MCR Work On New Album

After all the hype over his recent engagement announcement, Gerard Way has shared with Kerrang! magazine that his band, My Chemical Romance plan to start working on a new album, the follow-up to The Black Parade.

"It feels like it’s about the right time to be making a new record,” says Way. “Maybe that’s because 'The Black Parade’ was talked about for so long before it was released, but it feels like that album’s been out for a long time now. It’s only been eight months but we’re already on our fourth single and we’ve played a lot of shows.

"'The Black Parade’ was the kind of record that you make but don’t necessarily have a burning desire to perform because its creation was almost the point,” he adds. “It was such an intense experience to make it, that there was almost a feeling of wanting to move on as soon as we released it. It was so artistically ambitious that it made us want to keep on creating."

Lolololol @ My chem. It wasn't really that artistically ambitious. I mean, it takes years to understand everything about a Tool album, its complex in more that Just music. Aphex twin also. But seriously?? I saw them live anyway, because Thursday supported, and to be honest, they were Average. They are not artistic atall. And the whole gimmick of coming out on a stretcher is kinda pathetic.

I really hope i don't have to listen to My Chem on the radio and MTV everytime i turn it on, like i have been for the past year.

I think they're cool, I hope their live show is good cause I'll be at projekt Revo. I dunno about them making a new album already, but I guess by the time everything is finish it'll prolly be almost 2 years since the black parade was released.

[PastaOfMuppets]

Well if Ray does more guitar work and solos etc then it will be pretty cool.
Not too big on MCR though, Gerard's voice is rather hit and miss.

[powerchordjunki]

ugh in ten minutes we all know this is gonna turn into a bash fest, because some people can't respect a band who has fans they don't like or a style of music the have a distaste to. well before you start to dis, just think about this, where's your record deal and when was ur last world tour?


and im quite happy for the next album, it should be interesting to see if they stay with the newer style they have or if they go back to three cheers... still pumped tho

[Captian Xero]

I'm stoked for it. I don't care what you guys think, I dig MCR.

I hope the mods are in a good mood today.

[Tool_46n2]

Just because you have a record deal and do world tours doesn't mean you're good. There are thousands of musicians better than half the people out there these days who just sit at home and can't get noticed because they live in the middle of nowhere.

[Children Of War]

them being with their creativeness...I can predict the newest album name...

"The Black Parade v0.2"

[catchtherainbow]

they're gonna break up soon..you know it when bands release albums too fast..

Exactly, that stupid song called "umbrella" or peter aundre and jordan... they have record deals and millionaires, but it doesnt mean they are good.

[Kereth]

I care. I loved The Black Parade. And to say it's not artistic is quite stupid. They didn't just stick to one influence of music in their latest album... they had Spanish Sounding riffs/vocal melodies, a blues/country influence (as heard in Teenagers, their latest single) and even went eastern with their wartime epic 'Mama'.

The fact of the matter is that My Chemical Romance are evolving in their musical style... something that I respect. Instead of sticking with the same old tried and tested formula, they push the boat out and go for something epic and new. It was a good achievement, and I hope the next album continues evolving and is even better.

[xXBlack_PickXx]

not that i like them.

but for who do like them.

their compromising quantity for quality

[Alex101]

Cool! I'm excited for the new album, I'm gonna get that when it's out.

[Kinderfeld]

I didn't really like The Black Parade much. I hope the next record is more like Three Cheers.

[Jonjy2]

Ughh....Not more MCR

*Calls personal hitman*

[Ultimate_Taffy]

See I can totally see why people can defend MCR, their music does obviously appeal to people, admittedly the type of people are those who are say 12 and cut themselves cos it's cool.

But no one and I really defy anyone try proove me wrong can defend Gerrard Way for when he shaved his hair and dyed it just so he could look like a cancer patient. Before any of you fans scream oh no but the black parade was about dying of cancer. so what?! That does not give him the right to do that, if someone in the street had done that they would have got a smack.

So in conclusion my children I will not be running post haste to the nearest music store for this album unless it comes with free gerrard way punchable doll.

[last_biscuit]

"‘The Black Parade’ was the kind of record that you make but don’t necessarily have a burning desire to perform..."

Well, I for one am not encouraging them to perform it.
Anyway, what a downer to put on my day Looks like more chefs need paying to 'accidentally' give them food poisoning...

[last_biscuit]

^^ Oh and agreed with Ultimate_Taffy, that's a very good point.

[RageAgainst...]

i wish ray toro would just cut all of his ties from this band...as long as he's in MCR he's going to be stuck wasting his talent on crappy generic music. it's just a shame IMO because he has more talent then the rest of that band put together

[DaveGilmour1189]

awww dam.

Why can't these guys be like green day and sit on their success for 4 years before making another album. WOuld save my ears.

[duncang]

Hmm...I get the feeling the next one will be more of a Three Cheers style album, from this it looks like The Black Parade was kind of a one-off experiment which is a shame because there were some great songs on there.

I can see the headline now...

"Jealousy Runs Rampant On Ultimate-Guitar.com"

"Thousands of Metalhead elitist, and other people with their heads so far up "where the sun don't shine" have posted comments on a article that UG has posted on the band My Chemical Romance, showing their hatred for the band. One man even as far as to say...

Too much free time, go home

[guitarded420]

dude you have the sense of humor of a 15 year old, which explains your man-love of MCR. i think its quite explicable why people hate them. they suck. but id rather you go on liking them, and you can fall into obscurity with them once their trendy ways arent cool anymore.
but i guess im just jealous.

I may like to point out there is a difference between a band sucking and you not liking them.

Im sick of people flaming MCR. I don't like their music i will admit teenagers was catchy, but just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to go

OMG MCR SUCK. or THEY ARE NOT MUSICALLY TALENTED.

Cause look at the facts here they are selling records and you are not.

Nobody gives a crap what you think this is the internet like no one gives a crap at what i think so don't think i won't sleep at night because you said you hate them because i don't care.

In some aspects i agree with you. They will not be as popular when they aren't "cool" no more but its not like people on this forum don't do that with other bands

*cough RHCP, RATM and everything else which has become popular*

Sure i'm sure i will see a rise in zeppelin fan numbers because they got back together.

[sofubar]

The MCR haters come like a fat kid to cake, why are they looking here anyway if they dislike MCR so much?

Anyway, good to hear. Should be another good'un.

I like MCR i dont care what anyone says

They both are now. I really like MCR, I have for years, and I don't care what people say, I think it'll be another awesome album.

[GuitarSymphony]

I'm sorry, but this is rediculous. Some years ago everyone was bashing good charllotte and simple plan because their stuff was so simple and everyone saw them as 'no talent'. Now you have MCR in the equation who actually have solos and leads, who experiment with several different types of music, who've studied brilliant musical artists from the past, and who I thought took a dam good shot at making a good album. The album artwork was impressive and very creative.

I like MCR. Telling people they are wrist slitters who listen to MCR is like saying: "Hey, lets go be really immature and make people feel bad about music they listen too!"

C'mon guys, music isn't about your biased war.

[gtautumn7x]

ehhh...im not a big mcr fan...love their old shit..but if they wanna make another album just leave em...you dont have to listen to it.

[Fly-swatter]

has anyone noticed that every little 12 year old kid that decides they like rock music have a Black parade shirt? poor misguided children if you ask me...kids! get into real bands like Metallica! etc

[The Eyebrow]

ah yes, the incredible predictability. something appears about MCR, and withing minutes the page is full of insults. how very, very typical.

i'm a fan of MCr, but i'm not 12, i don't cut myself, one of my favourite bands is the berzerker for heavens sake! can't you just give 'em a break? let them make an album - you don't have to listen to it.

[Jawkster]

well i care because i like them, you going to call me or the badn a fag now? pfft.

[Pedalboard]

seriously? God, i really hope this is good or the tiny respect i have for them now is gone for good.

[The Eyebrow]

and surely the fact that they're on the UG home page shows that they're doing something for the guitar world, no?

[Fly-swatter]

not at all there is news of Axl Rose getting hit by a drink...what does that have to do with the guitar world? it's music news.

[echofreak]

my chemical romance has a bad image. they have made leaps and bounds on the black parade from their earlier albums. they are trying to evolve and make better music they deserve some respect.

[IDon'tLoveYou]

Wooh! New Album would be good. I kinda played The Black Parade to death already :S. lmao

[hokiecmo]

I liked The Black Parade, in face, it's one of my favorite albums, but their old stuff is no good. I'll give the new album a shot, more than likely.

[5250]

I'm way too old to be a MCR "fan" so to speak. However, I must admit that these guys are pretty talented. I'm impressed.

[Next.Frank.Iero]

yAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!

IM SOOOO Happy.
Hopefully it will be as good as three cheers

How can you compare RHCP and RATM to my chemical romance. I don't spend my spare time bashing on MCR but i really just don't like their music. Even still, i don't think anyone with any sense can compare a band which has been together for 6 years to a band which has been a staple in rock music for the last 20+ years like RHCP has been. And you can't compare them to a band with the kind of energyg that RATM brings to the table with all of their songs. you just can't. i can honestly say that i gave MCR a chance, i listened to 3 cheers and i listened to the black parade. after going through the 2 albums song by song i failed to see what is so special about them. Ray Toro is very talented but otherwise their just mediocre musicians who write songs which are sure to get them airplay on MTV. And now that they are so quickly turning around and starting another album it's obvious that they are trying to capititalize on their popularity while they still can instead of taking their time to actually make a good album.

Don't EVER compare RHCP to MCR, RHCP have been going on for years and they have many different styles of music in their music. I listened to teenagers cos a friend recommended it, i'm open to all kinds of music, BUT THAT SONG SUCKED. Nyways on my original point RHCP will never be some kind of trend while MCR i won't be surprised if death metal became a trend and they tried to copy it. RHCP>MCR

[The_Paranoia]

Well, I'm happy. The Black Parade could of been better but I liked it. Can't wait for this one.

Oh and Str84ever, I have the right to say they have no talent because they don't.
Me and my best mate are inifinitely more talented than either of the guitarists, and prbably the drummer/bassist too - even though we dont play the instruments.

Shut up, Ray Toro is a VERY good guitar player. he doesn't get the respect he deserves becuase he plays in a band which doesn't let him showcase his talents but it is still very obvious that he is very talented. he is the only person in that band who i think is actually in it for the music too but whatever that's just my opinion. to sofubar... there are plenty of bands out their who are more talented then MCR who will never get as popular as MCR is. MCR plays very radio friendly music so they get airplay, that doesn't mean they are good. i would think most people would know that but i guess not...

[jxmxaxn]

I get so mad when i see people bashin MCR. Yeah they arent the best band in the world, but they really arent that bad.

Give it a chance. And if you see the bandwagon coming down the street you dont HAVE to jump on and bash MCR.

[IronfistGuy]

Well, despite their live show being pretty poor, MCR's albums tend to make good listening. So this is mostly good news, I guess.

[saad_nirvana]

I like MCR's Guitarist...

i just dont respect the music they make...

I hate emo, I hate poor guitar licks and dumb-ass songs, but still I tend to like MCR, I can't help it, anyone has a remedy?

[xrawrockkillsx]

How do you know he is good then? HUH?

MCR is crap.

Because you can tell how good he is now, and how much better he would be if mcr were more about the guitar and less about gerard... listen to Teenagers or Dead!or listen to stuff that they dont put on albums... listen to their Jack the Ripper cover, and tell me he isnt good.

its really quite pathetic of you to come and say you hate a band for absolutely no reason.

I used to like MCR. Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge was a decent album. But the new stuff, I never got into, the music just doesn't appeal to me anymore. This is easily an album I'll skip.

[ianto666]

the thing here is theres always someone here always got too rant on how crap a band is .... zzzzz ... i love how MCR wind ppl up and i hope this new album keeps on annoying frustrating everyone who rants about them on here

RADIO FRENDLY = MY TYPE OF BAND

[LookAlive]

People who rant are just jealous because the kids on Myspace don't love them, that's all.

[jeowy]

"you brought me your bullets" was a good album musically, but the lyrics and vocals, in my opinion, were too whiney and ruined the whole concept.

"three cheers" was also a good album, in the fact there were some catchy licks, it was quite an original style, and there was still some intelligence musically, and now additionally musically. "im not ok" just let the album down and was pretty much solely responsible for the gigantic incline of the "emo kid" style.

"black parade" was a mediocre album. sharpest lives, i disappear, and famous last words were the only very good songs, only 1 of which got made into a single. "i dont love you" is arguably the worst song on the album - a testament to why everyone hates so-called "sell out" bands.

im gonna try this new album, and i think most other people with an on-the-fence-view of mcr should try it too. it might be shit, it might be great, but if youve already decided from the black parade than its gonna be a crap album then you might miss out on something really good.

[clazz]

I doubt it'll be as good as The Black Parade, because it's pretty unbeatable. I'll be very impressed if they top it.

[yeller56]

You want artistic buy a Tool album. MCR just knows that "The Black Parade" was a failed attempt to mimic American Idiot. In summary they just slacked and are trying to make up for it.

[Vintage_Axe]

poor misguided children if you ask me...kids! get into real bands like Metallica!

dude need i remind u of st. anger =P in which is equivalent to ur view on the black parade

[LewisMasonx]

If you say "MCR suck", then you're an idiot, if you say "I dislike MCR", then you're smarter. It's all down to opinion.

Seems like whenever there's news about MCR, all the haters come on like "OMFG LTS GO BSH SUM MCRZZ LOLL!!11one!1!" Do you all have nothing better to do? Go and talk about bands you like instead of bashing ones you don't, it proves you have the maturity of a four year old.

[mathieupM13]

I hope the next album sounds more like 3 cheers for sweet revenge

[Grave_Heart]

I hate the phrase "sell outs". If I was offered millions of pounds to do something I loved, and all I had to do in return is make sure there were a few poppier songs on my next album, I wouldn't be able to sign fast enough, and I'm sure half the people here would to.

As for the daft git who said that we should listen to Metallica: I like Metallica, if you're gonna talk sell out *cough*St Anger!*cough*file sharing!*cough*. This is the band that used to hand out free demos and said they wud never fall into the capitalist trap that is the music industry.

And finally: Gerard Way actually cut his hair to shock people because they were used to seeing him with long black hair.

People who rant are people with an opinion that are expressing it. We're supposedly all musicians here, expression is something you should be familiar with.

MCR just knows that "The Black Parade" was a failed attempt to mimic American Idiot.

Just out of interest, how were they trying to mimc American Idiot? It's very different musically and lots of bands have done concept albums.

[yeller56]

They changed they're image and concept albums about rebellion and trying to do this "Anthem" shit that has been done all too much before. The reference to American Idiot was meant to be an example.

[JoeBender]

I really liked their first album, but after hearing Welcome to the Black Parade I wasn't exactly sold on the new one... I didn't understand how sounding like a parade was a GOOD thing exactly. But yeah, anyway, good for them, when Three Cheers was out none of my friends knew about em but now they all love MCR for The Black Parade! >_>

Chyeah! But I like the wait personally It makes me want it more lol

[hehepupitre]

I'm sick and tired of hearing the argument "They're selling records and you're not, thus they must be good. That pisses me off. An effing monkey can sell a record if he wanted to. I respect everyone that likes them, each to their own, I'm not going to judge you on the music you like. But MCR has very little, if any talent. Just because you can play power chords and write catchy melodies doesn't mean you're talented, it just means that you appeal to 12 year old kids. All of the kids these days are trying to be "artsy" by listening to popular bands and drinking starbucks. You're not artsy, you're pretentious. That's it. Also, people put down metal all the time. "Oh you damn kids with your weed and long hair, you're just trouble." Metal has been stereotyped since the beginning of time and while I can't understand what is being said in the new black/death metal music, they are talented with their instruments. Metal artists are some of the most talented musicians in the world, not saying other artists aren't talented.

[hehepupitre]

Oh and also, Tool is amazing. Art at its finest. I'm still trying to understand everything in Lateralus.

I love mcr, i'll admit, this time last year, they were one of my most hated bands, but my sister said that i'd like the black parade, I gave it a shot, and i fell in love wih mcr. They are an amazing band, and while they may not have tool or rhcp levels of talent, they are good musicians who play good music.

Also, people compare mcr to the likes of fallout boy, good charolette all amaerican rejects ect. These bands sound nothing like mcr (maybe old fallout boy) they dont have the same semi-deep lyrical meanings or the guitar solos. Bands like that arent emo, they are pop-"punk" and they are the ones that should be shot, not mcr, who are constantly evolving and trying new things and consistantly putting out good material, and who also put on pretty good shows.
For the bashers(most of whom havent even listened to mcr outside of what gets played on mtv): give honey this mirror isnt big enough for the both of us, or thank you for the venom a chance...if not, the you are missing out on some great music.

Brng on the new album!

Elitism isn't cool...let someone like what they want and get on with your life. I don't see why people feel the need to post on these articles when they have such a dislike for the band said article is about...I mean, are you just trying to instigate shit?

That said, I personally don't feel either way on this band, glad they're putting out more records and all, but I won't be buying them.

[andrex1212]

Pretty pathetic how so many of you who clicked on this are ripping on My Chem, and to those who say "who cares that there is a new album", why'd you click the link then? Anyways, I am hoping it will be another good album. The first 2 were much better than The Black Parade though in my opinion.

people are so gay

just cuz u dont like it doesnt mean it sucks. i personally dont give a shit wether u like them or not, but how many of you have released any amount of albums that have went platinum? double platinum? some people think its horrible, but thats just cuz it doesnt fall in the scope of ur tastes. yall just dont get it.

on the new album, i hope it lives up to their first album. hell, even their second album was good. but the black parade was just too far for them.

[Grave_Heart]

yeller56 :
They changed they're image and concept albums about rebellion and trying to do this "Anthem" shit that has been done all too much before. The reference to American Idiot was meant to be an example.

I can see your point, but you've got to consider the context that the album is written in. The concept isn't about rebellion, it's about the last thoughts of a dying man. The parade reference comes from when he is dying, his last living memory is of his childhood, when his father took him to a parade, and that is the form death takes when it comes to him.

[Grave_Heart]

Tab-O-rama :Good is subjective

Thank you! Does it really matter what kind of music you are into? There is obviously something there that appeals to a certain group of people, so just let the rest get on with it. I don't like Westlife, but millions of people do, so they must have some appeal that I just don't understand.

[j-e-f-f-e-r-s]

GuitarSymphony :
I'm sorry, but this is rediculous. Some years ago everyone was bashing good charllotte and simple plan because their stuff was so simple and everyone saw them as 'no talent'. Now you have MCR in the equation who actually have solos and leads, who experiment with several different types of music, who've studied brilliant musical artists from the past, and who I thought took a dam good shot at making a good album. The album artwork was impressive and very creative.

for me the problem was it was so obvious who they were 'influenced' by. Musically it just screamed Queen, and visually the Beatles did the same concept with Sgt Pepper's over 40 years ago. Say what you will, but I find it hard to believe can be described as an experimental band. My opinion though, so who gives...?

i think sweet cheers was the best album and the black parade didnt really do it for me, some catchy songs but wasnt the world war thing done by metallica in the song 'one'? well if u dont like them then dont bother posting a comment

[Kilimacory]

YEEEEESSSSS!!!!!
love mcr.
rock on

[kaptink]

Will they just copy pink floyds the wall on this one too?

[pratt121]

The sign of an extremely trendy band is that they're trying to get out all the albums they can before people start to forget about them.

And artistic ambition has nothing to do with artistic success. Wearing eye-liner and being angsty isn't "epic" in the same way other bands are, even other bands that MCR has listed as a huge influence. I give them the fact that they are a cut above Fallout Boy or Panic! At the Disco musically, but they're still one of those bands that's more worried about that melodramatic spectacle than playing anything with REAL emotion.

Whatever, I don't listen to MCR, they're okay but they're just too flashy for my taste.

I may like to point out there is a difference between a band sucking and you not liking them.

Im sick of people flaming MCR. I don't like their music i will admit teenagers was catchy, but just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to go

OMG MCR SUCK. or THEY ARE NOT MUSICALLY TALENTED.

Cause look at the facts here they are selling records and you are not.

Nobody gives a crap what you think this is the internet like no one gives a crap at what i think so don't think i won't sleep at night because you said you hate them because i don't care.

In some aspects i agree with you. They will not be as popular when they aren't "cool" no more but its not like people on this forum don't do that with other bands

*cough RHCP, RATM and everything else which has become popular*

Sure i'm sure i will see a rise in zeppelin fan numbers because they got back together.

Don't EVER compare RHCP to MCR, RHCP have been going on for years and they have many different styles of music in their music. I listened to teenagers cos a friend recommended it, i'm open to all kinds of music, BUT THAT SONG SUCKED. Nyways on my original point RHCP will never be some kind of trend while MCR i won't be surprised if death metal became a trend and they tried to copy it. RHCP>MCR

Well sadly you failed to realise what i was getting at. I was not comparing MCR and RHCP. I was comparing the fans of the bands.

That people are saying people only like MCR because its cool which is the same reason why some people like RHCP and RATM.

GodivaMan you are seriously ignorant you don't have the right to say anything.

Anyone that says they suck without backing it up deserves a slap.

There is a difference between a band sucking i.e. not being able to play their instruments being musically incapable and disliking a band cause of their music.

I dislike RHCP but they make good music, i accept that.

Come to accept that you don't like MCR and that other people do.

There is far too many people on this forum who hate on popular music because it is cool to do so.

I listen to unpopular music i could probably name bands that people have never heard of or a select few on this forum would have heard of but i still appreciate other music.

Theres far to many people with their heads up their asses in this forum.

Im sick of seeing stuff like:

This song doesn't have a solo, it is shit.
I hate this band because their popular

etc.

Just because something is different to what you like doesn't mean its bad.

[RabidBeaver]

I dont think RHCP have many styles they have good songs and coudl make a kicka ss greatest hits but i cant listen to a whole cd by them. I dont liek MCR though.

[yawn]

Man, it's so sad how immature UG is. Makes me want to leave. >

[last_biscuit]

"It feels like it’s about the right time to be making a new record,”

That's really not the right reason to make a record. It doesn't matter if the record is released 8 months after the previous one, or a few years (within reason...I'm not promoting a Chinese Democracy idea here lol). What matters is the quality of the music. Which, in my opinion, is also lacking.

Once again, there are a few people that disgust me in this thread. It's okay to not like a band, and It's okay to say so, but really, there are plenty of ways to say it without saying you wish the band all died horribly and trash like that.

Also, +1 to whoever said they need to focus more on Ray's guitar work, and I'm looking forward to a more punk record next time, closer to Three Cheers.

And the whole gimmick of coming out on a stretcher is kinda pathetic.

I really hope i don't have to listen to My Chem on the radio and MTV everytime i turn it on, like i have been for the past year.

Tool isn't that artistically ambitious either. They would not be as mainstream as they are if they were. They are definitely better than a lot of mainstream bands and have talent, but they aren't that complex. Neither is MCR, but i do have to say their music writing ability is pretty good comparatively, but also that that CD was probably only "artistically ambitious" compared to their own stuff. That's just my view. Also they aren't very good live, so they lose a lot of credit there.

im guessing that MCR are going 2 change their sound again for this album because the last 2 albums were totally different which i cant understand and yes other bands change but they do it well like kings of leon fall out boy and stuff. but for MCR it just didnt work three cheers for sweet renvege was so much better than the black parde but i do like couple of the songs

mcr were better in their other two albums coz they were much more energetic dont u think?, if their next album is like that it shld be ace but if its more like the black parade it mite suk a bit

[apbell52]

i used to be a really big MCR fan, but with each cd that they push out, i like them less and less. I dont think they will be able to top their first two

Cool i hope it's as good as the last.

oh noo why..
oh wel
i hope they do download again next year... just so i can bottle them!!

[John_was_here]

I personally have to agree with everybody who is defending MCR... I'm not a huge fan but I'm not embarrassed to admit I consider myself a fan... I won't change the station if I here it on the radio for example... and ya I'm only 16 but I don't cut my wrists, I don't wear make up, don't straighten my hair or any of that shit, so don't assume all MCR fans are a bunch of cross dressing puzzies, or a majority of them for that matter... I also will admit that when I first heard black parade I was like f*ck I wanna learn this... and I did and its one of my favourite songs to play at the moment... I just like it... now sure Glasgow Kiss is still way more fun to play but meh... its pretty good. And ya I'm a huge Rush and Dream Theatre fan too so I say all you people need to grow the f*ck up and spend some time actually playing your guitar instead of wasting time making fun of some band that you think sucks. (now you might point out that I'm typing in here so I'm being hypocritical, but I have a guitar in my hands and came on this site to learn a song, and then the MCR ad caught my eye... so SUCK IT)... anywhos... Have a good one eh

[Joey Radical]

Not that I like them or anything, but it's good that they want to give their fans more.

[urdad]

of course every other teenager who thinks they're "punk rock" listen to mcr...its just a trend it will die(not the band) hopefully

[kalamari]

come on man!! how can my chemical romance compare to dream theater! there's nothing musically interesting in them, thats the reason i listen to dream theater, soundgarden, radiohead, led zeppelin etc because there is always something interesting in it instead of something predictable and done for the sake of it... i wouldn't consider myself elitist, it's just i prefer to look for good music instead of accepting what record labels push on us

[Jordz_antler1]

i agree that some of MCR's songs are good, generaly a
7/10 band - compare them to the artists that work long on hard on their songs or are just naturaly skilled (led zeppelin, ACDC, Metallica) and you soon see why they can't be called brilliant.

the only reason i don't listen to them is due to their song themes and titles.

browsing through thier tracks i saw such titles as:
"YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DO TO GUYS LIKE US IN PRISON"
"HELENA"
and
"Drowning Lessons"

now, i don't know about you - but as a straight male the one about prison doesn't appeal to me.

i don't know who helena is, so why would i want to hear a song about her?

and i don't need Drowning Lessons, so i don't need to hear a song about it...

but i could see why other people would be drawn to such songs - and a new album is fine as long as they can sustain a decent quality.

it might be because i'm not a 14 year old kid who thinks i have it bad because my mum only bought me 6 games for my new ps3 and i wanted 7.

so congratulations on the new album, sure it will be a belter.

[GuitarHero1081]

I'm sick and tired of you MCR bashers bashing on MCR like this!!! i mean, this is really immature, if you dont like MCR, then why do you insist on clicking news about MCR and making sh*t about them?! grow up everyone bashing MCR

personally, i cant wait for the new album

[Aidy Damage]

A new album already? They haven't released a single duff album yet, so this should be great!

I really don't have a problem with bands who play the kind of music i dont like. However I do have a problem with bands who rip off other bands (in this case Pink floyd and Queen being the main victims) and become successful through someone elses work. It seems unfair that when their are original and talented bands out there who struggle to make a living out of playing, that bands like MCR should become so successful.

A little tip for MCR fans who wish to be respected on this site, go and listen to the bands that influenced / were copied by MCR. You'll get much more out of these bands than MCR who are to be fair not talented enough to be a tribute band, and whats more, you wshould hopefully start to see the error of your ways.

[paper shredder]

You are horribly mistaken if you think Tool is not artistically ambitious or very talented. They, unlike MCR, put out quality work. They don't rush their music so they can make money before they 'fall out of style'. They make their music the way they love and the are mainstream because they are so good.

MCR is not very good by the way, and to the people who say dont read the page if you're going to bash it are the people who like them but can't but up a valid defensive point.

I read this to see it there was some hope left in them, but apparently not.

Kudos to Ray. But im sorry MCR should just give it up.

[Nirvana_RATM2]

^ Yes me too , MCR if by far not the worst , by far not the best out either but like I said Nickelback , Fall out boy , and then this its good. I dont think that they ripped Queen off , its called "influence"...

Guess what? Some people DON'T LIKE METAL. You got that? Get it through your thick skulls that not everyone likes bands like Metallica, Slayer etc. (I love Slayer and Metallica by the way)

Also, I don't like MCR at all, but I respect them for the progress they've made in the music industry.

Thanks, glad to hear there are some metal fans that appreciate a good band's progress.

And don't get me wrong, I love Metallica and Megadeth and Iron Maiden and Anthrax and all that stuff. I just don't like Slayer, and I don't like ignorance.

MCR ownes. Cant wait for the new album !

when will they ever learn they can't make acceptable guitar music that real guitarists can appreciate?

And by the way, MCR are far from emo. Not that Emo is bad but maybe you should be less ignorant.

Lmao!!!! Happened the other way round for me! Grew out of metallica and into MCR. No joke.

I think the idea of 'scene' is unavoidable when any conversation involving MCR arises. Personally I can't stand scene kids (that includes indie scene, etc as well (even though I'm a fan of bands from the genre)) but MCR are by no means a scene band. I've seen clips where Gerard Way damn near reproaches a whole audience of these type of people for barely having heard of morrisey. They're just a good band, with good songs, is that so hard to accept? If you can't accept it, that's fine, but don't bother other people with it. I don't go on deftones articles and have a go at them (and I'd have much more of a viable cause to.)

Im sick of all you pissy MCR fans pulling out this argument. Record companies take bands on that will generate huge flows of income with music that 90% of MCR deadheaded fans buy because its trendy.
There are far better bands than MCR, both technically and musically.
The Black Parade was shit. I dont care how many genre types they cover, all that matters is whether the songs are good or not, what they produced was a bunch of crap catchy music.

Seriously. Listen to what you just said. First of all you placed importance on technicallity, which isn't really that important if you consider great bands such as the clash etc, weren't exactly what you'd call very "technical".
And to counter your weak statement in exactly the same manner: The Black Parade was great, it doesn't matter how many genre types they cover, you're right; all that matters is whether the songs are good or not, and they're f**king brilliant.

Appearance shouldn't matter to music, dude. I hate how GWAR dresses at shows and how gay Slipknot looks in all masks, but I'm trying to get into GWAR and I've actually got a few 'Knot songs that I like. Give bands a chance despite how they look. Plus MCR is better than most bands out there despite what you say. There may be better bands out there, but there sure as hell are worse bands.

[rtbsmgsmf]

you know i'm not afraid to say i do like MCR. the black parade was good but got old fast and i do agree with the fact they needed faster and harder stuff like on three cheers. it was more raw and not overproduced. i liked the i guess you would call "darker MCR" and no i'm not 13 and i'm not emo i just am open-minded and dont bash on people for how they look and on stereotypes

[naftish66]

[Im_Not_The_Same]

people need to understand that everybody has their personal choices in music. not everyone is gonna like the same music.

some people like that umbrella and lip gloss song

you may like Slayer and Tool

and i like My Chemical Romance and The Used

just deal with it, its everyones personal choice. this is the music out now, so we're gonna listen. and we can decide for ourselves if we like it.

anyways im pumped for a new album. a bit quick, but if they think its right, its right.

[Leonheart]

Neat. Maybe I'll check it out.

i liked gerard better with short hair like in the I don't love you music video, and i don't mind his hair in helena, but the picture linking to this makes him look like a trucker on drugs.

I forgot to add to my previous statment that i will give their lead guitarist credit. Where he's at now he' is fairly good but he needs to drop that band a.s.a.p if he wants credit he deserves.

[Macbethstx]

So let me get this strait, Tool's cool because they love the music they write, but I guess MCR hates the music they write therefore they suck. The guys in MCR write music that they want they aren't being "controlled" by a record company and forced to write what MTV wants. If you don't enjoy a band all you have to do is not listen to them, you people complain about OH GOD NO NOT ANOTHER MCR ALBUM, but how does this really affect you at all if you don't listen to them. Even if MCR stopped making albums like you are praying to god for, you really think MTV and the radios are gonna start playing Tool 24/7? How does this music possibly negatively affect your lives at all? Funny how you complain about the emo pussies, but you can't even deal with MCR making another album without crying and bitching like the pathetic pussies you are.

[Toaster Pastry]

Huh. It seems kind of early to be planning a new album, but whatever works for them, I guess. I'm still not going to buy it. They're not terrible or anything, but they're not really original enough for me to bother with them.

and im quite happy for the next album, it should be interesting to see if they stay with the newer style they have or if they go back to three cheers... still pumped tho

You don't need a record contract or a tour to know good music - and this just ain't it. It's just more "emo" scene music that's going to make the label rich.

[tirryn]

Why all the hate? lol. MCR's pretty cool. (guess that means i'm emo =]) no seriously, Black parade was very classic-y throw backish in terms of the guitar, with lots of bluesy and pentatonic stuff, which was cool. new album would be sweet. a little early, but it will take a while to make most likely. I don't believe in judging anything by the way it looks or how other people view it. If you aren't into MCR that's cool, but you don't have to negatively express your opinion or bash them. yay new album. keep it real.

I respect everyone that likes them, each to their own, I'm not going to judge you on the music you like. But MCR has very little, if any talent. Just because you can play power chords and write catchy melodies doesn't mean you're talented, it just means that you appeal to 12 year old kids. All of the kids these days are trying to be "artsy" by listening to popular bands and drinking starbucks. You're not artsy, you're pretentious. That's it. Also, people put down metal all the time. "Oh you damn kids with your weed and long hair, you're just trouble." Metal has been stereotyped since the beginning of time and while I can't understand what is being said in the new black/death metal music, they are talented with their instruments. Metal artists are some of the most talented musicians in the world, not saying other artists aren't talented.

i like how much you contradicted yourself there. so you're sick of metal getting stereotyped and yet you come right out with "Just because you can play power chords and write catchy melodies doesn't mean you're talented, it just means that you appeal to 12 year old kids. All of the kids these days are trying to be "artsy" by listening to popular bands and drinking starbucks. You're not artsy, you're pretentious." do you listen to yourself? do you think about what you're saying before you make an ass out of yourself? they didn't even use powerchords for like half the album. look at the chord progression from famous last words and tell me that it's nothing but "power chords and catchy melodies." even if that doesn't appeal to you, there's a guitar solo! yes, a solo! ZOMG! so don't you dare say they aren't talented, and that they only appeal to 12 year old emo kids. have some respect. and if you're so pissed about metalheads getting a bad reputation, maybe take a look at yourself. you deserve every last bit of it.

aww why all the hate with MCR?
i was a fan back in he day and still is (not as big as when i was in 6th grade but meh)
anyway there music is still somewhat enjoyable..

But no one and I really defy anyone try proove me wrong can defend Gerrard Way for when he shaved his hair and dyed it just so he could look like a cancer patient. Before any of you fans scream oh no but the black parade was about dying of cancer. so what?! That does not give him the right to do that, if someone in the street had done that they would have got a smack.

So in conclusion my children I will not be running post haste to the nearest music store for this album unless it comes with free gerrard way punchable doll.

Yeh I can agree with some of you guys who dont like MCR (that dont want to hear them) becase they get everywhere, usually in one music magazine a week at least, having their music played the radio daily and its hard to turn on a music channel like Kerrang! without seeing their videos.

I wonder why this is true, because maybe a lot of people think they have talent, which is true- not listening to MCR before Black Parade, I was instantly hooked hen my girlfriend showed me them, then got tome listen to Three Cheers- which yet again- I enjoyed.

I know theres a lot of hate for them out there- Download was enough to prove that. But I really dont see why- on one or more levels, the music we all listen to and enjoy is somehow alike- I dont see point for seperation in something we all love.

So I hope this album turns out ok. And for people joking about emos and slitting wrists, its not ****ing funny alright? If someone is so upset they resort to that- well it dosent give you guys the privelege to come on here and abuse them for the music they like.


Dan.

[[NIN]_ROCK!]

In my opinion,The Black Parade is a pretty awesome album,it's too ambitious,yes,but it has a few points that you guys shouldn't forget:it has different moods and messages from all the pseudo-Emo crap that comes out today(buy an Alternative Press and you'll know what I'm talking about),somehow the band uses its own style while introducing some classic elements(the guitars,for example.Toro gives us some pretty decent solos,and that's not common in Emo music),even knowing that Gerard freaks me out(really,I have his poster on my wall so I can throw arrows at "him"),the kid developed his voice and attitude onstage.For a few more reasons that ain't coming to mind right now,I think we all should give this album some credit(well,nothing "new" gets a lot of credit,only when it becomes old...the Grunge era,for example:Alice In Chains and Nirvana were initially bashed by critics and stuff and now they're considered classic).
But that's just my opinion,and this is not even the type of music that I usually listen to,I'm more of an IndieHead.Anyways,Rock ON!

[MONTROSE_BOY]

It has come to my attention that here u either love mcr or u hate,i reckon there alrite...One thing that mosts bands try and acheive is attention,so that they can get more gigs,songs played on the radio/tv etc.seems like mcr have acheived getting peoples attention judging by everyones reactions.well done fellas

Seriously. Listen to what you just said. First of all you placed importance on technicallity, which isn't really that important if you consider great bands such as the clash etc, weren't exactly what you'd call very "technical".

First of all, you finish reading what I say and judge what you do say on whatever word I say first. There are hundreds of better bands musically, who produce great album after great album. Technicallity is a small aspect of bands. I can appreciate simple music, GOOD simple music. The Black Parade was terrible.
The songs were terrible. I can guarantee you that a vast majority of MCR fans are angsty teens. Before you hardcore MCR fans bash me for that, "vast majority" and "angsty teens" are the key words there.
There are bands that deserve attention, and MCR is NOT one of them.

The main point of being up in the mainstream of the musical society is so that you can model yourself to be the perfect band for a particular group of people, and besides, the critiscm, well, most of it, is coming from people that apreciate MUSIC...

not some mainstream vanity project thats tailored to fit every mini power ranger backpack wearing lord of darkness -_-.

the fanbase says everything about the band, and the fanbase of MCR are filth...

Riiight,so Britney Spears and Paris Hilton got record deals and world Tours because of their incredible talent right?I would bet a significant quantity of money that none of you will still like the band in 5 years time,you will have grown up and moved on..hence the fans are all very young, i have yet to see a single person over 16 in a MCR shirt.

[KingSquall802]

what?! they are not emo? so wats their sound?

[sens0rd]

Why did people that dont like MCR even bother wasting their time reading this? I dont see any sense, you dont like them yet you read about them here? And then you waste more time posting a comment saying they suck. Completely pointless. Just because you dont like them doesnt mean you have the right to tell other people their taste in music sucks. They have a right to listen to what ever music sounds good to them.
Oh, and Chrissy, just because someone doesnt have a band shirt doesnt mean they dont like them.
Further more, the band is NOT emo. I admit that the first album probably could have been classes as emo, but just because they wear black clothes and makeup doesnt make them emo 'wrist slashers'.. learn the definition of emo before making accusations.

I like knowing there are still people out there not following trends.

But as a fan, i can say it feels like they're cashing in while the hype is high.
But still. Cant wait.

If you don't like the band and can't even put up a decent yet intellectual opinion/comment, then I do wonder if you play guitar just to be cool or whatsoever.

I'd definatly disagree. There's other genres of music that contain entire albums of samples peiced together on laptops. Does that make them less talented? No. it's still music. Can RJD2 perform "Since We Last Spoke" live? No.

Music is subjective, everyone, and you have to realize that and gget off your e-high horses.

come on, i think its safe to say that they cant write there own music, to me they sound like every other type of band on MTV there just a boy band with instruments... well to tell you the truth they might as well be handing out record deals to anyone now a days, its better to be independent or do it yourself so that why you wouldnt have to be on the same label as MCR and what ever joke of band that is also on the label... just a few more years and this EMO scence is done. And then its back to good old rock n roll and metal classic metal!!!!

straight from wikipedia:
Reprise was formed in 1960 by Frank Sinatra in order to allow more artistic freedom for his own recordings. Having left Capitol Records, the first album Sinatra released on Reprise was Ring-A-Ding-Ding. Fellow Rat Pack members Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. also moved to the label. Stand-up comedian Redd Foxx also recorded for the label during its fledgling years. The label still issues any Sinatra work recorded while on the label and, after his death in 1998, it had great success with his greatest hits collections.

Reprise was sold to Warner Bros. Records in early 1963. In the time since, Warner Bros. has often treated Reprise as a bit of a secondary parent label, as many of its subsidiary labels, such as Straight and Kinetic, have had their records released in conjunction with Reprise.

In the late 1970s, as Joni Mitchell and Captain Beefheart had left the label, Sinatra expressed a wish to be the sole artist on Reprise, but Neil Young refused to leave. Mitchell returned to the label in th late 1980s after a stint on Geffen Records but now records for Nonesuch/Elektra. Young remains on Reprise to this day.

Today, in addition to Young, it is home to such artists as The Smashing Pumpkins, Avenged Sevenfold, The Used, Mastodon, Eric Clapton, Green Day, Fleetwood Mac, Josh Groban and My Chemical Romance. Reprise is also the US label for British band Depeche Mode.

It was formerly home to the Jimi Hendrix and the Barenaked Ladies' catalogs in the US.

and you're saying that sinatra and hendrix are jokes?

[naftish66]

ok.... that last thread by saintjimmy99 was kinda long, so can someone explain WTF you guys are talking about in a shorter way? if not I can just go on pretending that I understand, but.... yeahhhh.....
plus- i still need to listen to the new MCR singles, so can anyone help with that, I'd really appreciate it. K thanx.

And the whole gimmick of coming out on a stretcher is kinda pathetic.

I really hope i don't have to listen to My Chem on the radio and MTV everytime i turn it on, like i have been for the past year.

Years to understand a Tool album? Seriously? Give me a break. I think Tool are great musisians and I like what they do, but I can't stand the majority of Tool fans that I've met. Most of them think Tool is the greatest thing that has/will happen to music, that Tool can do NO wrong, and over analyze their songs looking for these deep complexities. Don't get me wrong, Tool writes some complex stuff, but years to understand an album? Now you just sound elitest.

and im quite happy for the next album, it should be interesting to see if they stay with the newer style they have or if they go back to three cheers... still pumped tho

come on, i think its safe to say that they cant write there own music, to me they sound like every other type of band on MTV there just a boy band with instruments... well to tell you the truth they might as well be handing out record deals to anyone now a days, its better to be independent or do it yourself so that why you wouldnt have to be on the same label as MCR and what ever joke of band that is also on the label... just a few more years and this EMO scence is done. And then its back to good old rock n roll and metal classic metal!!!!


straight from wikipedia:
Reprise was formed in 1960 by Frank Sinatra in order to allow more artistic freedom for his own recordings. Having left Capitol Records, the first album Sinatra released on Reprise was Ring-A-Ding-Ding. Fellow Rat Pack members Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. also moved to the label. Stand-up comedian Redd Foxx also recorded for the label during its fledgling years. The label still issues any Sinatra work recorded while on the label and, after his death in 1998, it had great success with his greatest hits collections.

Reprise was sold to Warner Bros. Records in early 1963. In the time since, Warner Bros. has often treated Reprise as a bit of a secondary parent label, as many of its subsidiary labels, such as Straight and Kinetic, have had their records released in conjunction with Reprise.

In the late 1970s, as Joni Mitchell and Captain Beefheart had left the label, Sinatra expressed a wish to be the sole artist on Reprise, but Neil Young refused to leave. Mitchell returned to the label in th late 1980s after a stint on Geffen Records but now records for Nonesuch/Elektra. Young remains on Reprise to this day.

Today, in addition to Young, it is home to such artists as The Smashing Pumpkins, Avenged Sevenfold, The Used, Mastodon, Eric Clapton, Green Day, Fleetwood Mac, Josh Groban and My Chemical Romance. Reprise is also the US label for British band Depeche Mode.

It was formerly home to the Jimi Hendrix and the Barenaked Ladies' catalogs in the US.

and you're saying that sinatra and hendrix are jokes?

Um no... i said MCR and the Emo bands are jokes... not sanatria or hendrix cuz i think they would MCR and the emo scence for breakfeast with a side of hair metal along with them... im speaking now not of the past but the present BS label's are producing... bands of 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s,and 70s changed music changed it for there generation, MCR and emo bands are just ripping each other off as well as era's past... fyi the Barenaked Ladies' i think kick MCR's a$$...

why does this band get so many comments about hating them?

because almost everyone does hate them. DEAL WITH IT!

there is no band that is liked by all, and this is a band that is liked by few. there is the evidence^

Everyone has an opinion on them, so what if they hate them? So what if they like them? Peoples opinions should be heard, and not deleted. Give everyone a chance to say how they feel about them, flaming or not.

This is life, u have to expect different views with the musical community. again, DEAL WITH IT!

[Decembero]

Anyway, I dont like them HAHAHAHA, they sucked supporting muse, in my opinion.

And forums are for opinions, good or bad.

[seknah]

lol, 63 removed.

[howidisappear]

There are quite a few negative comments about MCR. I don't get it, if you hate MCR so much, why are you taking the time to look up an article about them and write a fiery hate letter? a total waste of time and energy in my opinion. And if not that many people liked MCR, would they have a platinum cd? or would they have sold 240,00 copies of TBP in the first week if no one liked them? They are artists expressing their creativity through music, and does that make them good or bad? No, because there is always gonna be someone who likes them and someone who hates them. That's the way music is. No one can give an unbiased fact of why they suck or why they are geniuses. Their music does have an inspirational meaning to lots of people, and even though it might not be you, you should respect them and the music. And i hate to point this out to you, but MCR is not 'emo'. Sorry if i burst someone's bubble, but they're not. Although 'emo' is a stereotype, the style should be respected anyhow. And MCR aren't sellouts. If they were, they would've come put with a cd just like 3 cheers that they knew would sell. But they did take a big risk with the black parade, and i am eagerly awaiting the next album to see how they have rtistcally and musically they have grown.

[element_freak]

dudes, everyone likes something different. i'm 23, and i'm a huge fan of both MCR and Mozart. mcr has come a long way, and they've written songs that aren't just about homicide and suicide, but how you shouldn't turn to violence to solve anger, or how a precious memory can make your death seem much easier and beautiful, or how heartbreaking it is to find out that you are going to pass on at a young age, not being able to experience wonderful things as you get older, leaving your loved ones, and you can't do anything about it. i am so happy for them and they rock. their albums have been excellent, and i am really looking forward to the next one, because i have a feeling that it will be even more artistically ambitious than their past albums. people who bash mcr clearly don't have a life and spend 22 hours at the computer each day with a bag of Cheetos and a can of beer. and either they bash mcr because of the fact that mcr is so much better than the musicians that they like, or their favorite musicians aren't that popular amongst younger people because they are wrinkly, corny, long-haired, materialistic, and cheap people who were "in" during the 70's and 80's, and those lifeless couch potatoes just want to vent about it in an area where a band that is increasingly popular is being positively commented on. also, what the hell is up with people saying that all teenagers are bratty, artery-slitting, blind-to-artistic-talent freaks that don't do anything else besides drool over gerard when he fakes an orgasm, grabs his crotch, pulls his shirt collar down, licks his hand, sucks on the mic, and humps an amp... (yeah, i have been to a few of their concerts and i have seen a lot of that)... ?? not all teens are like that. i bet when some of you were teens, (which was like what... 5 months ago?) you went to your favorite band's concert and drooled over them taking off their shirt or doing something you find a turn-on, and maybe cut yourself, or took drugs or crap like that, but you were in the MINORITY (which would be teens who are depressed and angry) and the majority didn't do that stuff and would find contentment even in some of the saddest, roughest situations you could think of. well only SOME teens are in that minority today, but most eventually get help. the majority are somewhat happy with their lives, even if their parents are divorced, their parents don't really care about them, they're really poor, or they are disabled in some way. this part about teens is totally off track of what the comments are really supposed to be about, which is mcr making a new album, but i am just so sick and tired of people thinking that all teenagers are immature idiots and making really rude comments about that here. that's like making a teen that reads your comment want to go and slit their wrist.

[jordankeno23]

Hahaha! I'll be looking forward for that album... hmmm... what a good news for me... I thought I have been hearing about "The Black Parade" for too long now... everyone in our neighborhood has a copy of their album... Reasonable b'coz they really did well on that album... I spend about 56 hours a day and 18 days a week listening to their stuff and I never grew tired of their music... I just love these guys... I hope the album comes out really soon...

[onthelongview]

I can't wait for the next album. I think Black Parade was more the producer's doing and he forced them to restrict they're sound for it so he could have another big rock opera/concept release. With the success of the last two albums I think they'll have more freedom (and hopefulyl a different producer). For christ sake I enjoyed the B sides of black parade more than I did the album itself (not that it was bad just felt lacking in energy and emotion).
Can't wait for the next album I hope its just 12 kick ass songs instead of a concept.

[miketallica]

I can totally wait, in fact, I hope that they just give up and quit right on the spot because after Black Parade, I have seen quite enough. Not only do they attempt to rip off The Who's 'Tommy', they go and try to draw comparisons to 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. The reason BR worked and Black Parade won't is because MCR takes it way too seriously, to the point where in 30 years what will be people be singing? I'll tell you. HE'S JUST A POOR BOY FROM A POOR FAMILY. Not only am I angry at the fact that iTunes draws comparisons to Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, I have to say, who writes that shit? Sgt. Peppers is one of the greatest albums ever, and you want to compare Janet Reno to Eva Longoria in a beauty contest? The guys in MCR aren't even half the man Freddie Mercury was, and comparing Black Parade to Bohemian is a discredit to Brian May's song writing ability, and all of you should be ashamed to listening to music made by boys who wear more eyeliner and makeup than your sisters and mothers combined.

[Abby_amp]

Umm...nice....

P.S. Hope I wasn't too out of line on that one.

WOOT WOOT!
I can't wait!
My hopes for the album:
1. I loved Black Parade, but I still wish for the old material again.
2. The aggression of Bullets.
3. The songs of Bullets.
4. The chorus' of Three Cheers
5. The Distinctive sound of Three Cheers
6. The musical mind of Black Parade
7. If it is another concept album, then keep all the songs in the concept, like Black Parade. Bullets and Three Cheers both had concepts, but a half the songs had nothing to do w/ it. In Black Parade, They stuck to the point, and that is important for concept albums.

Good look w/ the writing and recording, guys.

I also think it's just wrong how people are saying how they suck and stuff. I mean, it's fine if you don't like them but do you really have to say such horrible things as if they actual did something to hurt you? But it's like bob bryar once said "If no one hates you...than your not making a difference"

one question...if you dislike mcr so much then why do you read articles about them such as this? does it really matter to you? if you dont like them then whatever, but you dont have to go bashing them on here. its just annoying.

This is pretty damn stupid. Personally I loved every album they've released and can't wait for th next one. But what's the point in insulting each other over it and stereotyping people because of it? Not everyone who likes my chemical romance is a sad, twelve year old wrist slasher, different people just appreciate different music. It's all a matter of opinion.

No one knows what it is that drives these people to show such hatred for a band...but for now, Jealousy seems to be the only answer."

Everyone who said anything bad about MCR: "F*** you!" You have no idea what their music means to some of us. They give people like me hope. I look up to them with utmost admiration. Kick-ass albums, awesome live show. Keep going boys! This news is what I've been waiting for for a long, long time.

[mka12992]

I agree about forums being good or CONSTRUCTIVELY bad. However I guess people who can't give constructive criticism don't have an idea of what the word means. I like the band a lot, in fact they are tied for 2nd in my list. I am not emo, I dont hate emos though I don't agree with their lifestyle (speaking of steriotypical emos here). In fact maybe if you people weren't dicks these people wouldn't have to "Go home and cut themselves", but that would take too much fun away from you wouldn't it?

I would have to say that this band has talent. Listen to thanks for the venom or something you people wouldn't check into. And also if you guys want to say pop punk sucks, say so after listening to the matches.

i just dont get it, i mean you ppl have listened to MCR and seen how damn talented they are why are still trying to put them out it doesnt make sense if you hate them so much then just stay away from them and if youve listened to thier albums and your looking for MCR stuff then obviously you have a secret liking for them....i dont know but i LOVE MCR!!!!! SO LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!

[JosephDowne]

MCR are a great band. And no matter the amount of hate these haters can pour out into these online forums, MCR will survive and so shall their fans. To say their not musically talented is ignorant. I dare you to try and perform the "Welcome to the Black Parade" solo. I dare you to try and sing the vocals to that same track, while simultaneously getting a crowd so overpowered with live energy their voices can be heard from every corner of the world. To say their not artistic is again ignorant. I dare you to come up with a record so powerfully moving as The Black Parade. I dare you to try and write a song with more emotion than "Cancer". The emo label has fallen off this band, live with it. They used to sing about knives, and now at the end of their new music video they're telling kids to reach out. I dare you to tell me they're still emo. And to all those saying MCR only ripped off a bunch of good bands, the sound is still distinctly MCR, albeit a little saturated in the brain juices of yesteryear's more brilliant musicians. They took working formulas, a couple of backdrop sketches of old concept albums, but gave them that distinct MCR feel. Almost like smashing together some tracks from Sgt. Peppers and The Wall with Three Cheers. And now specifically directed towards miketallica, we all know that no one can measure up to Freddie Mercury, so why bother saying it? I can take every one of your favorite bands, put them next to Freddie, and they'll look like piles of shit compared to him. And also Gerard's not calling himself new Freddie is he? He's not calling WTTBP the next Bohemian Rhapsody is he? He's not claiming that they're gonna go on to the same lengths and successes of the bands they love. He's merely calling them similar. Same thing goes for Sgt. Peppers. I, regardless of all the haters, am an MCR fan. I am eagerly awaiting their new stuff, and as any true fan, will stick behind them no matter what they release.

[JosephDowne]

And to continue on my long rant of declaration of love for MCR, I'm tired of people stereotyping MCR's fans. We're not all 13-year old girls who cut themselves. Some of us have dignity, as I do myself. I am a 15-year old guy, and I truly don't care if you go and stereotype me. You don't know me, so go on and live that kind of miserable life. I love their music, so sue me. We all have something out there that we will defend until death. We all have bands that we will do this for. MCR happen to be one of those bands for a lot of people. I'm not hear to bash the metalhead elitists. Metal is a respectable genre of music, as is all others. Whether or not you accept this fact is entirely your decision. But please, don't waste your breath or our time saying how much you hate these bands in simple one line attacks. If you hate this band, tell us why. Inform us, and I can guarantee you, a real fan will be able to explain away any glaring holes you've managed to punch through MCR's musical prowess. Now then, anyone else care to make an argument against MCR, I'm sure I can rebuke anything and everything you say. Have at it!

[mcrvampirelover]

JosephDowne you rock!!!

[JosephDowne]

Well now, with that outta my system, it's time I got back on topic. I can't wait for their new album, though I see many fans wanting more Three Cheers, less Black Parade. I actually enjoyed TBP more than Cheers, and wouldn't mind seeing another record like the TBP. But what I would love to see, is a record with a sound like their b-sides. "Heaven Help Us" and "Kill All Your Friends" are great examples for the sound I hope for, right along with the kinda-like-Three-Cheers song "My Way Home Is Through You". But if they go back to their Cheers sound, I hope they bring everything they learned from TBP with them.

[HeavenHelpUs]

JosephDowne, you're right on the money my friend. Your comments are by far the most intelligent (and correct in my opinion) to grace this page!

I got a bit bored of them after i saw them live, but ill get into them again once they realease some new songs... i hope

[worldgoingdown]

having read all the posts on here i've got to say that a new album would be good... i am not a MCR fan but the rest of my band listens (we play something that sounds like screaming monkey boner!) to them. and i think they are in between. they can either go back to where they were comfortable and put on a good sounding show with the Cheers material or go more progressive and stick to the new sound...i have an i ea that the next album is going to be alot more about playing music then making it though, if you know what i mean.

If you all hate My Chemical Romance so god damn much then why did you click on the link to this post and read it and all its comments and type mean things when it really wasn’t necessary?

I'll tell you why, its because you all probably sit around at home with nothing better to do then listen to music criticizing every little detail of a song because you have absolutely no life.

Why do you all care so much? It’s not like someone is sitting you down in a chair and making you listen to it. If you really don’t want to hear the songs then don’t buy the CD, don’t download the songs and change the radio station when they come on. We all have a choice in what we listen to so I think all the people who i have just described should get off their lazy butts and do something with their life instead of wasting it by caring so much about what everyone else is doing.

I personally think My Chemical Romance is a great band and Iam looking forward to hearing what they can produce on their next album.

somethin wrong with that date :p 06/28/2007 ?!?! is it dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy bcause normally it's dd/mm/yyyy i get confused to easily :s

[mchugh92]

meh i used to like these guys but i just got sick of them after a while, theyre not as good as people make them out to be, and gerard way needs to stop dressin up like a girl and writin lyrics about his teenage years, which werent really that bad, cos its basically what most other teenagers went through, if his childhood was like jonathan davis' for example i would understand then, but he just writes about small things and i know that the black parade was based around a guy with cancer and i respect that, but at the end of the day theyre still an extremely overrated band and wont be around forever,and this new album better be more mature than the last musically and lyrically, cos theyve never had an all-round great album IMO, three cheers lacked in production and gerards voice got annoyin at times, it had its moments still, the black parade on the other was more mature musically, but it still wasnt that interesting at least not enough to keep my attention through the whole thing, and it was seriously over-produced, the first album was prob the most annoyin of them all, it sounded like a bunch of 10 year olds, and gerards voice was at its worst on there, theyre a good band but just overrated and havent done anythin that other bands have done be4 them....

and im quite happy for the next album, it should be interesting to see if they stay with the newer style they have or if they go back to three cheers... still pumped tho

ya... i agree with you... people need to stop criticizing bands for what they do and respect it.... but it is going to be awesome to hear what kind of sound they go to... i hope they try something new, like a mix of three cheers and black parade but with a new influence... oh well im still gonna be first in line to buy it lol

^^ thats a bad joke by MCR, the album was a bit too.... linked with the DEATH. Everything was about to die and all that stuff, i'd like to have a record like "3 Cheers for Sweet revenge" mixed with their first album (i mean the way of the songs.. you know? the WAY ^^)

[]\/[R. EM0]

Ok, here is my theory, MCR will go down hill because of the lead singers hair.

look, this is how the facts are:

1. They were getting really good when the lead singer had long hair.

2. when they became extremely popular, the lead singer cut his hair. (which was the best visual part of the band.)

3. Notice how more main-stream they are getting now!
they arent all EMO any more! ]

and i dont like there music as much as i did anymore.
its not all dark and stuff as it was.
i like "black parade," and "Teenagers," but the rest of the stuff, not so much.
i would like them a lot more if the lead singer never
cut his hair agian, and they weren't as mainstream.

Dude, listen to them. get off your high horse, pause the Christina Agulera song on your iPod and download some good music. God, to think that there are people who don't like these guys actually frightens some people.

Ok, here is my theory, MCR will go down hill because of the lead singers hair.

look, this is how the facts are:

1. They were getting really good when the lead singer had long hair.

2. when they became extremely popular, the lead singer cut his hair. (which was the best visual part of the band.)

3. Notice how more main-stream they are getting now!
they arent all EMO any more! ]

and i dont like there music as much as i did anymore.
its not all dark and stuff as it was.
i like "black parade," and "Teenagers," but the rest of the stuff, not so much.
i would like them a lot more if the lead singer never
cut his hair agian, and they weren't as mainstream.

They're not emo. They never were. Gerard blew a stink about it recently on some other news article on THIS WEBSITE! get your facts strait.
