The second studio album was released with the name “In love and death” and was named after the death of Bert McCracken’s girlfriend and his dog. In 2007 the live concert CD was released by “The Used” and this one broke all the records of popularity. Bert McCracken, Quinn Allman, Jeph Howard and Dan Whitesides are the present members of this band.
