Get ready, Australia—emo/post-hardcore icons The Used are coming back in 2025, and they’re making it one for the history books. After teasing us with cryptic social media blackouts, festival posters, and Facebook ads, the band has finally confirmed their 25th-anniversary tour.
Starting in August, they’ll be hitting Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth—but this isn’t just your typical tour.
Here’s the kicker: each city gets three nights of The Used, with each night dedicated to one of their first three iconic albums. It’s a full dive into their early emo arsenal, a dream come true for diehard fans who’ve been screaming along since 2002.
The first night will feature their explosive debut album, The Used (2002), including classics like ‘The Taste of Ink’, ‘Buried Myself Alive’, and ‘Blue and Yellow’. The second night rewinds to In Love and Death (2004), delivering emo anthems like ‘Take It Away’, ‘I Caught Fire’, and ‘All That I’ve Got’. Finally, they’ll close each residency with Lies for the Liars (2007), featuring heavy-hitters like ‘Pretty Handsome Awkward’ and ‘The Bird and the Worm’.
