Used and Abused is a full-length album by the Seattle powerpop band Danger Radio. [1] [2] It was released on July 8, 2008, and spent one week on the Billboard 200, at number 198. [3]
The Daily Herald thought that "Danger Radio manipulates, squashes and expands synths to produce a high-energy beat fest with hooks that jump beyond catchy to addictive levels." [4]
AllMusic wrote that "snappy guitar and synth hooks abound, resting atop percolating grooves that push even the poppiest, most melodic tunes into dance-floor territory." [5]
