official thread for My Chemical Romance - Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys

that's pretty cool to hear! i like most of the songs on this better than the stuff on the proper album, worth checking out for anyone who hasn't heard it:

i think i might put this album on literally every time i remember it exists

boy division!

"Boy Division" is good! I'd be happy w/ that as a teaser for a new record.

second pair of outtakes is out -- "AMBULANCE" and "Gun." are both great

on cursory first listen the latter seems to stray into quasi-"political" territory, not sure how I feel about this development

well they shelved it so it's not really a development at this point haha

I'm just now hearing the DD outtakes on the Mad Gear and Missle Kid EP and they're pretty good!

Tunes on CW vol. 3 are pretty huge.

Gerard put a song on soundcloud under the name 'Danny The Street,' pretty good: http://kroq.cbslocal.com/2012/12/07/my-chemical-romances-gerard-way-releases-punk-track-as-danny-the-street/

OK on sober listen "The Light Behind Your Eyes" is just too broad/soppy for me. Just a step too far into saccharine. On the other hand "Gun" remains ludicrously catchy, though I imagine they'd be in heaps of trouble had it been a single rather than a c-side.

i like all of these songs a lot but i'm also glad they scrapped them and did danger days instead

are these offcuts going to get a physical release at some point ?

As some sort of boxset, I think.

number four is out today

'kiss that ring' is very QOTSA

thanks for the heads up; #3 was the first set that did nothing for me, those guys really love their boring power ballads

Tim's Continuing Emo Adventures Part Seventeen: my god "Summertime" is just the best thing.

i am glad you are here with me on this

there is something so natural and easy to the movement of the tune, that radio sweetness

also i will forever love the whole concept's art: http://varnishstudio.com/work/danger-days

after you remove yourself from the drip, the conventional weapons eps are good methadone

Yes, the movement. The rises and falls in this tune are so seductive.

tim "summertime" is my favorite mcr song ugh

the tracklist to the hits comp underlines for me that though they had a solid run of singles, they weren't really a singles band, except for in the Black Parade era, which is funny because that's when they made their most obvious Big Statement Album attempt.

'new' song sucks, wish they'd left it at Conventional Weapons

Yeah it's not great.

“bulletproof heart” and “summertime” are the best songs in the world

yes, and also S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W

I greatly prefer the version of Sing they released for Japan

honestly i’ve made my peace with “sing.” this is their best album

I actually like "Sing"! It's "Planetary" that doesn't work for me

but yeah on balance I think you're right
