  • moments when they talk about what mcr means to them

    gerard: to us, it’s the greatest band in the world. and that’s all that matters to us and it’s always been that way. it’s been that way since the first practice, through the good times the bad times, everything. through the rough schedules and the no sleep. it’s still the greatest band to us. so, um, we’re in a band that’s much more than a band. and I don’t think a lot of people get to do that. we can be whatever we want we can play whatever we want we can sing about whatever we want. and we can be extremely creative doing it, because we’ve never given an explanation or an apology for being the way we are.

    “Hot music

    By Alejandro Garita

    MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE

    Following their 2 million-selling ‘Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge’, the boys are now presenting their third album. The main character of the new album, which they recorded in 2006 with producer Rob Cavallo (Goo Goo Dolls, Alanis Morissette), is someone called ‘The Patient’, vocalist Gerard Way’s strongest memory of his childhood. It’s about the day his dad took him to a parade, hence the name of their first single, "Welcome to the Black Parade.” This material is the group’s most commercial, with a punk style similar to Green Day’s. However, in songs like “The Sharpest Lives” and “House of Wolves” they retain the dark style that characterizes them. Good!

    City: New Jersey

    Influences: Besides the fact that they like watching horror movies, they listen to Queen, The Smiths/Morrissey, The Cure, Iron Maiden and The Misfits.

    The group’s name comes from a book written by Irvine Welsh, titled ‘Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance’.

    The band was formed when Gerard Way called his high school friend Matt Pelissier in 2002 to form a new musical group.

    The black parade

    fact bubbles:

    Their first song is "Skylines and Turnstiles”, written by Gerard while living in New York and inspired by the attack on the Twin Towers.

    Mikey Way, Gerard’s younger brother, dropped out of school to learn to play bass.

    En 2002 editaron su CD de- but ‘I Brought you my Bullets, you Brought me your Love’.

    They have been the opening act for Green Day.
