Lies for the Liars (2007) marked a significant milestone for The Used, becoming their fastest-selling album in the UK and securing the number 39 spot on the UK Albums Chart, while climbing even higher to number 5 on the US Billboard 200. Out of the 19 tracks recorded during the sessions, only 11 made the final cut. The Used leveraged the growing influence of MySpace, where they actively engaged with fans by posting demos like "Smother Me" and offering Lies for the Liars for early streaming, helping build anticipation. The combination of their online presence and the album's polished yet gritty sound solidified Lies for the Liars as a fan favorite, blending their signature post-hardcore style with experimental elements.
