The wait for new music from The Used is over! Head over to ww.KROQ.com now to hear the first single 'I Come Alive' taken from the upcoming album "Vulnerable" out March 27th via their own label Anger Music Group partnered with Hopeless Records. The debut single will be available for purchase January 17th on iTunes.

With over 3 Million albums sold worldwide, The Used continue to create music that they stand behind 100%. "'I Come Alive' was the first song completed once we began writing this record. It sets up the album really well and I like how diverse and theatrical it is', says front man Bert McCracken.

The band chose to go back in the studio with Jon Feldman who had accompanied them on 2007's Lies for the Liars, 2004's In Love And Death, 2003's Maybe Memories and their debut self-titled album from 2002. Bassist Jeph Howard said working with Feldman on this album 'was very positive. We really went out and expanded on this album. I'm excited for it to be more then a typical Used record.'

Full track listing and cover art will be released later this month.

The band will be performing at Soundwave Festival in Australia next month. For dates and more information on The Used, check out: www.TheUsed.net
