The Used Release New Song and Lyric Video "Rise Up Lights"

The Used has released “Rise Up Lights,” the second track from their forthcoming album, The Canyon. The noisy super charged song picks up right away with singer Bert McCracken’s undeniable vocals and guitarist Justin Shekoski’s intense guitar power hitting you right in the face. Fans can check out the lyric video for this new track at http://smarturl.it/RiseUpLightsVideo as well as stream the song via Apple Music or Spotify.

The Canyon, due out October 27th on Hopeless Records and produced by Ross Robinson (The Cure, At The Drive In) is the most raw, unadulterated and personal piece of art the band has ever released. The band is offering limited edition pre-order only vinyl variants, t-shirts, and enamel pins for fans. To pre-order, visit smarturl.it/theusedmerch.

“Rise Up Lights” is the follow up single to the recently released “Over and Over Again,” which Loudwire called “an instantly memorable offering, a notion that is increased tenfold after watching this peculiar video.”
