In the latest episode of the Destroy All Lines interview series A Peek Behind The Lines, The Soundcheck's Tiana Speter catches up with Jepha from undisputed kings of the scene: The Used.


The Used will embark on their Australian 25th Anniversary Tour starting on August 7, offering an unforgettable experience for fans, with three nights in each city across Australia featuring a full album playthrough of the music they created that shaped the sound of early 2000s alternative rock. The celebration will highlight their first three albums performed in full: their self-titled record The Used (2002), In Love And Death (2004) and Lies For The Liars (2007).


As the band reaches a quarter-century milestone, these records are largely regarded as highly influential, and it is no wonder each of them has been certified either platinum or gold by the RIAA in the US, and sold over 10 million albums worldwide.


This August and September, join The Used and special guests Hands Like Houses and Heavenshe on selected dates celebrating 25 years of monumental rock down under, with back-to-back shows per city offering fans the chance to revisit the three albums that started it all!


And ahead of this huge tour, join Tiana with Jepha chatting revisiting songs that have long been dormant in a live setting, how the concept to bust out back-to-back nights grew its legs, and we get confirmation about vocalist's Bert McCracken's memories from the first ever The Used gig (and why the band cut back on gigging in the early years).
