I've had a listen to a bit of it and I'm feeling it
Gonna hold off listening to much more til release day, feel like this one will be a keeper
― difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 26 September 2014 04:27 (nine years ago) link
not sure how I feel about the production yet but there are definitely some tunes in there, "Millions" and the closer really stuck out on first listen

OMG this album
― Tim F, Wednesday, 1 October 2014 23:31 (nine years ago) link
best glam album since danger days which was the best glam album since mechanical animals
― Tim F, Wednesday, 1 October 2014 23:32 (nine years ago) link
See, I'm glad YOU remember that Mechanical Animals is a brilliant as fuck glam album, some days I feel very alone on that point.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 1 October 2014 23:52 (nine years ago) link
the mid/late 90s glam revival must have been a big deal to Gerard. hell, his album title is pretty close to the title of that Spacehog album.

Complaints complaints.

hard to describe why i'm so enthusiastic about it but it's just a great pop rock record idk
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 22 September 2014 19:05 (2 weeks ago)
^^Love the way Gerard's a rebooted/fixed Billy Corgan re: US glam anglophilia; glittery Roxy-Music-at-the-mall vibes.
― etc, Monday, 6 October 2014 05:50 (nine years ago) link
In stuff like "Brother" I also get a strong Todd Rundgren in classicist pop mode vibe.
It occurred to me while listening for the Nth time today that I want Gerard Way and Sky Ferreira to team up for an album.

Been spinning this on my ipod every couple days, but just got back from my first long-haul fast-lane nighttime highway driving session with it and well goddamn.
― raccoon shipoopi (how's life), Sunday, 26 October 2014 03:36 (nine years ago) link
the live shows have also been really wonderful
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 26 October 2014 16:52 (nine years ago) link
the record really deepens the more you listen to it
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Sunday, 26 October 2014 16:53 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I've been enjoying all the show reports for sure. (And yes I did get the album and yes it is great, so there.)

I thought I had shared that over on the active s-k thread, but apparently not! Off to remedy that.

just saw him live and realize that he's the greatest guy ever. awesome speech supporting transgender people and all those who don't fit in the binary norm. and also his acknowledgment that young women take with all the shit privileged guys

Was just watching this "making-of" short for the Millions video. The director says something about how "we both decided we wanted to represent the Transylvanians".

Fuck. I guess this means we won't be seeing any new Gerard Way solo material in the near future.
― how's life, Wednesday, 20 July 2016 18:20 (eight years ago) link
could just be reissue news but i'm optimistic, even though i'd also like another gerard solo record (which iirc he was recording a little over a year ago)
― who is extremely unqualified to review this pop album (BradNelson), Wednesday, 20 July 2016 18:34 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, it's obviously going to be awesome news for zillions of mcr heads. Probably a 10th Anniversary tour for Black Parade.

― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Wednesday, 20 July 2016 18:45 (eight years ago) link
and it's definitely only a black parade reissue

When I was a young fanMy father took me into the cityTo see a touring band
He said son when you grow upWill you be the buyer of the vinylA gatefold in your hand
He said will you order themThese records, from all the eBay sellersThe money they have made
Because one day I'll join youIn the line to own it in the summerI love The Black Parade
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 July 2016 21:55 (eight years ago) link
If you hear one note of the intro, it could either be "The Black Parade", or "Children" Robert Miles.
Two notes confirms which one it is.
― Mark G, Friday, 22 July 2016 09:02 (eight years ago) link
Somehow I missed this Cave Carson related picture disc from RSD.

also I only just heard the Japan bonus tracks for Danger Days and it's criminal that they didn't make the album proper
