pouters in the world!!! Brendon Urie is pretty good too, but Jeph draws more sympathy.
He's the bassist of The Used. (born Jepharee Michael Howard, January 4, 1979)
He is vegan and you shall vote for him as the sexiest vegan alive on PETA's website!!
I shall write random info on him cause he's just so adorable.
-His dog's name is Zelda.
-At the start of the band, he had... DREADLOCKS.
-He was a cook and a baker.
-Jeph was a fill in bassist for 30 seconds to Mars on The Tonight Show.
(30 seconds to Mars sang The Kill if you didn't know.)


Now for Dan.
He is the newest member of The Used. The awesome drummer.















Hard to find somemore pics since he's so new.
He replaced the former drummer, Branden Steineckert. I miss Branden... =(
But I like Dan anyways.


And just cause I like Branden soooooo much, I shall write about him even though he's not in the band anymore.


-
Branden Steineckert. Former drummer of The Used, current drummer of Rancid.

(Rancid is a great punk rock band if you didn't know, they've been around for quite some time now.)
A great song, Thunder by Boys Like Girls. They're not really famous, YET. But they shall soon enough.
And to write about local indie music, cause they need some love like international music too. =)
There's Reza Salleh from KL, and Stereomantic from Singapore.
Reza's Smoke City is a great acoustic song, and Stereomantic's I Can't Marry You is a sweet soft ballad that makes you go "Aww..." and not just Jeph's pic.




Here's Reza Salleh's smoke city. Hope everyone likes him and he gets more fanbase and he comes to Penang so the record stores can sell his albums.
