184 points, 5 votes

ah yeah i forgot about the inevitable death cab onslaught

I used to really like this album but I havent heard it in years.

Voted for a different Death Cab but this is a cool record i think i'd feel much stronger about if i had heard it earlier in life

the only DCFC record I really like

xxp - LBI, cool! We should all get together for beers on Friday night for the reveal of the top 10.

I liked up to and including Transatlanticism II cant remember if i liked plans or not but I think i did

the only DCFC record I really like

same

the track sequencing, particularly on the back half, is tremendous

First DCFC I heard was the Photo Album, and it might be my least favorite of their pre-Plans records. And yet, because of the time in my life when I discovered it...

50. My Chemical Romance - Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge

too low :/

too high

wayyyyy too low

perfect from start to finish

WAY too low, I was sure this would be a top tenner

can't believe it was only on 5/30 ballots!

Never listened to MCR because I always thought they were nu-metal or something. I guess I should?

you what

consider: helena!!!!!!

^^^a song so undeniable even alex in NYC loved it

hah, uh i left this off somehow. thought it was in my top 15... shuolda been.

I know the girl who played Helena in the vid. Daughter of nfl coach w@de phi11ips.

helena one of the best videos ever

Damn. Why didn't anyone tell me?

@ArchCarrier can't make it Friday but it's a good idea for sometime later!

MCR and I never gelled.

this album was my gateway into discovering that I was wrong to ignore mainstream emo

I guess I have listened to this album before? "Helena" is super familiar.

helena was EVERYWHERE. such a perfect belter

i understand why they're maligned by serious music fans bc mcr is like the quintessential hot topic band but also the album is hot fire straight thru.

also for new MCR converts do not sleep on Black Parade and particularly "Teenagers"

Ghost Of You is my fav on here

Does this mean Black Parade isn't going to place? That would be a shame.

i could be coy but honestly if it doesn't place it's not like we're coming back to it so get yr black parade comments out now imho

'Teenagers' is forever associated in my mind with the memory of tarantino telling zane lowe it was his favourite song at the time

picking my fav three cheers song is like..... impossible, but it's this one probably

lol yeah I didn't mean to make it sound like I was asking you specifically, just general worrying/angst. such a great album, rare combo of ambition and execution xxp

just every song on this album is BURSTING with melodies

"Thank you for the Venom" is so adorable, it always sounds like kiddie thrash to me (in a good way)

my fave is the closer, which I can never sit or stand still for

kiddie thrash yessss

MCR was certainly not everywhere in my part of the world: only 'Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)' and 'Welcome to the Black Parade' ever hit the Dutch top 100, peaking at very respectable places 86 and 92.

lol "Na Na Na" is so fucking good

yeah the closer is

only GO
SO FAR
to burryyyy themmmm

so DEEP AND DOWN WE GO

Wait, you don't expect The Black Parade to place higher than this? I thought that was like THE ilx emo record.

I don't know anything anymore, everything I believed in is a lie (/emo)
