The late hardcore band The Used (late ’cause they were once a decent hardcore band that ended-up watering down their screamo-selves) just released their new album “Artwork” today in the US and the UK, and they are hosting a listening party accessible through Twitter. The listening party enables anyone who tweets a pre-populated message via http://twitter.theused.net to stream the entire album, plus two exclusive tracks, for 24 hours. In other words, promote the band via twitter and get a daily-pass to check out their album.

It’s a nice promotion stunt despite the fact that teens apparently don’t tweet, and that that the average age of a Used fan is probably around 15 years old.
