    Hooks never mattered to the Used anyway, so having a higher grade of execution helps underscore the Used's point, which ironically just makes the whole thing uglier and harder to take.

    He delivers overheated poetry like "As history gets lost and as I took that final breath, I felt alive," and his bandmates rock like shiny Satans.

    Turgid even for the genre, Artwork will make you hate yourself for singing along with tricky standouts like 'Empty With You.'
